I'm afraid complicated rankings are required, and we should all be grateful for that too.
The fact is that FIRST is trying to make this as fair as possible while using a very small chunk of results. This isn't baseball where we play a hundred plus games a year, we are competing for a weekend and every effort to fairly rank us based on those results must be made. And for that reason FIRST must find and use as much information as possible. If they can step beyond 'wins' and 'losses' then they can only make things more fair.

If you don't have anything nice to say, don't say it all. I mean, I know we all get frustrated during build season, but we still need to make an effort to be polite and helpful. - Karthik [more]
