[Ansteorra-archery] Royal Huntsman

[Greg Coffman]

Um. What standards do the heavy and light communities have in regards  
to King's Champion and Queen's Champion?  The job description is  
usually spelled out the day of the event. You win a tournament and  
you're the champion. Sometimes the king picks a champion out of the  
final few fighters remaining.  Sometimes the Queen has a single  
elimination list or has the fights go to first blood. (Both are rare,  
but both have been done.)

Again, being Royal Huntsman means being the personal champion of the  
crown of Ansteorra. It isn't being the champion of Ansteorra. There  
is a HUGE difference. Please, don't try to tell the crown how to pick  
their champion. If they care enough to specify a format and a job  
description, they must care.
