I don't know about you, but I've always heard that OPR and CCWM aren't the best of statistics, and it makes sense since these are calculated by solving 6 simultaneous equations. This is why i call for The Great Database.

One thing that I'm planning on implementing with my team at Palmetto and Peachtree is a system to record the match statistics for each individual robot in each match. If we count individually how much each robot scores, we get the most accurate OPR, CCWM, DPR, and Average Alliance Contribution. It is a lot of manual data entering, but if one team at every event could put 6-12 scouters on the job of just recording one robot every match, it's possible to compile all of these into one sheet and have more accurate ranking numbers.

I call for The Great Database to begin. We can have a team or two cover each regional. Any thoughts, questions, or suggestions are welcome to be posted here.
