Our Barony has wondered what the Regional Officers really do. Besides
myself and the Herald (who has her Regional Officer for a Baroness), I
don't think anyone has talked or heard from their Regional Officer since
taking over in some cases. (This is from what I've heard people talk
about and may be overstated.) As for me, I'm still fuzzy. I know that
you appointed me, and I send my reports to you, but that's all I know.
Do they just funnel the information to the Kingdom Officers? (There is
probably some way better to ask, but this will get feedback from
officers in several regions probably.)

I have plenty of friends who would support me, but that doesn't mean I
would autocrat an event. I see no problem helping with an event, but the
headaches of autocrating (or even co-autocrating) should be left to
someone who doesn't have to worry about something as important as the
Kingdom newsletter, IMHO. The Kingdom newsletter is what defines us in
print.

Never! *smile* Just btw, do Black Stars go out in two batches? It's been
quite often that others in the Barony get theirs long before others in
the Barony. (Unfortunately I've been one of those on the late end.)

I certainly can't, and have mulled over (luckily never for long)
volunteering for Kingdom Chronicler next time around. I don't think I'm
that insane, yet.

Ciao,
