The averaging systems can be dangerous because they do not pay attention to these trends.
This is a good point, some teams show up for competition with systems that need some work while others show up as ready as they will ever be.

340 showed up with some work to do. We started 0-3 & then went 9-1 before losing 2 in the finals. The record shows 9-6 but I see, streaks of 0-3 then 5-0 in quals, 4-1 then 0-2 in elims. We have also had weeks to work out the bugs & make some changes . I love the speculation leading up to Championship & I do know that prior performance plays a part but, things can change.
