Hey LJ’ers. tiernen has abandoned us for Kings of Chaos. How DARE he! Let’s talk about him until he is compelled by the buzzing in his ears and the itching of his nose to come back to us.
I’ll start. Did you know he’s been in the SCA for almost 15 years and still doesn’t have his AoA or anything. He’s not one to toot his own horn, and tooting on my part is viewed as partisan tooting, so I’ll be partisan. Here’s a list of his many accomplishments:
–Atlantian rapier marshal and deputy to his Canton’s Knights’ Marshal
–Deputy Seneschal for Canton of Attilium
–Has taught 6 rapier fighters from Attilium who have subsequently gone on to authorize in the past two years.
–Maintains, mends and replaces the Canton of Attilium loaner fencing gear
–Helps out setting up tents and carrying loads at almost every event he goes to
–MIC’s for Rapier at Attilium demos
–Marshals for rapier at Baronial demos, and fights as well at these demos
–Acted as deputy seneschal and deputy chatelaine for the Western cadet branch of the Barony of St. Swithin’s Bog in Aethemearc
–Assisted with Pennsic Land Grab for St. Swithin’s Bog in 1998 (the actual Land Grab official was a one-legged guy, you see, and he had trouble getting around by himself, so Tiernen went along in an unofficial capacity to help out…there’s more to the story, but it needs to be told in person)
Like I said, he’s too modest to go around telling everyone about all this stuff. But he’s active and responsible and deserves a little recognition, don’t you think? A great holiday gift for him (he won’t get it until the spring, but it’s the thought that counts) would be to take a minute and write in to Their Atlantian Majesties an recommend Tiernen for his AoA.
Ok, who’s next? Say something. Bring Tiernen back to LJ.
