Calontir 52nd Crown List calling DA, DA, DA!

Post by InsaneIrish »

His Grace, Duke Valens of Flatrock for Her Ladyship, Lady Marcella the Unknown
His Excellency, Count Angelo Cavelli for Her Excellency, Countess Jane Corwin
His Excellency, Baron Angus of Blackmoor for Her Excellency, Baroness Deana MacLean
His Excellency, Baron Gawain ap Tristam for Her Excellency, Baroness Brialen Ulfsdottir Vikings
His Excellency, Baron Hirsch Ross Eichmann for Her Excellency, Baroness Magdalena vander Meere
His Excellency, Baron Duncan Bruce of Logan for Her Ladyship, Lady Ilva Jonsdottir
His Excellency, Baron Colin MacLachlan for The Dreaded Mistress Elianor de Morland
Sir Talbot of Galtris for Her Ladyship, Lady Meadbh inghean ui Shuibhne
Sir Reimond of Ipstones for Her Excellency, Baroness Mirabel Wynne
His Lordship, Lord Ignatius McGreagor for Lady Marigreg ingen Chailtigern
His Lordship, Lord Aron Helmschmidt for Her Ladyhip, Lady Cassandra Paverel
His Lordship, Lord Alaeddin Kilicarslan for Her Ladyship, Lady Kristine Nic Taillier
His Lordship, Lord Rauðr Ottarsson for Her Excellency, Baroness Conna ingen Ui Chearbhaill
His Lordship, Lord Gustav Jameson for Her Excellency, Baroness Almedha of Angelsey
Her Ladyship, Lady Cassandra Paverel for His Lordship, Lord Aron Helmschmidt
His Lordship, Lord Damien McGavin for Her Ladyship, Lady Isabell St. Charles
His Lordship, Lord Hans Krieger for Lady Aurelia Morales
His Lordship, Lord Bataciqan-nu Ko'un Ashir for Her Excellency, Countess Maerwynn of Holm
His Lordship, Lord Sean of the Chippendales for Lady Alison Maclaughlane
Lady Amba Allrasystir for Lord Hrothgar the Smith



This should be an interesting list. There is some good talent in there. However, the list of "Won before" is limited. Lots of new blood.

Infact there are only 2 in the list that have won crown before. However, the list of people that have made it to the quarter or semi finals is MUCH larger:
Baron Angus of Blackmoor
Baron Hirsch Ross Eichmann
Baron Colin MacLachlan
HL Bataciqan-nu Ko'un Ashir
HL Sean of the Chippendales


There is a significant chance that we could have an unbelted King.

Looks like a good field and very interesting that it's so light on counts and dukes. Odds are we're going to have a shiney new prince and princess this time around.

They let him in. :P

There are only 20 combatants, of which only 2 are Royal Peers, another 7 knights, and only one AoA level fighter, the rest are GoA fighters.

There aren't many Top Contenders this time around, for whatever reason. I'd say that there are 5 that could be expected to make it to the last 4, depending on the order of the pairings, of course, and there will probably be one of the GoA's in the last 4.

Ok, I can see that. But I don't necassarily think the list is weak. Only weak on royal peers. I still say there is some good talent and heavy hitters in that list. Not YOU, but others. :twisted:

Maybe you should win it and prove me wrong? :twisted:

Coming soon...Calontir Crown on Twitter...

Hi all.

I have decided to try something new, well new for us anyway. The crown
staff will be updating a tweet on twitter with current tournament
results. This way you can follow the action as it happens.

It will go something a long these lines.

aleksandr42 -> inspections started.

aleksandr42 -> court open, participant presentation started.

aleksandr42 -> court done, tournament will start soon.

aleksandr42 -> bob vs mike.

aleksandr42 -> mike wins. Joe vs john

aleksandr42 -> joe wins. Triangle Man vs Partical Man

aleksandr42 -> Triangle Man wins ect, ect ect…….

You get the idea. It's nothing fancy and in no way is it as good as
being there in person, but it should work pretty well. Well, as long as
we have a good signal at site, that's the wild card on this whole
thing right now.

You can get to the tweet by going to http://twitter. com/aleksandr42
<http> . You can follow along there( you may
need to hit refresh now and then) or you can make an account and be
updated as things come in.

Once this is done you can use your web enabled cell to track the
action(most phones have a twitter app you can install) or twitter can be
set up to send text messages to you.

You can also use your computer to do the same. I-Google has a few
different gadgets that let you use twitter and I'm pretty sure
yahoo, and things like facebook do as well.

You can see some of the apps at http://twitter. com/downloads
<http>

It's all very easy to use, I'm sure you can all figure it out.
Heck, I'm pretty sure most of you know more about this than I do.

Aleksandr :]


If DA doesn't give us odds soon, he'll have to give us updated odds on twitter so the betting can continue until the final bout! :twisted:

Hi Everyone, here are some non-twittered odds... I apologize for the lack of commentary :(

7-1 Baron Hirsch Ross Eichmann - I think this is going to be his.

9-1 Duke Valens of Flatrock - Can't count out the old Duke...

13-1 Baron Angus of Blackmoor - There are a lot of Blackmoors in the SCA. I wonder if they are all related and have like Team Blackmoor events that you have to be a Blackmoor to go to? That would be cool.

14-1 Count Angelo Cavelli - It will all depend on how much Angelo wants to win. And he will have to get by the power of Valens.

17-1 Sir Reimond of Ipstones

19-1 Lord Sean of the Chippendales - he is probably going to be the top unbelted finisher.

22-1 Baron Gawain ap Tristam

26-1 Lady Cassandra Paverel - I hope she gets Knighted soon.

29-1 Baron Duncan Bruce of Logan

30-1 Lord Hans Krieger

32-1 Baron Colin MacLachlan

36-1 Sir Talbot of Galtris

Lord Ignatius McGreagor

Lord Aron Helmschmidt

50-1 Lord Alaeddin Kilicarslan (is his lady Jasmine? Does he own a cool flying carpet?)

Over 50-1
Lord Rauðr Ottarsson
Lord Gustav Jameson
Lord Damien McGavin
Lord Bataciqan-nu Ko'un Ashir
Lady Amba Allrasystir

Enjoy!

DA
I am the Darkest!

Corcran Mac Diarmata forever has odds of -0 to win Crown, until he does his penance for his heresy against Manowar by hanging on the Tree of Woe.

My bet is:

Final 3 of 4

His Excellency, Count Angelo Cavelli for Her Excellency, Countess Jane Corwin

His Excellency, Baron Hirsch Ross Eichmann for Her Excellency, Baroness Magdalena vander Meere

His Excellency, Baron Colin MacLachlan for The Dreaded Mistress Elianor de Morland

Final 4th of 4 (One of these guys)

His Lordship, Lord Aron Helmschmidt for Her Ladyhip, Lady Cassandra Paverel

His Lordship, Lord Sean of the Chippendales for Lady Alison Maclaughlane

The next 4 might include Valens, Angus, Duncan and Reimond.

But I haven't seen any of them fight recently, so you know what body part I found this list in. ;)

+ Tasha. Having been to a couple of Calon events and seen Sean fight, HOOBOY. That man hands out heroic fights like girl scouts hand out thin mints. Cheap, fun, and it might hurt later.

Wow - I've waited so long to hear this! I couldn't be more thrilled knowing they're going to be Crown at last.
Sounds like it must have been a great final four to watch too!
