  bg: sineater called Sun. nite & mentioned that Skye_ds had whacked Jose
  with an unpadded weapon across the face, got him in the eye, or
  something. Apparently Jose was saying stuff like "shut that bird up"
  and such. A told sonar0m to get the axe. sineater was re-doing it, but
  gave it to sonar0m anyway, and sonar0m gave it to A. (in M's words
  She "just grabbed it" before he had a chance do do/say anything) A
  turned it around in her hands several times & apparently didn't
  notice it was not completely padded & had exposed PVC, then whacked
  Jose when he once again made a comment about the bird. Supposedly,
  she noticed at the last minute that either the thing was unpadded, OR
  that Jose was turning towards the axe & 'pulled her punch' so to
  speak. I don't buy that. I just think she's in such poor physical
  condition that the blow didn't do any damage. (Thank god.) She hit
  him right on the corner of his eye.

  This year's CRW was interesting to say the least. I have a lot of
  good memories to add to my HFS experience.
  
  The Monster game was pretty fun for me on the human team, the monster
  team got smashed up pretty good, there were just way too many humans
  and it ended up being a brute force game, but it was a great concept,
  and there were players that just really took it to great lengths to
  make it fun, like the monster garb that some of Drandmir was wearing,
  and some of the quasi role-play I saw. Overall I had a blast.
  
  The kvk Battlegame was not given the proper amount of time to run its
  course, however that is common at CRW seeing as the games at many
  CRWs have been called for time constraints. However, the people that
  showed up and participated really made the event fun. I had a blast
  running around as a healer with a dagger stabbing people, and an
  awesome time fighting with Bhurtok.
  
  For the KvK Battle games, Nezzerin and Drandmir deserve some applause
  for playing the alliance game masterfully and turning all the smaller
  groups against eachother, and killing everyone. It really kept the
  smaller kingdoms from forming up to kill Drandmir because they kept
  them all thinking that Drandmir was a friend and everyone else the
  enemy. Well played.
  
  Brackish Moor played their hearts out and really tried hard, even
  when faced by superior numbers and teams with more large scale field
  experience.
  
  I am dissappointed by not being made to pee blood by the archers of
  stonebridge. They promised me I would, and I never got shot.
  
  We really need to find a park with a well lit ditch field. I really
  miss the Burnet County Fairgrounds site, it had a huge field for the
  battlegames, and awesome lighting for the all night ditching. I miss
  that place. I used to go to CRW solely for the night ditching.
  
  The champions tourny was a good concept but really should have been 3
  point elimination rather than 1 point. Anyone can get lucky, and
  anyone can sluff one questionable shot. Especially when the reeves
  won't make a call.
  
  I had a ton of fun fighting however, and a ton of fun chatting and
  goofing off with friends I haven't seen in years, and noobs I just
  met. All in all it was an event made great by the players that showed
  up.

  oh, P.S. WTF was with the woman who hit kelsar in the face during the
  herald's tourny? And mad props to kelsar for not smacking her. Geez.

CRW was awesome. Hot, sunny, and fun! I actually FOUGHT! I hadn't
fought in a CRW battle before. Usually, I'm on the sidelines, making
pretty things, or singing, or just plain making a pest of myself to
the art-inclinded members of the groups out there. ;) Not this year.
I took my shield, the one everyone laughs at because it's too light
and all painted on, and I took my sword, the one Galtor made that
everyone laughs at because it's scientifically engineered to be as
average as possible, and I fought. I fought and I fought and I fought!

I was confused by the "It's Your Last Life!" followed by "Okay, it
really IS your last life this time!". I think I left the field for
good with a full life still to my name, but I couldn't really tell.
Welp, the rules say, if you're not sure, take the hit, so I'm not
upset about the choice. Gave me the chance to sit and watch for a
while. And catch my breath! LOL

Heralding the Champion's Tourney with a 5 minutes notice is... hard
to do! WHEW! @.o Talk about winging it! LOL Congratz to Ebon. Dude,
you were hilarious and well.. that axe to the face. Man! I was afraid
for you, then I thought it was staged... right up until the point
when you walked off cursing like a sailor. Ooh boy! I hope you're
okay. *hug*

Hmm... what else? Feast. I guess the only complaint was the service.
But seeing the chaos, it's mostly understandable. My DEEPEST
apologizes to anyone that I prevented from getting a meal in my
efforts to getting my own kingdom food. I was told later by members
of my kingdom that that had happened. *^^* I SO didn't realize it
then. I'm SO sorry!!!

Mike, Rita: Dude, breakfast Saturday morning was.. AMAZING!!! It was
just the thing to wake me up! YUMYUMYUM! WIthout that, I would have
keeled over for SURE!
