[Ansteorra] CROWN HEIRS-STUPID QUESTION

[Sir Morgan Buchanan]

As Alden says...  Our modern sensabilities would suggest to us that "second 
place" is good.  But our kingdom recognizes only 2 kinds of people in a 
crown list, those who assume the coronet and those who do not.  I don't 
believe it's about the "what if" scenarios of what might have happend "if" 
someone had fought or not.  If you want to be crown in Ansteorra, you must 
WIN a crown list.

Kind regards
Morgan
