Re: Atlantian 30 year - Combat of the Thirty
I'm actually seriously thinking of coming down for this. I think its only like 5.5 hours from me, so not that big of a trip. I have to work Monday, but can still probably get in the Sunday Bearpit then jump in the car and get home. :p Hm, where have I heard this before? I'm daytripping on saturday.

I know you are a dirty Celt and all but did you see anything about mellees on there? Nope, looks like there aren't any. I'm just the messenger! The surly, surly messeng...

Re: Known World Novice Tourney - Pennsic 40
I got hit in the cup twice tonight at practice. Once was from my former squire, one from a future squire. Neither was malicious. S%^& happens. I'm far more perturbed about the actual bruises I have, and that is entirely disappointment with myself for failing to BLOCK.

Re: Known World Novice Tourney - Pennsic 40
I don't think I have a cup shot in my arsenal with a single-handed weapon. I will sometimes spear a guy's cup while aiming for his belly or thigh. Animal Weretiger convinced me to never intentionally spear a person in their squishy parts. I do, though it is actually targeted to the belly. It occasi...

They did an amazing job as War King and Queen, fostered good will, courted the right Allies, and just played the role correctly.

Re: What was your favorite Pennsic moment?
Like Jan, this was our daughter's first pennsic (she is 3, almost 4). This really changed pennsic for me, but not in a bad way. She had an amazing time and so did I. Fighting wise this was one of my worst pennsics in a while and I don't have any epic stories to share. My only good story involves dou...

Skorri was also back at Pennsic for the first time in several years. Should be interesting to see his and Ursus's shots.

Re: [SCA] The New Pennsic Woods Battle
Truth be told all the fighting this year was lackluster. This has to be one of the most unfun Pennsic I've ever fought at (I've been going since 20) and some of the most boring scenarios.

Terrible battle this year. The side by side Res points DID NOT WORK. If you are War Staff and listening, please never allow that again. Last year was amazing. Same area, totally different battles.
