[MR] Ymir Arts and Sciences Competitions

[David Wendelken]

We had some very talented and hard-working entrants in the three Arts and
Sciences competitions I was charged with administering at Ymir.

 

My thanks to you all for providing such interesting and beautiful items to
observe and judge!

 

Here are the results of the top contenders in each competition.  The point
spread between the last several winners in the Persona Triathlon and As
Plundered competitions were so small that I would have hated to limit the
prizes to the top 3.  Thankfully, there were so many prizes to give away,
thanks to the generosity of folks in Windmasters' Hill, that I didn't have
to do that!

 

I would apologize in advance for misspelling any contestant's name, but if
they are misspelled, they have nothing but their own bad handwriting on the
entry sheet to blame. J

 

I am very pleased to note that Lady Eilon bat Miriam's name appears in the
contenders for all three competitions.

Display

======
We had enough prizes to reward one of the several great displays, even
though it wasn't a "contest".  Good art and research should always be
rewarded.

 

Meadbh the Handy

 

 

Unclaimed Prizes

==============

 

The following individuals did not appear in court to claim their prizes.  I
will happily mail or hand deliver them if the contestant makes suitable
arrangements with me.

If the prizes are not claimed by Tourney of Friends, they will be considered
as prize donations for that event's competitions.

 

Maaline Renard

Marc d'Aubigny (plus your judging sheet with comments)

And, possibly, Meadbh the Handy, but my re-memory is failing on whether she
claimed her prize or not.

 

Yours in service,
