paper: FRC Event Comparison 2009-2013

[Kims Robot]

Amazing Chart - I love this data... can't wait to see how New England stacks up! It looks like in 2013 & 2011 events were in the top 50%, but that over the years they have spanned the range (and interesting to see CT in the top 4 reg season events all but 2013). I'd be interested to see this correlated with how many NE vs non-NE teams... maybe I'll tackle that one of these days

It's also nice to actually nice to see that aside from the District CMPs that the CMP is actually still pulling "the best of the best". Not quite IRI style, but it's good to see it still on the upper end of the spectrum. Makes me feel a bit better about some of the deviation charts we've seen, but as we all move towards districts, I expect to see that get better.

Only thing I was thinking was that powerhouses tend to skew some of this, but SNR looks like it covers that. Am I reading it right that a more negative/lower SNR would indicate a much broader OPR spread (thus the likely presence of powerhouses and struggling teams)? It might be that Im looking at this before having caffeine...

Thanks for the great data!
