[Archers] IKAC (and friends)

[Siegfried Sebastian Faust]

Fellow Atlantian archers, and marshals ...

Please pardon the use of the marshal's mailing list for this missive, but I 
felt that it would garner the best response ...

The IKAC season is rapidly coming to an end, with December 1st being the 
last day.  Atlantia is making a great showing in the competition this year, 
however, a few more scores could put us over the top.

I would like to put out a call ... no, perhaps a challenge, to the archers 
of Atlantia, to in the next few weeks go out and score another IKAC round, 
especially in the areas where it is needed ...

For a quick 'recap' of the current competition:

Open Crossbow
-------------
Atlantia currently holds 2nd place!!!  Only second to Midrealm.  And we 
have a number of people on that list (myself included) who can get higher 
scores.  I'm not sure if we could overtake the Midrealm (Robert Thorne is 
just on the OTHER side of amazing), but we can sure give them a run for the 
money.

Period Crossbow
---------------
This is the BIG 'we need help' competition.  Atlantia would be in 2nd 
place, and actually giving the Midrealm a good competition - EXCEPT, we 
only have two scores currently submitted - Myself and Gregge the 
Archer.  Period Crossbowmen, please pick up your bows and score us another 
good round in this competition so that at the very least we can take our 
rightful place in 2nd!

IKCAC
-----
Don't hold your breath, but at this moment, Atlantia is WINNING!  However, 
be warned, I have heard that some kingdoms have submitted scores, good 
scores, that have just not made it onto the scoreboard yet ... so our lead 
may be in danger ... only time will tell, but it's also never too late to 
add more IKCAC scores!  (Well, until after 12/1)

Open bow
--------
Atlantia making a good showing, and has many scores in.  The East is ahead 
(as usual in this category) with an average of 304.0 ... Atlantia is 
currently running 'about' 8th place, with an average of 219.7 - The 
midrealm is 'just' above us by about 10 points ... I know we have some 
amazing bowman out there (I'm not one of them) ... perhaps we can at least 
show up the Midrealm??

Period Bow
----------
Atlantia currently only has one score submitted ... and it is about 'middle 
of the pack'.  It again would be very nice to get at least the 2 more 
scores submitted to be ranked.


So overall, please, take up your bows/crossbows in the next three weeks and 
give a good showing for Atlantia in the IKACs ... I will be doing so myself 
this Sunday ...

In Service,
Siegfried
