Lorelei had an MIT running the line. “The archers”, names withheld to protect the guilty, started doing things like moving the shooting line. The MIT told them they had to shoot from the line. The archers didn’t like that so they picked up the line and moved it back. They shot by laying on their backs, holding the bow in their feet, and pulling the string with two hands. The poor MIT was seriously perplexed. So does this mean our DEM is going to ruin the fun of “those archers”?</span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:black"> </span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:black">Cog who likes to stir the pot just to see what’s on the bottom. hahahahahahahahahahahahaha</span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:black"> </span></p><div><div style="border:none;border-top:solid #B5C4DF 1.0pt;padding:3.0pt 0in 0in 0in"><p class="MsoNormal"><b><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif"">From:</span></b><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif""> Archers [mailto:archers-bounces@seahorse.atlantia.sca.org] <b>On Behalf Of </b>jaynardone@comcast.net<br><b>Sent:</b> Thursday, April 30, 2015 2:50 PM<br><b>To:</b> pjdarby@verizon.net<br><b>Cc:</b> archers@seahorse.atlantia.sca.org<br><b>Subject:</b> Re: [Archers] Line commands.</span></p></div></div><p class="MsoNormal"> </p><div><div><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:black">Baron Colum, point well taken and this should be a notice to us all as marshals that we need to "practice what we teach!"

I have noticed that at practices where we have the usual crowd and know everyone we "experienced" marshals will not always use the standard commands. I can easily see an MIT picking up on this and, under the auspices of "How you practice is how you perform", not using proper terminology. If all marshals make an effort to ensure standard commands are used, we may see the MIT's following our example rather than our classroom instructions.
