Re: paper: 2011 Team 1114 Championship Scouting Database

As always, an awesome spreadsheet.

However, I think the normalization goes in the wrong direction. It seems this year that strong regionals result in lower OPRs for teams (see MSC, for example). The reason is due to diminishing returns of the tube scoring, as well as the size of the scoring zone not allowing three excellent scoring robots to all score efficiently simultaneously. Additionally, having only two minibot poles for three robots adds to this effect.
