In which games is OPR the most accurate: Games where robot scoring is minimally interdependent. Some good factors would be a large supply of game pieces and very little defense. Also a linear relationship between robot tasks and robot scoring (like this year instead of 2011, when there were multipliers). I've heard from multiple reputable people that OPR was really good in 2008. From the numbers I've run for the past few years, it was terrible for 2009 and relatively good in 2010. It's quite good this year as well.

Not sure specifically about the correlation with Championship attendance, but I'd guess that there are too many confounding factors for the difference in those correlations to mean anything.
