We understand that we're probably a little late to schedule a second round for Ontario and Chesapeake, especially considering we're less than a week from kickoff. That's just something odd we noticed that doesn't make sense. We think it wouldn't be a bad idea to run a second Chesapeake round and a second Ontario round starting around 8:30 pm on 1/6/17 (or earlier for Ontario), but we also understand if that's too short notice.

Swamp Life has some concerns. Despite having less teams MAR has a much deeper field than Chesapeake which was dominated by a select few teams last year.

I personally feel that Ontario as a new district, that under the regional system was dominated by a small amount of teams will be the same.

All that creating double drafts for them will accomplish is increasing the likely hood of someone picking a team who has a fluke good year and getting a point bonus. That isnt skill its luck.

Basically in my opinion Chesapeake showed a shallow field and until a new district shows otherwise it should be treated as such as well.
