Subject: [Ayreton] Impromptu Rapier Games for Foxhunt VIII


Greetings All,

Since I found myself unable to take on the long drive to Rose Tourney, I've
offered to be MIC for Rapier at Fox Hunt.

I've got a melee scenario and a tourney planned, followed by pick-ups till you
drop.  I tried to stick somewhat to their viking themed event.



As always pick-ups and auths in the morning.




Herd the Sheep
Melee

Planning to use the sheep from the armour-free challenge
being held that day.   Simple idea, get
the sheep to the longhouse before others can stop you or steal your sheep.   If
a sheep is used as a parry device, it is
dead on the field and not a point anymore (so don’t kill the sheep).



“Let me see what you
got there?� Tourney

A Double Elimination tourney.  Fighters will enter the field with a chosen
weapon style, approach their opponent, and say “Let me see what you got
there?�   Fighters will declare what
style they are fighting, and in which hand in the instance they say “Offhand
Single�.  Then a coin is flipped by the
marshal after labeling one fighter ‘heads’ and one ‘tails’.   Winner of
the coin toss then picks which of
the weapon styles, of the two brought to the field, they will use.  The loser
takes the remaining style.  In the case of a style you are unauthorized
in, revert to single sword.  Coin toss
may be changed to Rock/Paper/Scissors/Lizard/Spock upon the fighter’s and/or
marshal’s whim.  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rock-paper-scissors-lizard-Spock
So Bob comes out with Sword and Cloak
And Tom comes out with Sword and Buckler

Bob wins the coin toss.  Bob chooses Sword and Buckler, leaving Tom with Sword
and cloak because either:
1) He knows Tom is not great with Sword and Cloakor2) He feels more confident
with Sword and Buckler, and isn't sure of Tom's talent with sword and Cloak, but
knows Tom is always using Sword and Buckler and is quite confident with it.



Pirate Skirmisher,
the New Viking Berserker

Get your Skirmishing in.
Taunt, harass, and enrage your opponents.  Kill your opponent and move on to the
next
one.  Get in all the fighting that you
could want.
In Service,
THL Justice McArtain

This past pennsic I upgraded my camp bed to a duck-a-licious one made
by the incredibly talented Sven and Maive. I have been using my old
camp bed as my real bed. However I got my new to me bed and matress
all set up in my room, and no longer need the old camp bed. Before I
posted it on freecycle I wanted to see if anyone in the Barony was
interested.

It is a queen size commercial slat bed with the wooden outerframe held
together with hinges. I have all the hardware, hinges, ext. The only
thing is that after using it for my real bad for the past 6 months,
the slats finally died, so you will in fact need to make your own
slats ( mine were just fencing planks held together by you webbing)

You would need to be able to pick up from Rogers Park. Please let me
know if your interested. I would much rather have it go to a good
home, then to get tossed.

In a little over 7 ½ weeks, our Southern Cousins will be hosting their
annual Crystal Ball. This year’s theme is Germanic Winters Masquerade
http://www.shatteredcrystal.org/crystalballXXIX.htm

This is always a fun event with tons of fighting, fencing, music,
dancing, and terrific food! Here are just a few photos from last
year’s event
(https://picasaweb.google.com/107177881386152930272/CrystalBall2011?authuser=0&f\
eat=directlink)

In preparation for the event, I will be doing a traditional Italian
leather mask making workshop from October 3rd – November 21st.

There are 5 parts to the class, and participants will need to come to
5 of the 8 (7 to have your mask done by crystal ball) weds night
practices. The topics covered will include
Renaissance Mask Techniques
Historical Mask Designs
Building & Designing the Mask
Molding the leather
Finishing the Edges
Dyeing/Painting
Sealing

Not going to Crystal Ball, but still interested in making a leather
mask? Don’t worry, it looks like there will be a ball at RUM and at
the KWCS.

Thankfully “The temple of the stick” has agreed to share their Weds
night site with us, which means I can handle FAR more people then I
would be able to in my little apartment. The workshop will run weds
from 7:30-8:30 in Jefferson Park area.

The class fee for the workshop is $35 and will include all the
supplies needed (molding supplies, leather, and dyes). For those that
would like to supply their own leather, the workshop fee would be $15
for the mold and mask making supplies. Though there is no maximum
number you will need to RSVP for the class, so I can make sure I have
enough supplies. To reserve your spot, or if you have any question
please email me at verena@...

This sounds just wonderful! Alas, I won't be here for any of it, given holidays
and moving to California. Is there any chance someone on this list might be
going, who would consent to videotape the classes and post them on Youtube, so
that people living at the edge of the continent could learn from Baroness
Verena?

Here's the most recent Mid-Realm Bardic Madness update.

Midrealm Bardic Madness update:
(please repost as appropriate)

We've posted some recommended hotels, for those coming from long distances.
See:
	 http://www.no-gorsedd.com/bmxiv/directions.html

In addition, I'd like to put out a renewed call for patrons and folks who'd
like to teach.

As always, there will be a number of fun challenges, the concert, and a
Scottish themed feast (no impromptu football matches with the haggis will be
tolerated!). Here's the blurb:

December 1, 1292, was a good day for John Balliol - his first full day as
King of Scotland. But less than four years later, after constant
humiliations at the hands of the English, he was defeated in battle and
abdicated. The arms of Scotland were stripped from his surcoat, giving him
the abiding nickname of "Toom Tabard" - "The Empty Suit".

Welcome to
Bardic Madness XIV: Toom Tabard
December 1, 2012

Bardic Madness XIV is hosted by The Barony of the Cleftlands at

West Shore Unitarian Universalist Church
20401 Hilliard Boulevard
Rocky River, OH  44116

The Ayreton Yahoo! Group is used to post news, make announcements, and for
discussion of interest to all groups in the Chicago area.  We encourage all
people of Ayreton to subscribe and receive email or digests, so although it is
not prohibited, please try to keep chatting to the local group mailing lists.

To prevent spam, we unfortunately require new members' first post be approved by
the moderators before being able to post to the mailing list.  (This is better
than requiring moderators to approve every member or every post individually.)

The message archive and calendar are available to the public, not just to our
members, so please be aware of this when posting messages and calendar events. 
Also, members can elect to hide their email address from being displayed
anywhere within the group.  This is done so people who wish to maintain their
privacy can still get/view the announcements for the area.  Members who choose
this option cannot post by sending email, and must log in to the Yahoo! Groups
page to post.

These policies are open to discussion, and any grievances should be brought up
to the group owners by sending email to ayreton-owner@yahoogroups.com

Discourse on this list is requested to be kept to Ayreton-wide issues such as
discussion on the Barony process, Ayreton Carnival and any other such area wide
issues.  Discourse shall be kept civil as it is entirely possible to disagree
with out being diagreeable.  Personal attacks of any kind and general rudeness
are in direct violation of this policy.  The decision if a violation has
occurred is entirely at the discretion of the moderators.  Violators will be
given three warnings and then banned from posting to the Ayreton Yahoo! Group. 
Moderators will try to give polite reminders first before giving any official
warnings, however, this is at their discretion.  Banning from posting will last
for three months and then the individual banned must draft an apology letter for
their behavior that led to them being banned.  They will then be put on
moderated posting status until the moderators feel they will comply with the
posting rules of this Yahoo! Group.  We encourage everyone to partipate in
Ayreton-wide discussions and express freely their opinions without worry of
reprisal from the moderators.  We simply ask that you do so in a chivalrous and
courteous manner and without attacking anyone.
