Quote:I tried before to sell Dan the idea of trying to get a meeting (maybe online) of some of the senior reenactors (not me) and seeing if they couldn't hammer out some sort of concensus.[size=150:1ntvpraw]N[/size]o poll... Dan DOES appear intent on this. Hey, I don't know ANYTHING about reenactors -- especially American Reenactors... the thing is, I DO feel something like this would help, IF it was loose and FUN and useful to it's members... not some dictatorial thing that tries to order everyone around ;-(
I failed.
Dan appears intent on imposing his vision.
Perhaps he will attract a following among those new to the hobby, but I think many who have dedicated years of effort to Roman reenating will be left with cold feet. (even if wearing udones)
Has anyone started a poll question on this?
Best, DMV
