Week 5 results are out. It is in version 5e.

Caution: There are some discrepancies that has not been resolved in the data from usfirst.org website.

Silicon Valley finals match score not posted
North Star finals match results incomplete
Troy match 78 results not included in QS numbers

When resolved, they will be updated in future posting.

I will be busy at Michigan State Championship and will not be able to setup links for other regionals for Week 6. I will post results of Week 6 after this weekend.

Oddly enough they are. Match 2 was actually a 0 to 0 win for the Blue Alliance. Blue ended with a score of 0 after penalties, but Red had a DQ so they lost, forcing a third and deciding match.

Thanks for letting me know. That was strange. I can't tell and my spreadsheet can't tell who won that match when it is 0-0. I thought that was a tie and required a 4th match that was not posted. I knew the outcome from the Awards page.

Can you manually edit the spreadsheet to have something like 0.000001 as a score? I am not familiar with the spreadsheet and do not have Excel installed on this computer otherwise I would check.

Week 6 results are out. All previous missing and wrong data from FIRST have been corrected and incorporated in this version. Keep in mind that the True World Ranking is from the whole season's performance and not an indication of strength going into Championship. The latest OPR may be a better indication of that.

I will be posting another file once the division data is out. I will also add the web links to the divisions on Thursday so teams can update the OPR numbers during the competition.

Let me know if you have any questions.

Like! Ahead of Saturday, too.

If you go the very first post in this thread and click the link you will be brought to a page with a number of different versions of the database on it. The latest one is "Team 2834 2011_Scouting_Database week 6 "

Here is another copy of the link in the first post:

The divisions data is now included. I fixed the calculation for weighted average for 2011. You can select the option you prefer to rank teams.

Today is tax return due date. I looked at the number of downloads for the presentation file that explains the scouting database. Guess what the number is. (1040)

Thanks, Ed!

Can you please explain in more detail the calculation on the WM Results tab, column G, "Wt. Avg. CCWM", when calculated in "default" mode? How is that number obtained? How is the weighting done?

Here are your Top 25, sorted by that metric:

Code:

Here is the quick answer directly from the macro.
Code:

    Case 2 To 7
        Range("G1").Select
        ActiveCell.Cells = "Wt.Avg" + cword
        For i = 1 To numrow
            rscale = 0
            rvalue = 0
            For j = 1 To numcol
                If (a(i, j) <> "") Then
                    If (a(i, j) <> 0) Then
                        rscale = rscale + 1 / (mcal - week(j))
                        rvalue = rvalue + a(i, j) / (mcal - week(j))
                    End If
                End If
            Next j
            If (rscale <> 0) Then
                rrvalue(i) = rvalue / rscale
            Else
                rrvalue(i) = -99
            End If
        Next i

When using default, mcal=7 means the weighed average is projected to Week 7. Basically the idea is earlier weeks has less weight than later weeks based on number of weeks to the projected week.
To translate this to English for the exact formula, it will have to wait until I have time after work.

Thanks, Ed. I thought it was a "what have you done for me lately" kind of deal.

Another question, one you've been asked before, likely. When I attempt to open your spreadsheet in Excel 2003 (I have the Office 2007 compatibility pack), it always seems to freeze up.

Is there a way to get your spreadsheet to work as an Excel 2003 xls, or perhaps is there a way to re-save it in another 2007 format such that it can be opened in 2003?

I assume it is a space issue since Ed already has to zip it for CD to accept it and Excel 2003 format would be significantly larger. It would be nice if someone could figure out what part of the spreadsheet crashes the 2003 converter (I suspect the OPR Results sheet with all its buttons and some of the colors don't exist in Excel 2003 :rolleyes: ).

I have had success opening the spreadsheet in a new Windows version of OpenOffice. I was then able to copy (to Excel 2003 format) the WorldRank sheet and all its precious data :)

I tried many different ways to save it to Excel 2003 format but it crashed every time no matter what I did. I tried taking out all the colors and macros that I can find but it still crashed.
Yes it was a space issue. The file got too big with more teams and more events. I also added the World ranking sheet.
Does anybody know what the file size limit is?
