[MR] War of the Wings III

well since crusades was canceled due to lack of interest and some issues
with the site it made no sense to keep the weekend protected with no event
scheduled.  replacing a dead event with a viable one seems like good policy.

Umm, under Kingdom law this weekend is a protected weekend reserved for
Kingdom Crusade.  While I grant you that an event CAN be scheduled on a
protected weekend with the explicit permission of the Crown and Kingdom
Seneschal, I have to wonder why this war could not be scheduled on a "free"
weekend, particularly since there would presumably not be a problem in
booking the site on other weekends.

This is not the first time that WoW has done this.  Last year it pushed Fall
University from its assigned weekend which caused no end of difficulties for
quite a few folks.

One really has to ask why have "protected" dates in Kingdom Law if they are
not actually protected, particularly in a case like this where Crusade and
WoW are events of closely similar types and audiences.

Greetings to all those gathered on these lists from Gisela, event 
steward of War of the Wings III

It is my extreme pleasure to officially announce War of the Wings III 
will take place on Oct 9-12, 2008 at the Elchenburg Castle near Elkin, 
NC. Gate will open at 5 on Thursday and close at noon on Sunday.

Last year there was some question about points and winners and missed 
calculations and . . . well . . .  Ok, it was just too much fun, we had 
to come back and do it again!

Their Excellencies Black Diamond will assemble their army and allies 
upon the Castle field against Their good friends Their Excellencies 
Sacred Stone who will likewise assemble artists, archers and armed 
assailants to settle the score.

Come help. Come cheer. Come enjoy.

Watch for more information. Contact me if you have any questions that 
are burning in the back of your brain . . . about War of the Wings . . 
.

be well and see you there!
