Re: Week 1
Before we bring the torches to FIRST's headcourters, let's remember that the previous system was not perfect either. You could have a team that didn't make it on the field earn 2 ranking points if they had good partners. There were always teams in the top 8 that were not one of the best 8 teams. Also, there are still 3 or 4 more matches tommorrow that will help reduce some of the variability and improve the rankings.
I do think this system isn't the best, but the last system wasn't perfect either. The only thing we can do now is just work within the system. Next week when my team plays, you can bet we will only be focused on scoring; no defense (until the elmination rounds...).
