Nope ... and i dont think it will be. Traditionally Ansteorra does not require letters of intent (however the last few crowns have) and due to that tradition the entrants are not known until the morning of crown when you get to the site.

I know him pretty well. Fought him numerous times. I just find a fourth win pretty impressive.

:oops: erm, it's an indelicate question, and for that, I beg pardon, but... I thought he was recently wed to Olivia de Calais? Forgive me if I'm behind on who's with whom...?

No. They were only dating for a while. They haven't been a couple for a bit. And he and Lisette are not a couple.
Yers,

Any word on the other finalist? And the quarter finalist?
Sometimes you get the Duke you need instead of the one you want.

I finally got my video uploaded last night about midnite.

Goto youtube ... search for "digitalsquire" (my username on there).

Please forgive the crappy (shaky) video ... i forgot my tripod at the house.
Also forgive the sniffling my allergies were going crazy and i had forgotten my meds at home.
I and my lady are new to video taping fighting so my vids should get better with time.
The reason i got the new video camera is an attempt on my part to watch my own fighting and get better but since i was out in the first round i thought i would get some more people.

I was able to get my fight along with pretty much the quarter finals on:

Quarter Finals:
Sir Corwin vs Baron Alejandro (bye)
Comte Jean Paul vs Sir Ysfael
Duke Ulstead vs Jarl Hrafn
Duke Aaron vs HL Evangelos

Round Robin Semi Finals:
Duke Aaron vs Jarl Hrafn vs Sir Ysfael
Due to 3 combatants in the semis a round robin is fought the first person to lose 2 points in a row is out of the tourney.

Finals:
Duke Aaron vs Jarl Hrafn

Some great fighting :)
Hrafn fought well all day but ran into a Buzzsaw in the final. I havent seen Duke Aaron fight that well and that hard in a while. Duke Aaron had a great day.
