The IKAC scores for Lochac could do with some improvement and I know that Lochac has more Period Archers out there. It would be great to see more and more people choose to shoot period and also shoot the IKAC to elevate Lochac’s rankings.

As such, I shall be providing a prize to the highest scoring period archer in IKAC this season. The prize is a hand crafted pewter drinking vessel which will comemorate the victory. To be in the running you will need to make sure your scores are entered into the Lochac IKAC online scoring system at http://scores-sca.org/.

The season ends in December and I shall forward the prize to the worthy archer once the final scores have been added.

10 am at the Club, $5 for non-club members.

Oh my! I have just found a wonderful new site and will be pestering our Kingdom Deputy Archery Marshal and a few other people for us to take advantage of it. The site is a Known World wide Archer score database, something which I was attempting to convince a friend to help me get going on a small basis for Politarchopolis. Whilst this site isn’t as extravagant as what we were planning, it will certainly do what I want it to do which is provide a number of leader board type score tables for a populace.

As such I have already contacted the powers that be, to convince them of the benefits of this site and offered my help in getting it running. We’ll see how this goes, as my last web project for Archery in Lochac failed dismally when the dodgy forum software that was the only software I could find that would allow integration with a mailing list failed, slowly corrupting the database over a few days, which then would not restore from generic backups as it required to be backed up utilising a special script provided. Stupidly I hadn’t gotten to that part of the software yet. When the site was rebuilt, it seemed that there was a lack of interest in getting it going again, so it fell into disuse.

Hopefully I can convince them to go ahead with this one based on the fact that someone else is cuurenly doing the job as scorekeeper and probably wants to keep that job.

Come along and enjoy a morning of Archery in Garb.
