Thanks for posting this Antonio, there doesn't seem to be a huge difference in the point distribution and rankings. As as mentioned in earlier posts in this thread, it's tough to factor strength of schedule/event into the scoring system. Hopefully the points ranking committee is going to reconvene after seeing the system in action after a year and talk over some of the pros and cons. Strength of events is something that is larger than just what we see here in MAR, you see it are regionals and probably other Districts too. Maybe it will even out a little if District swapping comes to us in the future? Will certainly be tough to balance.
