ARN - While we're talking about the new cards...

[Drew Nicholson2]

...

Without intending any offense to anyone involved in the writing of the text
of the card...

...

ok.  Obviously someone must have thought that this was cute and funny.  And
I bet it was.

The first 50 times or so.

My _boring_ MidRealm card says something like:  "Be it known that [name]
known in these Current Middle Ages as [sca-name] is authorized to
participate in the following fencing related activities:"

And then has check marks next to various forms, etc.  The new MidRealm Uber
Card (which has everything combat related on it) probably says close to the
same thing...


I guess my first qualm would be "What if that had to be read into the record
in a mundane Court of Law setting or something?"

"This Card is your Official Okey-Dokey to Participate on the Combat Field at
SCA activities.  It must be presented to the List Officials to Register for
Participation.  You  may be Required to Show It to the Marshals at Any
Time."

precisely what it says, complete with inappropriate capitalization.

| Okay....I've got to say it.

| The "Okey Dokey" makes me cringe, too...
