  • Azurea of Crying Heavens reminds everyone to bring money for feast this Saturday.

Blackspire

  • The Autocrats of Rosewood Have refused to accept donated Live steel prizes, This spawns a debate on the mailing list about whether it is safe to have Live Steel at Amtgard. (Note from the autocrats: we did not refuse to accept live steel. We said we would prefer not to make all prizes live steel, as the general opinion of previous years' winners is that they would prefer "something more useful").
  • Until very recently there was no part of the BS corpora that required people to be over the age of 18. Their current Champion is 17. There is also some confusion about having closed champions tourneys.

  • The free sword program is going on this event! If you bring a newbie to their first event, they can come to me and get a free sword. This program is to get new people out to our events. I think that if new people come to events then we usually "hook" them. This "program" does cost me a lot of money so please do not take advantage of me. If you know that the person has already taken a sword from past events please do not send them to me again.

  • Sir Zigful Sai Yuk Passed away last week. Funeral services will be held at Tanglewood Forest in Corsicana, Tx on Saturday. At the Services, I will have a scrapbook with pages for everyone to sign. You can also add comments and memories, or poems, writings, drawings, photos, or pictures to the pages. I would like to give this scrapbook to Tammy and Dawn, Zig's sisters, and his parents, to express, in a creative way, how much we respect and love Zig. The scrapbook has 50 pages, so it will hold a lot of memories to share with them. If you would like to email me something to print, I will add it to the pages. You can then sign it on Sunday. Or you can bring something with you, and I will have my glue dots or photo glue to put things into the scrapbook. Even your signature and a few words will add a lot to this book. If you can't make the service, you can email me, and I will include your words. -Dame Tangeena
