No, not quite, this is a slightly different computation. I'm trying to answer the question "how much value does each robot contribute to its alliance?"
In most (qualification) matches robots operate reasonably independently from one another. This makes my question a lot easier to answer -- if robots don't influence each other's performance, then each robot should contribute (on average) the same score to any alliance it plays with. So I've got one variable per team -- how many points it contributes to its alliance -- and I'm trying to solve for the set of values for these variables that comes closest to predicting the actual match scores.
The listing above is my estimate of how many points each robot contributes to its alliance (given no interaction with other robots)
