Might be the smart move...I think Saturday is supposed to be near 80.  I'm getting over a nasty little bug so I'm a little weaker than usual.  Hoping by Sunday I'm back to 100%.

I was going to actually do the opposite and go full armor Saturday and kilt it Sunday. I only got to wear my kilt once this year so far. :)

Huh, OK, I was assuming you couldn't do Saturday.

Actually Saturday looks to be cooler (75). I can do armor that day and something light on Sunday too.

I'm planning to head out there on Sunday, but likely in soft kit again, unless I get the strap on my arms replaced and have some help armoring up (and still no greaves :( ). I was sick yesterday and missed the entire day of work due to a "disturbance in the lower force", perhaps armor might not be the easiest thing to disrobe rapidly, if necessary.

Yeah, armor doesn't come off nearly as fast as soft kits, that's for sure.

Soft kit for me on Sunday will probably be my woodsman outfit or one of my early medieval tunics.

Well it sounds like Jon and Jason are talking about doing armor on Sunday. Maybe I'll do full kit Sat and half kit Sun. We'll see how it goes.

Hey, Sir James, what time is the ceremony? And it's still the 16th, right?

There was some talk about possibly changing the knighting plans.

That might be fortuitous. There's a chance I might have to work on Sunday the 16th. Sunday nights are the highest load on our servers, and our system didn't quite survive the night last night. We may be babysitting it next week.

Amongst the other things poking at the 16th not being a good date for the ceremony, I completely glazed over the fact my spurs haven't even come in yet. I think there's enough things to warrant postponing it; whether that means the 23rd (closing weekend) or another date/time is still under consideration. I have a couple options I'm looking into. Once it's set in stone, I'll post a thread.

Alright, anyone heading down the 15/16th weekend? I'll probably be there for the 16th, maybe 15th also.
