It was pretty clear in week 1 that 1625, 45, and 121 were the best robots last week.
111 did win a regional week 1, and they do have a long history behind them. I can see why people might have voted for them. I can also see why people might expect to see 1625 or 121 at the top. We can disagree about what criteria makes a team "the best". This list is by no means a scientific determination of who are "the best" 25 teams. I think we can all agree on that. It's just for fun... don't take it so seriously.

Edit: Just curious, how did you determine what "extreme bias" was?
