I too am confused as to why Rookies are held point wise on the same level as a Chairman's award winning team. I agree there are challenges and hurdles to jump through but considering some rookies bring home 1-2 rookie awards before even considering their robot performance, standing, and elimination results the system does seem uneven. Only time will tell, let's give it a season and see how it goes.

Ah, but we have a time machine! It's called...last year's results from Michigan and MAR! All we need is to apply the new system to last year's results and we can see how it might affect things. It won't be perfect but could be close.
