I then ordered these winning margins in ascending order. My value is simply the negative of the third number in this ordered list.



In all of my calculations, I use the OPR from the above document (I believe this is max event OPR).

I'm not sure if I'm being clear enough. I would be happy to answer any other questions you have about this.
Keep in mind the value of a goalie robot, the matches in where we were matched with two good shooters we (5137) won. There are lots of really good shooters at the finals. Might be a metric you want to calculate I think defense can be as good as offense by ruining cycles of the opposing alliance or at least delaying them significantly while our own alliance scores. We had a zero points in a match because all three robots were defense and two of our other losses was a broken robot in the mix...so that affected our overall stats at the regional but we made an impact and earned the rookie all star. Problem with defense only is we rely on two good offensive robots to provide scoring when that happens good things do. I think with all the offensive firepower at the championships...we will be fine.

Looking forward to St. Louis!
