Re: Am I the only one who LOVED the seeding system this year?
After the 5 point fix, I agree that this system generally did a great job of ranking teams according to my own subjective take on their abilities. Sure, there were still some flukes, but in general far fewer than in years past. Under this system, a great robot that has bad luck in one match (a dud battery, a one in a million flip) can still seed high even with a loss or DQ.
