Re: paper: 2006 Niagara FIRST Public Championship Scouting Database

Well from what I have seen the seed percentage is saying how much percentage of the competition you seeded higher than. Take for example 229. We seeded 6th at FLR.

Since there were 30 teams at FLR:

100% - (4(seed) / 30 (# of teams) * 100) = ~83%

the iner part gives you a the percentage of teams that did better than you. so just subtract that number from 100 and you get the number of teams you did better then.
