[Steppes] Philosphy of tourny

[Xue XianXian]

Actually, I wasn't trying to get into a big hairy philosophical conversation about tourney, I was simply curious about how the history of each persona fits into the idea of a crown tourney.  But since you mentioned it it does sound very interesting.  I'm not sure about a platform...I DO know they make me taller but I'm sure that's not what you meant. ^_-  If you make it, we will come! lol  It WOULD be very neat-o to have a society-wide discussion on it just to see how very different we all are, though, wouldn't it?

If your asking how the sca tourny is seen by our persona. We are very much a
creative group. 

Many heavy fighters believe that it is not their force of arms that wins the
day but the imspirations whos favor they carry that gives them victory on the
field. 

Even kingdom to kingdom their are differences on how the lists are run and the
traits a warrior must have to enter and to have victory. 

We tend to be what we see as euro centrick as a society.   The difficulty in
digging into a philisophical discussion is that philosophy is hard to keep in a
box when you start playing with it.   Its hard to not step on toes or hurt
feeling. Not to mention some people have as much interest as others would have
in proper foot placement while marching proper pike formation. Both take hours
of work to really get into and many people would rather do laundry than go
through what they would see as torcher. 

My persona would be most upset that the losers are still alive. I am haveing to
understand cultural differences from my old kingdom to a new kingdom. 

Maybe we can open a discussion page on the subject so we can get down and dirty
on the subject will not driving our fellow steppions ?  
Crazy?
Is their a platform you might like ?
