Greetings from Mistress Emma of Elandonan,

Here is your 3rd quarter (Sept. 2004) packet letter. Packet information will continue to be available on line at http://mol.atlantia.sca.org/ePacket.html for those of you who download the current information.

• In June I wrote “The new FAQ should be up by the end of the month. I will post to the MOL List when we get it on line.” As some of you know, Mr. Computer died tragically in June due to an inadvertent lightening strike which fried his Motherboard and damaged his Hard Drive. I’m sure you all share my pain. The point is that I have been able to salvage most data by some weird computer voodoo* that I don’t really understand but the FAQ in its entirety is not among the living. Don’t give up on a valid FAQ… I will get one up eventually.
• The death of Mr. Computer means that I now have Ms. New Computer who has many bells and whistles. Unfortunately, one of the whistles keeps dragging the attachments I send to Master Roland off in to the land of lost data. We are working on this but it’s difficult because I am an amateur when it comes to computers and threatening it with a hammer isn’t working so far. There has been a data update and hopefully by the time you receive this letter I will have learned how to make my internal firewall let me send stuff to Master Roland.
• As I mentioned in my Acorn Letter the BOD has come down with new waivers for Equestrian Activities. These waivers are available on-line for those of you who down load your information. Full packet MOLs will find copies of the waivers included. Please, if you are MOLing EQ activities make sure you have the correct waiver for the state in which the activity is taking place.
• If you haven’t subscribed and have email please subscribe to the MOL List. Subscribe: atlantian_mols-subscribe@yahoogroups.com
• When you are filling out a renewal or add on weapons form for a fighter look at their old card. I’m having some issues with inaccurate weapons forms being crossed off on the VOAs.
• Full track of MOL classes at University!

Thank you so much for the tremendous work you do for the fighters and the kingdom. I’m so grateful that I have such an excellent slate of officers to work with!

Emma
