It suggests an interesting game, which I'll call Kathri Mug.  My
off-the-top-of-my-head rules: Kathri is not allowed to tell anyone
about the mug or take any action to make it more likely to get to her.
Instead, if you see Kathri somewhere in the room, you are allowed to
pick up the mug and move it in the general direction of Kathri, but
you can't move it any closer to her than three normal paces, and then
you have to set it down safely.  (Not in the middle of the floor, for
example; you have to move sideways to the next table or other safe
surface.)  Nobody can explain to anyone else about the mug.  Nobody
can move the mug more than once.  If Kathri's mug gets back to her
anyway, the SCA wins.

If ALL else fails, like Sean Connery [1] shows up at Kathri's doorstep
Friday night and invites her to jet off to a Caribbean weekend of
romance, then she should be in Austin the next weekend and we can
deliver it then.  (Sorry, Kathri, but even Sean Connery isn't a valid
excuse to get out of a Pelican Queen of Arms decision meeting.)
