Clueless ones

I just refused a request from a person whose name I totally do not recognize (does not appear anywhere in my Precedence files), who was trying to join all nine polling lists for the East. Including the Chivalry and the Rose! Bub, if you live in this kingdom and claim to be a member of either the Chivalry or the Rose, and especially if you are a member of both*, trust me if I say I don't recognize your name. Nervy, I have to give him that.
(The East has no male members of the Rose. Period. Yet, anyway.)

I recall that someone failed to get it as Countess, and got it as Duchess later. Damned if I am recalling who - so, maybe, it's a brain fart. Someone ought to look that up. :-)

Date: 2006-02-23 07:02 pm (UTC)Is that like the story about the fighter practice in Dorchester - which I think I recall had the line "How do you feel about Kikes, then", or something like that?
Baron Steffan was there... for that one.
(There was Sir Koppel in Trimaris, I believe, who was attacked and hospitalized. Maybe that's the story you mean...)

Date: 2006-02-23 07:56 pm (UTC)If you compare the lists of Coronations with the list of Roses, the only person who doesn't have a Rose is Arastorm.
But.....
The list of Roses says that Fatima (of Murad and Fatima) received hers before she even stepped down.... and her list of individual awards lists only "Countess", no other awards, and no mention of anything else.
Lists of records are spotty from that era, so I can't tell you if she has it or not, or if she awarded it to herself or not.
