I believe the ladies commenting here have  points they are making here: 
(More comments below quotes)

This one from a lady rapier fighter:

 I don't think I could EVER get tired of Spike.  Is that possible?

 He's gorgeous, he means Atlantia to me and everything I love about her,
and 
to be honest, I never see nearly enough of him on the battlefield.  So I
was 
thrilled when the rapier fighters had a beautiful Spike battle standard
last 
Pennsic.

 I can't speak for anybody else, but I say the more Spike the merrier!

and this comment from Mistress Drea (yet another Lady fighter):

 Spike IS the Kingdom Badge... It is a very period thing to mark things
with 
heraldry, AND to identify the army with the badge of the kingdom of 
association... YES he should be EVERYWHERE... I think we should even
slap 
one on all our enemies as we the Atlantian thugs go by :)

 Drea

The points I see are these:
1. These ladies are riled up and ready to fight!
2. They are excited and fiery proud to be Atlantians!
3. They want to see more Spikes!

To the achievement of that goal, I challenge the artisans of our fair 
kingdom to come up with the best 2 color graphic of Spike by Sapphire
Joust 
so that graphic may be borne upon all who choose to bear it at Pennsic
this 
year.

Be proud, as these ladies are, and show the Known World why Atlantia
puts 
fear into the hearts of her enemies, with just a ...Spike.

GET SPIKED!
