The Barony of Aquaterra had All Champions this weekend. I entered for bardic, but didn't win (Lady Soelig won Bardic Champion). There was much entertaining singing, dancing, and storytelling, but I'm kinda drained from the whole "1st formally judged bardic contest" bit.
In the rapier championship, her Excellency directed the outgoing champion to fight the incoming champion in an exhibition fight with the only lethal shot being to the big toe. High marks to her Excellency. :-)
I also played a period game whose name I cannot remember. It involves a square, gridded board with 24 black pawns arranged around the edge and 12 white pawns and a white king in the center, with the object being for the white king to escape to one of the corners. Rather interesting, though not as much as chess.
