ST - Feedback on moving fighter practice?

[Mordock von Rugen]

This is a valid point, of course.  However, I think it's more important to 
support those folks we have playing regularly than to stay in a place that's 
not as good, in hopes of more "returnees".  I'm sure if you hadn't found us 
at Flagpole Hill, you'd have found us some other way - especially with the 
SCA being on the Internet, now....

I spent about 3 years away from the SCA at one point, myself.  And found the 
SCA again without any trouble once I got interested again, without the help 
of the Internet (this was 1989).
