Should Darkshore be a coronation event for all lands?

Poll ended at Wed Sep 03, 2008 12:00 am

Yes! Adjust the reign to May to November to facilitate coronation events being held at Darkshore. Westmarch would have an independent event in November.

No! Keep the Westmarch reign running from March - September. Organize and establish independent Westmarch events.

Squire Laoric,
I agree that we aligned the events as a way to foster travel and relationship creation between the groups. To me it just makes sense to have a big event all together and maybe we could do the Shire and Barony courts Friday night or early Saturday and the Duchy and principality courts after feast on Saturday night.

That would work too. I don't really have an opinion about it, I was more just tossing out some things I see.

I think it is more important to have all of the lands engaged enough to want to coordinate events together. While it can present a logistics issue, one of the reasons for Westmarch is to promote cooperation between the groups.

Basically, though, I just want to determine whether there is enough support and benefit to rotate the reigns to make Dardshore a coronation event and whether it would facilitate a stronger bond between WM and the lands which comprise Westmarch.

Is November still a viable month for a camping event?

From a completely irrelevant OPD perspective, having a reign go from May to November, means having one that is less likely to conflict with major events held in other places. You would get more traffic from outlanders at your coronations if that were the case.

Thank you for your input Linden as that may be a point that has not even really been considered.

I know there are like 82 gazillion events on Labor Day Amtgard wide.

I have a strong interest in starting a Westmarch event in November regardless of the coronation cycle.

It occurs to me that if we wanted an event that would attract Outlanders, we should hold it during the winter, and the further south the better.

I think the point was abundance of warmth further south.
