Re: 2014 Curie Division

A few more interesting (and for me, pretty eye-opening) statistics- Remember, that in these predictions assume that a team always scores exactly their OPR in each match, so OPR (in these predictions) is a perfect representation of robot performance.

Team 1884 has an OPR of 1.18. On their simulated performance, based solely on OPR and the matches they will play in, they will win 5 matches. Team 447 has an OPR of 74.14. On their simulated performance, they will win only 4 matches.

The average OPR of teams that win 5 matches is lower than that of teams that win 4.

There is little to no correlation between a teams ability to score and their ability to seed in the top 8.

1/2 of the top 8 scoring robots will not end up in the top 8. The 29th best robot places 5th, the third best robot places 10th, and the 5th best places 17th.
