OTOH, the word 'mundane first appeared 15th Century and is derived from the 
Latin word 'mundus (world). It means 1 : of, relating to, or characteristic 
of the world and 2 : characterized by the practical, transitory, and 
ordinary: COMMONPLACE <the ~ concerns of day-to-day life>. I fail to see how 
this could be construed as derogatory especially when it is true of 
non-SCAdians in general.
