Worst Scoring System in Years

Is it really that bad to ask a team to be able to do more than just drive? It's like asking a student to do more than just show up to class... - Katie_UPS [more]

Cory,

I guess I misunderstood your argument as well. Did not you say that teams that win deserve to rank higher? If so, than raising the score of all winners would insure that. Furthermore, by continuing to use the performance as a factor in ranking we would favor the better performing teams over those that simply got lucky by being paired with a weaker opponent.
