If I recall correctly, I was the first Kings Archer to be awarded
between battles @ Gulf War, I'm pretty sure I wasn't the last. I've
also made it to the final rounds of more than a couple of Archery
Tournaments and was even the Last Man Standing once. (Not the Huntsman
Tourney but... oh well)
I've been the Archery General @ Gulf War one year when Ironwyrm couldn't
make it. I've worn the Kings Baldric as a member of his guard, awarded
after a particularly hairy Swiss Five Tourney.
I mention this so you'll know I say this with love. Smarten up. I am
really tired of CA being treated like a red headed Step child by the
heavy community and we've all worked way to hard to change that just to
be treated like red headed step children by the target archery
community. We are all Archers. Splitting up and adding new Champions
is NOT a Good Thing. Sometimes the Royal Huntsman will put Venison on
the table and sometimes Trimarians.
Do I like a tournament whose format that makes the previous rounds
moot? Not particularly, that's why I've suggested a modification that
prevents that, Target only shooters just need to be far enough ahead
that me getting a chance at an extra 20 points or so will still let them
win.
Suggesting that we put two Archers behind the thrones WILL make people
decide which THEY value more and pretty much undo untold number of years
of getting TA recognized as valuable.
