Days of Knights
Sir James A:

That's the impression I got, since it seems like we'd be confused with the actual living history "cast".
Sir William:
What do you mean, we can't wear armor? What would be the point, then? :)
Sir Edward:
I think they're trying to make the point that you can't be a "participant" unless you sign up first, and conform to the historical standards. I don't think they'd kick you out. Unless I'm not looking at the same part of the website that you guys are. :)
In terms of participant standards, it's very strict living-history, for sure.
SirNathanQ:
Well I have been part of the setup for the group for a while, and it's not as draconian as straight-up living history. They'd probably accept all of your kits. The only big thing is aluminum maille. That's the largest pet peeve of the group. I've gotten the acceptance of the group for my kit, so you guys will definatly make the cut. Some of us migh have to modify our dates a bit, but we should be fine. Hardest part for me will be the encampment part of things. Soft kit and all the fine details.

The devils in the details. If you are doing this Nathan, I can tell you from experience that these events are really fun. The people doing them are ussually very freindly and willing to share camp gear and space with newcomers that aren't that outfitted yet. I know I just picked up a tent this past fall, but before I had open offer to sleep in one of the wall tents or borrow a wedge if we did an encampment event. This surely looks like fun, I am so very tempted to skip a weekend of PaRF to come check it out.
