Re: OPR after Week Six Events

It's ridiculous that they probably won't go to Championships. They could get lucky with the waitlist, but with Wildcards this year, it seems unlikely.
Although unfortunate for 624, it brings up an interesting question:
-What game was the most OPR-friendly? That is to ask: What year's game had the highest correlation between OPR and championship attendance?

You could probably ask the same thing (championship correlation level) for other neat parameters:
-Ranking after qualifications
-CCWM
-Auton OPR score (if we keep getting gifted with officially-recorded auton stats, this could get interesting over time, as it would provide a mathematical way to compare "how important autonomous was this year")
