So is there a set "minimum" group of events that are required? Like Crown
tourneys and coronations, plus Gulf? Add as many other events as possible,
but I would hope that no one individual would be required to be at _every_
event the Crown is at...
Up Here (tm) we are required at the 4 Crown events. That's it. Beyond that,
I let the King know what events are on my schedule, and ask if there are any
specific events he'd like me at. It all about communication. We've had some
archery champions (Principalit, not Kingdom) who have no-showed at required
events, without letting the Coronets know. Oops. Casts the lot of us in a
bad light; particularly when it's been more than one or two people.....


To follow Arthur's post. In An Tir, the kingdom champion has ALWAYS been
combat archery. Only. This year I am considering adding a target component,
as I believe we should all be _archers_. Think of how useful a Leatherman is
compared to just a screwdriver. I would thnk that the Chiv champions are not
divided into a Sword Champion and a Spear Champion. Archery is archery. I
am, however, encountering resistance with my idea. Tradition (tm) is almost
stronger than Law in many people's eyes. Purely CA people see it as an
attempt to permenently change the format to target only. Target only
shooters often complain that they get no recognition (in the form of
Champiionship) at a Kingdom level.

Can't make everyone happy...
