I'd really like to get more people fighting once the weather improves. A lot of people that are supposedly in the realm already could really work on showing up to practice. (everybody should know when and where practice is) I've been talking to all of my friends that seem interested in beating the crap out of each other. And I'd I may have a few more people comeing out in the spring, if they keep coming is anther thing.

Fenris I would come out if I had transportation.. But I am not of age to battle. But I would be more than happy to help people practice on the side and get the crap beatin out of me. And my name on here pretty much gives away that I am a female. But I would really like to come out there and have fun. Maybe I can bring some people out there to fight. I'm sure I can find a few or more people to join Arnor. And to answer your question on how to get more people why not advertise? Might be a suggestion.
Well I'm Out. hit me up with some notes... Later |

Well, I think every now and then Amtgard goes round to local colleges doing demos and such, that could be one way to boost membership. I don't know about the feasability demoing for high schools, tho, that'd probably be more of a hassle than getting a green-light from Meramec or UMSL.
I'd think Boy Scout troops would be another good place to recruit for future members a couple years down the road (I thought the BSA thing we did the beginning of fall went over real well). One thing that the old Dragonslayer's did that I thought was a good idea was they had tournaments throughout the year that doubled as membership drives. Anyway, any kind of recruitment thing that comes up I'd gladly be in on if my schedule allows. And yeah, the female gamer population is a tad sparse 'round these here parts. BTW, have you heard from Spoon at all? Ai! Varda, Elentri! Lavaly macilinya apair ter calya ve tanen anafairi!

high schools may not be a bad idea, I know that's when I started fighting. But you're probably right about the too much trouble. Maybe keep an eye out for local Cons and do that. I know we didn't even attempt to demo at
Name-That-Con or archon (whichever is in collinsville) last year. Cons are probably one of the best places to go for recruiting. As for women out there, at least ones of age, I don't know how many chicks are really cool enough to want to fight. P.S. I saw spoon for new years, I've got his # and shiznit if I had to get intouch w/ him. but I haven't really seen anybody since I starteed working graveyard shift. Fenris Out

I tried to get some peeps from UMSL interested...but some of them don't like the idea of getting up early (early, ha) for it. Some of them were noncommital, and nearly all of them just plain forgot about it.
Basically, they're all talk and no show. There's one guy who seems keen on joining the fun...but I'm not sure if I want him there. Heh. Well, I suppose I'll try harder. -Buyu Okami, your comrade-in-arms P.S. Who's Spoon...? |

1) My sis will be fighting once she is 16.
2) If we can talk those in power to let her fight now, she will fight now. 3) She wants to fight 4) She turns 16 during Arm and will be fighting there. 5) Did I mention she wants to fight? 6) She was at the Pack opener, were you? ~~ ~I've been injured, give me a yellow tabard~

OK OK OK cut me some slack. I work sunday nights so I won't be able to go to 1 day events out of town especially if they are on sunday. I'm barely able to stay awake to fight on sat afternoon, and I get to go home and sleep as much as I want then. But I'm already planning on going to Spring War, Armageddon and next Octoberfest. Are thier any more events that "we" (arnor) usually go to? so I can plan ahead of time for?
It's good to see a few people trying to recruit new "cult" members. Walker Army Ranger is DONE w/ his enlistment sometime early april and will be going to Spring war w/ me. ( I think) but he'll be out on the regular guarnteed. Stash: when is your sisters birthday mine is the week before Arm. And She is a start, what about the fiancee (sp) ? she down to kick your ass too? And theresa trust me I totally understand people B.S'n on showing up, but hey at least you're trying. And if everybody trys then eventually a few people will be out to check it out. And Spoon is a buddy of mine from high school, he used to fight w/ Varno, Derek, Steve, Walker Army Ranger and I at Warlords. Varno asked about him, not sure why really. Fenris Out

Not sure as a realm what we will go to.
Personally I will be trying to get to: Spring War, Melcorme, Beltain, Arm, Summer War, Equinox, and Octoberfest. Yes: that would be why my knees are messed up Fenris (see Bele board) Sis's b-day is June 17th No, Angie doesn't want to fight. She won't be going to events with me either. We need to wait until it gets warm enough to fight every Sat before we try to get tons of people out. I think that's all. ~~ ~I've been injured, give me a yellow tabard~

Re: Ohhhhhh I see how it is | ||

Damn that is A LOT of events.
And I totally agree, wait until the weather gets better to start getting people out, shoot I don't even want to get out there 1/2 the time in the winter except when a 60 degree day breaks 2 months of crappy weather. Fenris Out

Spoon... | ||

Just thought to ask about him 'cause I think Mark or Obi mentioned trying to bring him out and was wondering if you'd heard anything.

Kinda pointless for me to post, really.
But y'know, it's like being somewhere other than home, work, or school... You might as well. Er, yay, more girl fighters! If only one more. -Buyu Okami, your comrade-in-arms |

I wish to fight but however I do not turn 16 until october.. which sucks donkey arse. As for the weather being so cold I might have a splended idea... That's if you would like to hear my idea.. altho it might not be so splended after all but it would be worth a try.

Re: Ha! | ||

Well spit it out already, probably could have told us in the same time it took for you to type abbout it.
there is allways octoberfest (which by the way Walker has banned me from calling it that anymore, he told me to call it Geekfest instead.) Fenris Out

Hmm...mudfest would probably be a better term just because of the history of RAIN RAIN RAIN
