Since FRC 4003 has 100 points and FRC 4294 has 69 points (currently 8th and 29th overall, respectively, after Week 4) it would appear that 2012 is not that hypothetical year.
I like seeing rookies compete well. Hopefully there will be a few more at MSC this year -- I recall there were at least four last year.
EDIT: just checked, there were actually eight rookie teams at MSC last year. One of them, 3539, played in the Eliminations. They were the captain of the 2011 winning alliance at Waterford.

I believe in intuition and inspiration. Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited, whereas imagination embraces the entire world, stimulating progress, giving birth to evolution. It is, strictly speaking, a real factor in scientific research.
