IMNSHO it was a good thing that this rough draft didnt quite make the send list to the two contacts and the OOC list…
SS and CP,
In your event announcement you added the following;
>3) Magic items will be checked in at the door. Items that break
>with medieval fantasy or utilize real world iconography like
>crucifixes will not be accepted.
The crucifix is heavily rooted in medieval and medieval fantasy sub culture. If your going to say something broadly interpreted such as this you should provide a broader listing of unacceptable “real world iconography”. For example popsicle swords (those with no real hilts) look a lot like light sabers, so I guess popsicle stick weapons aren’t allowed. And those that do have cross guards when held upside down look like crucifixes! So those aren’t allowed either! So much for your high combat event… as I do believe you need weapons for that.

Last time I checked the only reasons I could get a tick were listed in the omnibus. And last time i checked bad management and lack of structure by the person throwing an event wasn’t one of em.
