Re: Quick question about team standings

I'm not sure exactly what words the abbreviations stand for, but here's what I understand about the QS and RS. [Someone correct me if I'm wrong]

QS: [Qualification Standings?]
QS = 2 x matches_you_won + 1 x matches_you_tied + 0 x matches_you_lost
RS:
This is what is commonly referred to as "Tie-Breaker Points", different teams with the same QS are sorted by their RS.

RS = average of: # of points scored by the loosing alliance from each of your qualification matches.

I.E:
RS = sum(N) / #_of_matches
where N = score_of_loosing_alliance
