[Archers] Ymir & Archery

[John Atkins]

OK a proposal/subject I brought up to Janyn privately but do here now in the hopes that our numbers, and those among us with more horsepower in this club, may actually get implemented.  I suggest 2 levels of marshal warrant.  Level 1 is a warrant in one activity be it heavy, rapier or archery, whatever else.  Level 2 is a warrant in an activity BUT the individual has attended marshal classes for heavy, equestrian and archery.  These 3 as heavy would include specifics for rapier.  Archery as it would include thrown weapons.  And equestrian just 'cuz they are so different.  A level 2 warrant would mean that individual is at least familiar with the specific needs of all activities that may occur at an event.  Therefore only a level 2 warranted individual could MIC an event.  Yes, it adds a layer to the marshal program.  And yes, not everyone will want to go through the process.  But it would get rid of these marshals with 15 years MIC experience who no nothing about anything that does not occur on the heavy battle field.  And in my opinion ANY MIC of this nature is a major liability in and of themselves!

It doesn’t have to be Archery it could have been rapier, brewing, etc. I just cant get my head around how one person can derail a complete Marshallate, I just don’t see the effectiveness of that? I understand I am a cheerleader for archery, but since I approve or disapprove all warrants in our discipline, how do I get pushed aside when that decision needs to be made? Can you spell dysfunctional?

Relying so heavily on the marshalls that you won't have an activity because you don't trust many people to run them is a problem in your supervisory skills. MIC's don't have to know everything but they should know a lot.
