I'm working on an excel file to calculate ETC for a given regional, but my calculations are still a little different than those in this thread. I'll post a file later and maybe you guys can tell me what's different.
Turns out it was tweeted, sorry about that:
its short name was GA

I don't think there is much debate that 67 was an excellent first choice.
I'm not arguing that they weren't a great pick. I wanted to gain some insights. This isn't at all proving what I want it to but I'm learning.

An interesting combination is 2054 and 67.
2054's alliances put up 1050 points at MI over 12 matches
67's alliances put up 1131 over 13

2054's alliances put up 415 minibot points over 12 matches
67's alliance put up 360 points over 13

this may be a source of some problems, as expected those 50 point matches and 0 matches make a huge difference for EMC, I need to find a new way of calculating that.
Ill be looking closely at Q42, where 2054's alliance got 2nd and 4th.


2767's alliances put up 430 minibot points over 12 matches
one thing the EMC did though is deflated 2767's minibot contribution
cause their alliances put up the most minibot points at the regional.
but they had the second highest emc not the highest
