So it appears I may be stepping up to finish off this particular reign, as our present monarch would prefer not to do so. No worries, no fault anywhere. He's overdue for a break as is, anyway, as I understand.
In any case, I'm posting this thread as a forum for suggestions for the new reign. I'm thinking the root of our present issues is lack of people, so I figure the best way to go about fixing it is simple: New people.
So, suggest some ways for new people. I'll start.
The homecoming parade is coming up rapidly, and we've had some good success with recruiting people there. I believe it'll cost us about 70 dollars or so, if I remember correctly, and we'll naturally need volunteers to run around FoCo the day of the parade. Flyers, combatants, maybe some bardicy singers in a vehicle, plus banner will do alot for us.
A workshop at the park, focused on a 'back to basics' approach. How to make a good sword. A basic t-tunic, cut right on the spot. Chainmail weaving. Handsewing. Bardic, perhaps. I may do this on an A&S day, so new people can see just what us badasses can put together when our awesome is put together.
A Raider Day, to celebrate/mourn the Raider class going out of style with the new rules changes. Themed battlegame centered on the Raider class, which I can throw together with some ease.
Bring a Newbie to Work Day - Fairly simple. bring a newbie. We can put together a newbie starter kit, of a sword and tunic.
EPICN00B Day - Anyone with less than 12 credits is level 6 in a chosen class for a day's battlegame.
SKBC 101 - If I can get some warlords out, or just some teachers, we can spend part of a game day teaching the very basics to handy newbies, beyond the 'hold it upright, don't drop it', etc.
Another possibility is 'House of Flying Flyers'. Everybody gets ten flyers, and they get to post them up in amusing locations around town. Also, we need a flyer. Also, best locales get a prize.
Scare the Warlords - Craft an original weapon out of something bizarre, creative, or downright unholy. Points for actual safety, but don't stress yourself out. Effectiveness is also optional. (I miss the cow I heard about.)
Bring a Family Member to Amtgard - Wait.. no. Paul would.
Tell a Story - Quite simple, a story telling contest, of Amtgard topic. Winner gets something cool.
That's all I have in my head for now. I'll post more later.
