[Ansteorra-archery] Royal Rounds at Events

[Frank Schalles]

Well perhaps a Sunday Event should be standard for us. Then it will be
all about Archery and if there are other events to
be attended on Saturdays we will not conflict. This is exactly what
happened at Elfsea defender, we ran the RR on Sunday
from 9-11. The archery champion was delayed on Saturday from 2 PM till
almost 4 PM due to other events not being finished.
Sooo, I am just saying, let's claim Sundays, and go from there!
