[Artemisia] Corrections to the Order of Precedence

[Cat]

  El Hermoso Dormiendo has midterms this week so as the unofficial  
Wormwood PR department, I will take a stab at this question real  
quick (I'm kinda swamped too and now a little late to work at the  
slave pits).  There are many reasons that something might be missing  
OR may appear to be missing from the OP.  First, no one may have sent  
a court report, or back in the days when dead tree mail was more  
common, the court report got lost.  Second, a person may have changed  
their name and the awards may be listed under a person's old name.   
Wormwood may not know about name changes since Wormwood is usually  
the last to know...  There's no official mechanism to tell Wormwood  
about name changes.  If your award info is split between two names,  
drop Wormwood a note and let him know.  It's an easy fix.

Corrections.  There's a pile of corrections, literally under my  
elbow, that were collected at a handfull of events last your that I,  
Wormwood's Wife, need to get finished with inputting.  Those are my  
fault, not El Hermoso Dormiendo's.  It's a handwriting thing...   
(***Embarrassment here***).  If there's time, Wormwood sometimes  
sends a papercopy of the OP to an event for people to mark up with  
corrections.  Those should get inputted quickly except for when his  
wife screws up...

Errors or ommissions in the OP can not be fixed when Wormwood does  
not know about them.  Right now, there is no FORMAL mechanism or  
online form for correcting the OP.  The best way to deal with  
omissions, however, is to tell Wormwood, who can then try to do  
something about it.  If you have corrections for the OP, send email  
to El Hermoso Dormiendo.  It's direct and it's usually fast unless  
there's something that needs to be checked.  Remember, many things do  
need to be checked (award fraud is real, unfortunately).  Also,  
remember that it is not Wormwood who is responsible for reporting  
awards.  Wormwood only maintains the database.  Reporting and  
validation by law is ultimately the responsibility of the King and  
Queen (or Baron/Baroness, for baronial stuff) who gave out the  
award.  The paperwork end of things is often delegated to the herald  
who heralded the court in which the award was given, but sometimes,  
if the delegation is not clear or was forgotten, things can fall  
through the cracks.  Running and holding a court is often chaotic and  
accidents of forgotten paperwork sometimes do happen. Please be nice  
to the people who "do" court for you, the populace - it's a lot  
harder and more complicated than it looks.  It's not about looking  
pretty, though it might look that way ofttimes - but what it really  
is, is the public business of the kingdom and from the Kink and  
Quwink on through to the invisible, unheralded and hardworking lords  
and ladies in waiting, it's a hard working collective asked to do  
tasks many don't even realize have to happen for a court to work  
properly.

If there are gaps or corrections in the OP, email Wormwood and he'll  
see what he can do.
