Re: MSC Team Ranking Changes pre to post MSC 2014

So, I ran a quick ranking evaluation of all the teams attending MSC and simply looked at the delta change pre and post MSC. I found some teams that had significant decreases in ranking and others that had significant increases and I was wondering why these changes occurred. Did your robot break down during MSC (107 dropped 49 in rank, 2054 minus 29) ? Did your drivers have a lot of practice post districts on a practice bot? What do you attribute your significant change in state ranking (2834 - plus 39) (910 - plus 44)? Do you think you had an "easier" or "harder" match schedule?

Are you willing to share your "secret sauce" so 3548 and others can improve for next year?

I would say it was a combination of things. We had a moderatly tough schedule that by OPR stats suggested we would be 6-6 as we ended. you can see that here http://www.chiefdelphi.com/forums/sh...pre+event+data

The field was deeper than in the districts we attended although West Michigan had many of the same teams there and was quite deep as well.

I thought we played well but did not often show how our catching ability could be usefull inbounding from a human player.

I think we were percieved as not fitting the desired position needed by the alliance captains. We didn't like it but that is how it goes sometimes.
