[Ansteorra] Achievement Discussion at Round Table

[Kimberly Langhans]

Greetings Ansteorra!

At Coronation and BAM, the College of Heralds hosted discussions about our current registration process for achievements of arms in order to get feedback on an open proposal to modify the system. I will be hosting another such meeting at this weekend's Round Table/wInterkingdom event in Northkeep so that members of the populace have an additional opportunity to learn about the proposal and provide feedback.

This meeting is NOT just for heralds! In fact, because the proposed changes will impact the achievement elements that members of the populace can register, everyone is affected, regardless of whether you have an AoA or are a member of the Peerage or Nobility. So, everyone is welcome and encouraged to attend, learn, and provide feedback.
 
The scheduled time for the meeting is currently in flux, so please check for updates onsite about the time and location of the discussion. 

Herr Andreas von Meissen, Rowel Pursuivant, has completed an analysis of period practices, as well as the practices of the Known World, and suggested some possible changes for consideration. You can read Herr Andreas' analysis at:

It is the desire of the office of Star Principal Herald to collect feedback on these proposed changes and to gather possible
alternatives from the populace.

See you at this weekend!
