[Ansteorra] question

[Nancy Wederstrandt]

  So let me ask (since Alden's note has stirred me up which I'm sure he 
didn't mean to...)

How do you as participants in arts and sciences events treat Laurels?  Do 
you know what a Laurel does at an event?  If you were given thirty people 
to judge at an event and you were given 4 hours -- how long would you 
expect the individual person to spend with each artisan?

Would you like it if you were a non-AOAer and were judged by someone who 
was an AOAer
An AOAer being judged by a holder of the Thistle?  By the Thistle by an 
Iris and the Irises were to be judged by a Laurel.  this would mean that a 
LAurel might not ever see your work until you were an Iris?  Would this work?

How would you as an individual deal with a person who wanted to rhino-hide 
his or her way to a Laurel like in fighting when fighters only see winning 
and not the process of winning?

What is your responsibility as a artisan in relating to your judge and to 
the event?

I hope you understand I'm not in one of my snitchs (grin).  I just thought 
with everyone just examining the Laurel's role what your role is as an 
artisan. Feel free to respond privately.
