[Elfsea] Defender/PED's and the Calender

[Ceatta o Gulcleth]

Why this big discussion about PED's when we can't even get our act together
for a simple demo?
 
Oh, well, this shows me the level of commitment in our Barony....

Greetings Elfsea!

An excellent slew of ideas have been offered up on this topic already and I
feel obliged to
add a few of my own.  
 
To begin, I agree that the 'quality' of events has seemed to have diminished
a little over the 
years.  Our southern and northern cousins are no longer drawn to join us in
our once well 
known revelry.  This thing has been effected by the cost of gas, yes, but
the problem had 
arisen quite a bit before we had this economical shift.  The main complaint
was that 'Elfsea 
wasn't fun enough anymore'...That, my friends, is our own fault in a way
though I feel that 
blame may be too harsh a word to place upon any of us.  It seems that we've
simply 
forgotten how to make the events more interesting by allowing ourselves to
settle into our 
current state of familiar comfort.  I have, however seen quite a few good
ideas on how to 
'shake the tree up again' out there and I commend you all for taking a new
interest.
 
I think that more single day events would be an excellent idea or even
dropping Spring Faire 
for a kingdom event but suggest an optional 'off calender' fun event to take
it's place.  Singe 
day events probably won't pull in anyone else but the locals right now
anyways.  Few people 
can afford to day trip from afar, seeing it as not worth the effort and
cost.  Is there any 
reason we couldn't simply make a greater effort and try for both?  I can
promise myself to 
the attempt once our big dumb white dragon gets out of the vet.  
 
Forgive me if I ask too much for I may be making an unreasonable request
without 
knowledge enough to know better.
