No it doesn't. Most anyone can sue most any time. But it does
demonstrate that the person signing had some idea what they were
getting into, or should have, since it's all spelled out there in the
documents.

So that when some bozo decides to sue the SCA 'cause he got an owie
(Yes, it's happened), the chances of *winning* the lawsuit are lower.
'What? you mean that people hitting each other with big honkin' sticks
might have some risk involved? Heavens Above! Who ever knew?'
