Let's make it a bit more interesting, maximize seats opposite of how the state voted in 2016 and let's keep some county split rules so its just not all baconmanders and you actually have to figure out how to do it. Baconmandering would just be guessing the final margin of the state and drawing a sink or 2 and bacon mandering the rest

DRA algorithms for those scores weren't great but we wanted to keep a base limit to prevent all out baconmanders of a state.

Also would propose California(get as many expected Trump districts),

Texas as said has a large range

Florida would be the last one, one might have to play a bit safe regarding Cubans.

I think we should have one referee and be allowed to keep our maps secret except to the referee,

Basically send your map to the referee before the election and they make a copy of it. If anyone doesn't want to make any maps rn it would be useful to have them as a referee.

Thankfully I did not bother to make a TX map lol otherwise I'd have 100% lost

Would you have gone too aggressive on the RGV im guessing?
