I agree, they were unwieldy. They also had a healthy, cross-pollenation
effect. It is noteworthy, I think, that Brion Tarragon was an early
proponent of the single peerage system for the SCA. I wonder how he feels
about that now that he's ruled in the East.
I think an occasional joint peers circle is a good idea, but I don't think
we want to make it SOP for Ansteorra. Year before last at Steppes Twelfth
Night, the Chivalry circle had 36 members. Just imagine the size of a joint
circle in such circumstances.
