[MR] pennsic independent

in my 6 pennsics i would disagree with your experience.  not with yours
individually of course but with your question.  i found the fighting and the
interactions this year to be one of the best.  the fighting was very low
stressed with very little whining.  tuchux and a few merc groups whined
around me but they always do so that was no biggie and certainly nothing
new.  my interactions with folks on the road was awesome.  much better than
any other year.  

sorry to hear that you had a different experience but hopefully the
difference between yours and mine will point out that it is what it is each
year and hopefully you have now suffered through your "bad year".  next
midnight madness come get me, id be happy to shield wall you through the
markets.  ;^)

regards
logan

I presonally thought this years war was more strained? then past altogether
...not sure if was war point thing or what but people seemed rude (had
crutches knock out from under me 2 times at midnight madness ... needed a
shield wall).. people seemed to have left earlier and strange feeling that
the whole attendance numbers were fudged by the amount of empty
camps.....anyone else feel this way?
