New vs old schedule advantages

[FRC4ME]

Glad to finally see some positive remarks about the ranking system.

One thing I did not like about the win/loss/tie system is how easily one uneven match could damage a team's chances for the top eight. At VCU, two losses usually meant your chances for top eight were virtually zero. Toward the end of Friday and beginning of Saturday, awaiting match results was extremely stressful for me, with the knowledge that a single penalty was about to decide whether my team was top eight or not.

The new ranking system seems to have removed this anxiety. It lets you just play the game, relax, and let your robot do what it's designed to do, with the knowledge that you will be ranked accordingly.

Agreed that some bugs need to be worked out, but for the most part, I think this ranking system is a step in the right direction.
