[Archers] Congratulations!

[jaynardone at comcast.net]

Im sorry Baron but I respectfully disagree, if archery is advertised at an event and many folks travel a long way to shoot that archery event, archery should be held. Barring last minute "emergencies" archery should not be just canceled due to poor or lack of planning. I will do everything I can to support and continue to grow archery in Atlantia, and asking that the autocrats hear a few more minutes of instruction will do them no harm. I understand their positions are tough and busy but this issue is something that we see repeatedly and not only in our Kingdom. You can say the words but HRM had this very issue this year so your Barony is not immune either. No one is finger pointing but rather suggesting a betterment for us all, this needs to be Knigdom wide or it is useless, I think that is a win win in my book.

I will point out again, then step out of this conversation, that you are 
assuming that there is a 'right' for archery to happen. 

If an autocrat makes a decision that precludes archery, or that impacts 
archery negatively.  That was not an 'error' on their part. 

It was their decision as autocrat to make. 

In this 'neck' of the woods, (Where both Jerry and I are from), all 
autocrats always work hand-in-hand closely with their marshals, and 
people come to an agreement.  If the autocrat doesn't feel a space 
exists that will work with their otherwise event-concept for archery. 
Then there's no archery. 

In Service, 
Siegfried 

PS.  If you want to make an 'autocrat' manual/class within your own 
Baronies, go for it.  Have at it.  But I will not back the idea of 
adding that load at a Kingdom Level.
