Yeah, teams going up is to be expected. Think of a team like 1114, who steadily (and massively) improved their performance from regional to regional. This most-recent listing is ranked by a team's last regional performance, which is very often their best regional performance. A team that did very well at their last competition but poorer earlier would have ranked below you in the earlier rankings (which were based on the whole field of robots at once), but would be ahead of you in these rankings, because these are ranked off of a team's last regional performance, like people requested.
