[Moo] Moo Digest, Vol 115, Issue 10

[Amie Sparrow]

Miriel,

 

As someone who used to do a fair number of baronial scrolls early in my SCA participation, I think your project would be very useful. I applaud you for taking it on. There's no reason we can't have our own litte book.

 

It was a lot easier to get to Baronial scroll information when it was on the Stierbach website. Now you have to dig for it on the Atlantia site. If someone is a newbie, it would be discouraging. 

 

I will check my old scroll information to see if I have alternate wording for Baronial scrolls.

The reasons this project seemed like a good idea when I proposed it:
 
1. The award badge images only seem to be available through a scribal version of word of mouth and even the blazonings are buried in the O and A.
 
2. I have exactly one award text verbage for each award, most of which have notations indicating they were approved by Mika and Ursula.  These used to be available on Enequy's website that held the Baronial OP.
 
3. I'm hosting a scriptorium that wants to help with court dockets, scroll backlogs, and several other projects, but the bulk of the participants are just starting out or for some other reason are uncomfortable with entirely improvising award text, much less doing that for every single scroll.
 
One easy-to-acquire document, containing all that information and tailored specifically to our barony, in a familiar format and in a central location seemed like an ideal solution.  I saw a need, so I tried to fill it.  I apologize that my desire to help has apparently caused some offense or confusion.  I would still like to see the project through, even if it will never be well received by the barony at large.

I like that there is not set text so that awards can be more personalize, less cookie cutter. That way everyone's scrolls can be tailored to them.

Like you said previously, variety keeps court more interesting.
