I know someone will probably holler at me for this, but perhaps, if so many
people really see it as a problem, we should just add a clause specifically
dealing with cell phones (there doesn't appear to be one), then enforce it?
Unevent is coming up, we could discuss it officially there.

(http://law.atlantia.sca.org/Law.html):
*10.1 Concerning Non-Period Items*
*10.1.1* Canned beverages and other obvious modern items are
forbidden at all Kingdom-level events. The one exception is that they
are
permitted within a pavilion with the owner's express permission. In this
case, those who bring the cans or other items are responsible for their
timely and discreet disposal.
*10.1.2* Smoking is forbidden in the central area of a Society
event. The central area of an event is defined as any area where people
must
be present in order to participate in the event, such as the hall where
a
feast is taking place, or the lists and the area surrounding them during
a
tournament. The autocrat shall define the boundaries of the central area
and
the autocrat shall, if possible, provide some other area as convenient
as
may be found where smoking is permitted and made safe and practicable.
Smoking is permitted in the interior of pavilion/home only with the
express
permission of the owner of the pavilion/home.
*10.1.3* The use of flash bulbs is forbidden in the central area
of
a Society event, being defined as any area where people must be present
in
order to participate in the event, such as the hall where a feast or
court
is taking place. The autocrat shall be responsible for defining the
boundaries of the central area and should be consulted before any
photography using flash bulbs takes place. Photography with flash bulbs
is
permitted in the interior of a pavilion only with the owner's
permission,
but only if this use of a flash bulb will not disturb anyone in the main
area of an event. It is hoped that anyone taking photographs at any time
will first obtain permission from those being photographed as a matter
of
courtesy.
*10.1.4* All plastic and/or modern sports equipment used by all
participants on the field of combat must be covered in a manner to
disguise
the material in an attempt to display historical pre-17th Century
accoutrements to the average passerby. This section and its subsections
will
take effect December 1, 2003.
*10.1.4.1* Water bearers are specifically exempt from these
rules.
*10.1.4.2* Plastic and other modern materials specifically
required to promote safety or those that are medically required are
exempt
from this ruling. However, every attempt must be made, in good faith,
to
disguise those items.
*10.1.4.3* Hand protection and shield edges may be made of
plastic materials. However, it is the owner's responsibility to
attempt to
disguise the appearance of those items to bring them into compliance
with
the spirit of this law.
*10.1.4.4* Participants who are residents of another kingdom
are to be considered our guests and are exempt from this ruling
provided
they meet Society minimum standards.
*10.1.4.5* Newly transplanted citizens to Atlantia are to be
granted a four month period of time to come into compliance with these
laws.
Hope this helps,
Adriana
