Then this is the one you should win, friend.

Do it.

g-

god damn knee surgery keeping me from fighting. Wish i could be there oh well next time

THL Wat - do you mean Wat of Sarum? is he on his knighthood vigil?

Good sir Knight,

I'd love to know who in this list is being fought for.

I realise that the combatants are of most interest to fighters - but their ladies and lady friends can help make, or break, their experience of the day.

Pray, who are they fighting for?

Yes. He was placed on Vigil either at Pennsic or just after.

This is Splendid News. When is he to be elevated?

Thank you Robert, my elevation will be happening on Oct 18th at Feast of the Bear. If they haven't changed their minds by then, that is

And speaking for myself, I have requested permission of Their Majesties to fight for Countess Suzanna the Unyeilding, noble mother of Count Rory Cennedi the Kid.

Outstanding news!!! Now I don't feel so bad about getting my tail handed to me at Pennsic last year Congrats and well deserved IMHO!

Final 4

Duke Edouard Beausoleil
Duke Roak of Ealdormere
Count Ed the Red for Countess Rhylyn
Sir Nigel MacFarlane for Adrielle Kerrec


Finals
Roak and Nigel

Winner- Nigel

GO Nigel!!

I remember when we put together a 10 man melee team (ok, ours was 7) at Simple Day. Man that was fun.
Oh yeah, I remember when you were put on vigil too.

Good Luck to you and your lovely Lady!

Did Quilliam fight boffer at this Pennsic? Is his real name 'Dor' or something similar sounding? He looked very talented for his age.

Adam

Quillium did fight boffer at Pennsic - his real name is Bryn. He will be 18 for Crown, we allow folks to authorize at 16 in Ealdormere so he has been fighting for 2 years with several knights including Duke Berus and Duke Aaron. He is His Magesty Etain's squire. He's a big boy with tallent for sure

GO NIGEL!

Murdock, Thanks for the support.

This Saturday I fight my first Crown Tourney for my new wife.

Prince Nigel. It has a nice ring.

King Nigel and Queen Arielle. Even better.

Hah...

But then Adrielle would be very annoyed. Not a good thing....

LOL indeed Kel.

Damn, typed too fast. My apologies.

No worries, I'm lucky I can spell my own name correctly on any given day.

Your prediction was not far off. The finals were indeed Nigel and Roak. In the end Roak won the day but Nigel fought brilliantly.

CALL MY HOUSE!!!!!

Did I read somewhere that Quilliam defeated Duke Eduoard in any early round?

It wasn't in an early round, his Grace Edouard met Roak in the first fight of the day and did end up fighting Quillium later on. Quillium took the bout.

Very cool.

I think Mistress Nicolaa posted the comment on Quillium.

We had a recently graduated youth fighter in Crown yesterday, too. The first one who hads earned our new youth fighting award.

He was not the first ever. My daughter (then Nicola, now Leonete) was, several years ago, followed closely by Duke Lucan's son, Constantine.

Sad to hear it won't be a 14th century reign, but grats to Sir Roak and good on Sir Nigel. Next one

Thanks, we have your rattan btw.

A huge Congratulations to HRH Roak!!!

Sounds like it was an awesome Tournament! Well done to Sir Nigel and all the other combatants of the day.

Most Sincerely,

Why thank you I'll figure out when to meet you two and pay you back.

It was a very energetic tournament with great speed, power and intensity shown by combatants.

HRM decided upon a single list which was indoors due to constant rain outside. The list was long but somewhat narrow which caused problems with fighters crashing into ropes. All fights were best two out of three so endurance played a factor during the day. Double elimination.

Despite there being eight Knights out of 14 fighters I failed to draw a single one. I managed to draw the two Lady fighters (Countess Kaylah and Baroness Dagmar) and our youngest fighter (Quillium who is 18) plus one bye fight. As you can probably gather I won one fight (Baroness Dagmar) and lost two. I had too much fun on the list and I was pleased with my fighting.

It was a delight to fight for my Wife for the first time in Crown.

Sounds like it was a small but deep list. Congrats to Their Highnesses and to all who participated!
