So it is a 22 hour drive to Crown this year for me. Each way.
And it looks like I am probably going.
So I was thinking, those Atlantian guys list their odds on favorites to show in their Crown lists. Does anybody want to take a crack at that for An Tir?
Even better yet, do you want to include a picture along with your picks if you have one. (The joys of a giant Kingdom) If not, that is cool too.
And one more thing. Who are some top squires to pick on in the squire's tourney.
there will also be a fighters forum and more soon.
thanks

mostly retired but still producing as a hobby.
am tired of making Titanium and 301 SS finger gauntlets
but still offer DIY shaped 301SS fingertip kits for $60 shipped.
usually can ship next day.
Is Davin in? I heard some rumblings about a drywall injury or something like that but it is hard to trust rumours over 1500 miles.
That's good stuff with the pics there mrks. thanks. I've been out to the coast enough to know a lot of the uber-dukes but there are certainly enough guys that I will want to remember after I fight them at Crown and having a picture gallery sure does help. When you can't remember a name, you can always remember a kit.
I don't have a digital picture around that I can think of to send you but I will get one and send it in soon.
This is An Tir, someone will come out from no where, who we never expected to win and become the Crown Prince. It has happened before, and they were good kings and later good knights.
Of course after all of that wind, I bet on Sven Gunnarson or his Dad if he is in for another reign.

Uhh Uther is in Antir now!!!!!. Oh my just put all your money on him. Remeber he has won the Western Crown at least that I remeber about 8 times I realy think more but I will be gess on the low side. When did move up there?

from Knoch
He still lives in the West, but has sworn fealty to the An Tir crown and asked permission to fight in crown. An Tir, like the West, as the history of allowing out of Kingdom fighters to fight in crown if they swear fealty.
Uther only won 5, he just seems like he won more He's an awesome fighter, but there are few people out there who have a serious shot at taking him out of a tourney. An Tir has a few of those.. Nicholas, Davin, Skepti, a few others. They are great fighters.

Dude that's awesome! How does the point system break down?
Back when I was baronial Champion I held Monthly tournaments, and the person who won/placed the most was awarded a personalized silk banner at the end of the "tourney season".
Rumor has it that a point system will be coming to An Tir in the near future.
(I believe that the sign up begins in Sept.)
That was what came across the Fighters list about two weeks ago.
Personally I like the idea. It would be cool to have an idea of who is a threat with a certain fighting form, and who is not. Plus it will be interesting to see who uses the points to improve in certain areas.
My understanding is that there will be seperate catagories for different weapon styles, and a over all list of points.
The tourney circuit is a really fun idea. I believe my Kingdom (Artemisia) was the first to start doing it. We actually had someone from the Kingdom of the West ask if it was okay to copy it.

That someone would be me.. not afraid to steal a good idea!
Kolfinna -- the rules as I set them up (somewhat modified from what the Artemesians did) are at www.westernfighters.org

Hark the moaning gulls around him,
Hark their shuddering calls of terror
At his fearful fighting pæan.

Ha! in second place behind Uther is his squire. Nice.

Eyvandr does fight a lot... going to the Crapaud I skipped gave him an edge, he went to semis. I'll beat him by next month, though..
It's going to be a tad harder to catch up to Uther, though. Freaking overachiever dukes

It's true that Davin had to have extensive surgery on his right arm partially due to a harmless-seeming accident that occured while drywalling. He's not down for the count however, I think that would take a couple bolts of lightning. As I understand it, he's making a careful recovery.
PS: I feel kind of bad that said drywalling was done so that my lady and I could move into his house.
(The joys of a giant Kingdom) If not, that is cool too.
