Excellent! No brews necessary, I still owe you my part for Sir Nathan's spurs so perhaps we can call it even. :)

Oh, let me know if the DVDs work for you or not. I copied them in linux, which shouldn't make any difference, but I didn't have any DVD players to check on here except on the PC and Xbox360. I'm crossing my fingers they work. :)

I will definitely be sporting some MT armor at faire this year!

Got mine!  Thank you Sir James...I'll stand you a round or two as well so...make sure you have somewhere to sit down at some point.  LOL

I tested the dvd and it works, and I have one of those cheapy portable dvd players that are limited in what they do playback.

Awesome, glad the DVDs worked. Most of the credit should go to my dad; he found the original VHS tape and did the VHS to DVD transfer for me; if it weren't for that, I couldn't have done anything. It was my pleasure. :)

Awesome. I could tell it was a transfer from VHS, with low fidelity and mono-sound, etc, compared to an actual DVD. But the copy was burned perfectly, and ran fine.


I finished watching it last night. Not a bad show! So much better than Knights of Mayhem was. No time wasted on personalty conflicts, and much more detail on the history, training, and so on. And I love that they worked some of the courtly aspect into it as well.

Truly! I just finished it this morning! Really excellent show and very well done! I especially like that they selected the namesake of our order as one of the Knights personified!  :)

This was one of my favorite things! It's not a "this is how we train people to kill people from horseback", it embodied the whole aspect of knighthood, and not just the martial one. :)

My Dad does that too...all of our old family videos have since made the transition.  Glad he did it, I would've had a helluva way finding the time...and the old videos.  lol
