I'd like to throw in: talk to people on the team. I throw it in every year, and it is effective if done right. Just rarely done right. Of course, this is just half the story. But it helps to fill out the questions on individual matches. Most teams will tell you why they struggled in a match. It might have been the "elite" team or it might have been overall teamwork of the alliance. There might be something you haven't considered. However, you should really send one of your scouts to the pits to talk to the teams. If you use much more your being wasteful, but one is well worth it. Keep the rest in the stands getting data.

Now, I fully expect the usual 5 disagreements to follow. It happens every year, but I still think that it is a valid method that should always be brought up since most overlook it.
