Thank you to EVERYONE who was pledged their support.

Sarnac

If I can gather enough courage and if my elbow is healthy enough, then I'll try be there. I've never been in a tournament even though I've been authorized for a little over a year now--tournaments scar me.

If I do fight I'll be using a polearm, so it should be interesting to see how I fair against what I would imagine are going to be mostly sword and shield fighters.

This is wonderful and one of the fights Im most looking forward to at war this year!!

Good work Sarnac,
Now get started on the Novice Melee (or unbelt Melee) field battle.

bump

14ga SS mirror polished.

BUMPITY BUMP BUMP BUMP

One last bump for bump's sake....

See you at Pennsic!

I can't wait!!
I am very glad you are doing this tourney Your Grace.
I have been thinking more about this than the field battle...lol..mostly because I expect to die rather quickly in the field battle.
See you in a few days!!!!
In service,

I just wanted to say thank you for all of the effort that went into making this tourney happen. I was able to meet alot of the new fighters around the known world and even some in my own Kingdom that I never met. I was hoping that there were pics out there, so if you have any let me know thanks,

William Thomas

You're HOME!!!
Vivat!!!! on your prowess!!!!!
As a fellow Caer Mearian and very Proud Atlantian I had a BALL!!! at my first Pennsic I cannot wait until next year.

Malcolm MacCallum de Mofat

Well, thank you very much Malcom for your kind words. And yes I did come back early, I had a great time at War, but I was missing my kids too much.

William

Well Done William...

I spoke to your King about your prowess and heart...


For those that werent there....

William Thomas from Atlantia was in the finals of the first Known World Novice Tourney and was bested by Lord Donovan of the Middle (Dak as he is known as here on the archive...) in the Best 2 out of 3 Final round.

Thank you your Grace for speaking to my King on my behalf in this matter. Though it is but a small thing compare to what many have accomplished this war. I was very proud to represent my Kingdom, my barony, and especially my King in this tourney.

In Service to the Crown,

William Thomas
