[Archers] St. Sebastians III?????

[Cameron deGrey]

I some cases marshaling two lines can be annoying to the shooters. Last
Pennsic I had to call hold while running two lines, and both lines stopped.
Im glad they all listened but which line was I talking to? Minor I know....

Also the marshal running two lines, will likely be between the two, meaning
eyes on one at a time. We all know it only takes a second.

I am with Mungo and others on the kingdom marshals joining the cause. We
should do our best to get but in, and commitment from the other kingdoms
marshals for time on the range, even if bought with cookies.
