If you say "gullible" slowly enough it sounds like "oranges."

> Proposed Kingdom Calendar Change Proposal

> There are several problems with the current Kingdom Calendar:
> March is the snowiest month of the year in Artemisia. Nine out of the 
> last fourteen March Coronations have had travel impacted by snowstorms.
> There are five months required of the Heirs. Which makes for a long 
> and expensive year, along with lame duck issues.
> There is a lack of pre-bid Coronations. Which makes a scramble to find 
> good sites on short notice. Artemisia is the only Kingdom that still 
> does this.
> That leaves us with three options:
>
> Option 1: Maintain the current Kingdom Calendar. March/September 
> Coronations, April/October Crown Tournaments, Champions in mid-late 
> Summer, and Kingdom Collegium in November.
>
> Option 2: Move Coronations to January/July (specifically MLK weekend 
> in January and 2nd weekend in July). Move Champions to Labor Day 
> weekend. Move Kingdom Collegium to May.
>
> Option 3: Move Coronations to April/October, move Crown Tournaments to 
> May/November, and move Kingdom Collegium to January.
>
> Options 2 and 3 will include opening Coronations to pre-bid falling 
> into the Kingdom rotation cycle based on geography.
