[Ansteorra] Stargate Bardic Championship

[Alden Drake]

Greetings unto all!
His Excellency, Robert MacFarland, Baron of Stargate, does invite all those 
performers who would come to perform for the honor and privilage of being 
counted a Bardic Champion of Stargate to join him upon the occasion of Stargate 
Yule Revel on the first day of December and the celebration of Saturnalia!  It 
has been my great pleasure to serve the barony as bardic champion, but now it is 
time for that honor to pass to another.  To select the next champion, the 
following format shall be used:

Round 1: 
Themed Round - In celebration of Saturnalia, the first round shall be a tribute 
to the Roman god, Saturn, whose reign was said to have been an age of wealth and 
abundance.  Thus the theme of this round shall be Wealth (however you perceive 
it).

Round 2:
Judges Choice - entrant submits three pieces for the judges to select which 
piece will be performed.

Round 3:
Bard's Choice - entrant performs a piece of their own choosing, which wasn't 
included in the three pieces submitted for Round 1.

Documentation (verbal or written) is encouraged for each round, but not 
required.

The time and location of the competition will be announced in morning court.

In service,
Alden Drake
Bardic Champion of Stargate
