Re: 2014 Curie Division

There are really two opposite factors that affect event to event OPR comparison. One is if an event does not have many teams that are able to possess the ball, everyone's OPR will be lower. This seems to be what George is interested in. The other is that at an event with a lot of good teams, there's only so many points you can score due to cycle time. A good scoring robot and two decent passers will likely score similar to 3 all around good robots. This reduces the OPR of the all around good robots at an event. This seems to be what Tom was addressing.
