Not as bad as 33

[msmemory_archive]

The list I have of Crown entrants is 35 people. Perhaps a little attrition will happen and they'll get down to a perfect 32 by Saturday morning.

Luckily for me, since I'm not able to take tomorrow off to make the journey, THL alethea_eastrid is going to take care of forming up the procession according to my numbered list. (Any of my readers wanting a copy of the sequenced list in advance may contact me. I might even get arm-twisted to post it here.)

ETA: OK, OK. Why not. ETA2: Corrected.

I'm feeling eld. Kenric, little brother, is the senior bestowed peer in the list, other than royal peers. Yikes!

I agree on the "moment in the sun" part. This is one of the big reasons I'd like to see a posted list with fighters and their consorts.

When I attended a Crown Tournament, I was embarrassed three times by walking up to friends of mine (from fiber arts circles, mostly) who were surprised I didn't know they were being fought for. I know of no way to find out this information other than being at the tournament, and watching the parade or paying close attention when fighters bow to the one who inspires them.

It seems odd to me that these people who inspire the fighters in Crown Tournament don't get more acclaim.

I note that I'm biased, having come from a kingdom and principality where posting the list of fighters and their consorts was long-standing tradition.

Well, this is the Cranky Old East. We didn't disclose the list of fighters before the day until about two years ago. (I'm still vaguely surprised that no one has objected to my posting the list today. Habit.)

Vivant for the Cranky Old East! :-)
