Re: top ten best teams in FIRST

This doesn't answer the question of the thread, but taking a look at recent FRC history, here's an OPR-based ranking of FRC Teams over the past 5 years (2008-2012):
1114
2056
67
987
254
25
111
1717
330
469
217

I took the average of the z-scores of the average of the teams' event OPRs. Unweighted by year or event, but each year was standardised so the data could be combined. It gave this top 11. I made it a top 11 because 217 and 469 were pretty close and there was a pretty big gap after 217. I only have easy access to the past 5 years of data. 1114 and 2056 were ahead of the pack by far. As for OPR, I think it's more trustworthy than any other easily accessible measure of success. You can find a more detailed break-down on CD-Media. That includes methodology, a summary of the more interesting data points, and the spreadsheet with ALL the teams.
