Shire Championship (Calladum)
Rules:

1.    
Everyone is able
to compete in all eight categories, provided they meet whatever
authorization and equipment restrictions apply. Each category
counts as 1 entry into the overall championship. To be eligible as
shire champion, an entrant must enter five categories. Note that it
is allowed to enter a category on someone’ behalf, and it is
also acceptable practice to hire someone to compete in your
stead.

2.    
Calladum
categories are: Arts & Sciences, Scholarly, Archery, Thrown
Weapons, Heavy, Rapier, period games and
Performance/bardic.

3.    
Each category is
determined by populace vote. Each member of the populace gets a
number of votes in each category equal to their place in the Order
of Precendence, as follows: Everyone gets 1 vote. People with
Awards of arms get 2 votes. Jambes/Goutes, etc 3 votes. Peers get 4
votes. Royal Peers get 5 votes. Sitting Royalty get 6 votes. Votes
are cumulative: Hence a Royal peer who is a knight, and a pelican,
and who also has a Goute De sange and an Award of Arms gets a total
of 19 votes per category.

4.    
Votes may be
split up amongst many candidates. Votes may be cast, for ANY
REASON, though the autocrat team would appreciate it if you would
at least consider the artistic/martial/skill related qualities of
each candidates entry.

5.    
Comments on
individual entries may be left on the backs of voting cards for
feedback.

6.    
Votes must be
turned in at midnight Saturday night.
