some scoring stats

FIRST General Forum

Take these with a grain of salt:
http://www.soap108.com/2002/stats/teamlevel/stats.cfm

Before you send feedback, we know the Averages are not being sorted correctly… trying to root cause as the code is, logically, okay.

Some caveats:

  • We do not have data on all regionals…yet.
  • Teams that rank high in say Robot stats, did not necessarily get themselves into the endzone. Imagine this: Team0 has an average of 1.0 in the Robot stats. This could mean that Team0 was always out holding onto goals, but his ally (or an opponent) was always in his endzone.

Regards,
SOAP Team
Team 108 - SigmaC@T, currently T-4th in Total Goals, out of 282 teams :wink:

I can’t seem to bring that page up. Is there a problem with the link or something?

Right now the DNS for soap108.com is down. We contacted Network solutions and they say within next 24hours it’ll be back. If that doesn’t solve issue, post again. Thanks.

soap,

just some questions: How long does it take you guys to gather data and put it up. Do you have like an entire team on it or is it just you?

whatever the answer, you ae doing a great job and I am sure it is heping multiple teams

Thanks. I found it tough to track the ~207 teams back in 1997. Now there’s over 600!

Our web pages are dynamic, meaning as soon as a record is inserted into our database, you can click Refresh on your browser, and -poof- there’s the latest and greatest stats, scores, etc…

There are 3 Motorolans, 3 Dillard HS StUDentS, 2 Taravella HS StUDentS, and some occasional outsiders. This year we had to place a limit on total team participation across Elec, Mech, SW, etc… otherwise there’d be about 5-10 more kids on SOAP. Of course when it comes time for ‘running an event’ anyone standing around looking like they haven’t a job gets conscripted for SOAP. :wink: The students do a LOT of work (10X more than if they participated on the Mechanical robot, so I’m told). From coding web pages to database design, hardware diagnostics to network configuration, most of these kids, after 8 weeks with their MotoMentors, can do it all…

Gathering WASH data is ‘sub-contracted’ out to Mike Soukup (from 111) and his helpers (74, 308, 112, 45, just to name a few)
Also, Ken Patton and Team 65 tracks GMCIA data, but they must be swamped as I haven’t heard from them in awhile.

Scoring data is from the scoring system, and if there’s a fast enough Inet connection at an event, we get data LiVE (which leads back to the LiVE web pages). EPCOT 2002 will be such an event and you can bet with Bruce, Nate, Mike, and I present, we can get SOAP P@ging to work just like in Chicago.

That’s great about the Live pages.

Unfortunaly First is doing that this year. :slight_smile:

I was watching the matches on the UTC webcast, and watching the effect it was having on the top 20, and my teams place in the seeding rounds.

I was even using the match list to plan when my team was up so I was only watching my team’s match… My boss’s didn’t mind me taking a few minutes instead of watching the whole day.

We do provide the agenda per match, something above and beyond FIRST… though no adjustments are made after the initial database dump, except that matches are time stamped of when they completed. Someday we’ll perfect the OnDeck service of our SOAP Paging notification system…

The FIRST Web pages are ftp’d from the event about every 5 minutes or so. The database is as quick as the insert record command. :slight_smile: …guess i’m just splitting hairs.
