[Archers] Kingdom Archery Champion Quiver

[John Atkins]

Fen,
Welcome to the confused and befuddled crowd!  In my experience Royal
anything, bard, brewer, scribe, etc., WAS a member of the current court.
Exceptions to that were the heavy champion and rapier champion.  Logan
choose to call this position the Atlantian Archer Champion, a name that
had formerly refered to that individual who won the day long shoot event
named such.  When he re-created that position, it actually existed
previously and I believe Samual Calvert was the first, the "other"
archer position, the one named for the individual winning the day long
shoot event, was named the Atlantian Royal Archer Champion.  Clear?  No?
More like muddy water.  So, how to keep them staight?  Easy, I just
remember than any member of the current court is the Royal whatever,
EXCEPT for the archery champion.  They are the Atlantian champion and
the "other" champion is the Royal champion.  They are reversed.
 
OK, my head hurts now.  Going away,
 
cog

"When Jonathas was the champion Logan re-instituted the archery
champion position as a member of court.  Logan choose to name this
position Atlantian Archery Champion, thus the former Atlantian Archery
Champion then became the Royal Archery Champion (this being the
individual who won the day long shoot formerly known as the Atlantian
Archery Champion shoot)."

 

This always confuses my feeble mind.  

 

The Royal's archer is known as the Atlantian Archery Champion, 

but the actual Atlantian Archery Champion is the Royal Archer?

 

er, right?

 

Seems backwards.  Makes my head hurt.  How do you remember which is
which?

 

 

Cheers

Befuddled Fen
