[Ansteorra-archery] Busy Times Coming

[ironwyrm@juno.com]

Your right it was Border War II (Too many mundane matters going on in my
head today!).  I must have missed that, I didn't hear anyone say anything
about being worried about getting injured?  The only two actions I
questioned were when one of the archers wanted to climb up on a platform
to shoot from it, after thinking it over common sense prevailed and he
decided not to, and there was poor crowd control with some spectators
wandering into the areas where the fighting was taking place hoping they
could see better (but the viewing areas were not clearly marked).

Too bad, I really enjoyed the running street battles and was very much
looking forward to doing it again (but then I like paintball too)!  It
was the high point in the combat activities as far as our group of
archers were concerned.

Disappointed,
