Tierce For Baron!!!

What really happened

2010-03-20T15:40:00.000-07:00

There has been a lot of talk about what really happened at Daffodil... well I wasn't there, but here's my opinion:

After a long, heartfelt discussion, Mischa and Meredith decided that they just could not compete with my leadership skills, charm and all around awesome Baronial qualities. I know that they meant it for the best when they decided not to continue with the Baronial bid.

It's not really surprising, because neither Mischa nor Meredith is really as adept at flattening their ears or wagging their tails as I am. In fact, not to be discriminatory or anything, but they don't even have tails. While I certainly don't advocate prejudice, everyone's got to see that this is a material disadvantage.

I wish Mischa and Meredith all the best and can only be relieved that this has come to pass. Since there were three Baronial candidates in my household, it put a great strain on friendly relations, especially since one of the other Baronial candidates actually lives with me mundanely. Now that the way is clear, I am confident that I can count on their whole-hearted support for my successful bid.

Tierce does not go to Daffodil

2010-03-14T22:54:00.000-07:00

It was a major oversight, but Tierce did not go to Daffodil. He spent the week in comfort at home, but was disconsolate to see his retinue leave. He spent a pleasant weekend, however.

Japanese website acknowledges Tierce as Baron

2010-01-19T19:54:00.001-08:00

A cartoon depiction of Tierce has assured us that a Japanese website (technically in the West Kingdom) has recognized Tierce's potential as Baron for the Upper Island.

"This dog is obviously Tierce," said one source. "Look at the coronet! Look at the Shiba markings! Just because we don't know what the website says doesn't mean that we don't know what it really means. It just proves that Tierce's influence is being felt far beyond his home Barony."

Tierce leads the charge to the Hartwood Barony

2010-01-17T17:59:00.001-08:00

Tierce discussing the proposed Hartwood Barony with interested parties.

Due to a one-of-a-kind chance offered to the shires of Hartwood, Cragmere and Ravens Ley, the three groups have the chance to become a Barony months sooner under the banner of Hartwood. Hartwood, the oldest shire of the three, has been in existence for nearly 20 years and has a good track record of participation.

Tierce has been closeted, lo these many months, hammering out the new Charter, which he assures his readers, will be much better than the old Charter. "It's going to be a lot better than the old Charter," a spokesperson assured the populace. "Tierce merely wants to make sure that he gets all the control which, you have to agree, will simplify things for everyone."

There has been some opposition from people who think that the reins of power should not be given to a dog, which shocks Tierce's supporters. "I don't know what they're talking about," said Scathach, Tierce's publicist, "It's like they can't handle the fact that their awards and ceremonies are now going to depend on whether they brought the right kind of sausage to Court."

Accusations of speciesism are currently tainting the Baronial race, as some people are raising the question of whether it's morally right to deny a dog the Baronial chair because of some trifling concerns about proper representation and whether the Baron is actually aware of what's going on around him.

"I mean, look, he's NEUTERED!" said an unidentified Tierce supporter, "How many people running for Baron can say the same?"

New Proposed Device!

Tierce Discusses Barony at Cragmere Meeting

Tierce Discusses Barony at Cragmere Meeting

This is a photo of a recent Cragmere meeting where Tierce, along with certain other Baronial candidates, discussed the future of Wulfhurst and the concerns of the baronial populace.

Tierce's eloquent discourse and self-denial in not eating SCA paperwork brought tears to the eyes of some who witnessed this historic event.

"I can't believe he's so self-possessed!" claimed one observer. "It's like he was trained for this from puppyhood."

No one knows if Tierce's baronial excellence is innate or has been carefully fostered in him, but one thing is for sure: he is still very much in contention for the Baronial chair.

Tierce at Raven's War

2009-08-14T22:09:00.000-07:00

RAVENSLEY -- Tierce for Baron stickers sold well during Raven's War, bringing the amount of money destined for the Principality Travel Fund to $30. Once Tierce starts selling other stickers and memorabilia of his epic battle for the Baronial chair, we fully expect this amount to run rapidly to $100. Tierce also presented a sticker to Her Highness Chiara, which was graciously received.

Tierce spent a lot of time in his future yurt (which was not completed as planned due to unforeseen problems, hopefully solved this weekend), but also visited the people of Ravensley, listening to their concerns.

On Monday, Tierce was an instrumental part of the Barony Meeting, volunteering to act as a "cheerleader" for the Barony. Promoting a positive attitude towards the Barony has always been one of Tierce's goals.

Tierce makes a FAQ for the Upper Island Barony Web!

2009-07-21T08:22:00.000-07:00

Tierce, concerned about the welfare of his baronial members, has constructed a FAQ for the Insula Magna Blue Pages and compiled a list of FAQs for other things. You can see it here.

Tierce Instructs at Dance

2009-07-12T22:36:00.001-07:00

Last Thursday, people once again gathered at the Jolly Giant Daycare Gym in Hartwood to engage in the pastime of medieval dance. Tierce was instrumental in guiding the dancers through the forms of Rufty Tufty, Karabushka and other dance patterns.

"When he trips you, it means your form isn't as good as it could be," said one dancer, nursing a sprained ankle. "I'm glad Tierce is teaching me the right way to dance - in about 6 weeks, I'll be able to practice the dances again. It'll be a good opportunity to observe and learn."

Tierce instructs in dance at 7 PM every other Thursday. For more information, check the Wildwood website calendar events.

Tierce helps organize work party at Ravensley

2009-07-11T21:30:00.000-07:00

Today, Tierce organized a successful work party at Ravensley, despite suffering from debilitating allergies. During this time, he inspected the site, mapped out the camping areas, liaised with the Ravensley site canine representative Fozzie (we did not get the proper spelling, so apologies if this is not correct), supervised the cooking and helped clear campsites.

"A true Baron helps out" seemed to be Tierce's motto as he wrestled with large sticks and transported them to other parts of the campsite. While having them dropped and left in the middle of the road did not seem to be at first the most efficient way of clearing out debris, all were confident that Tierce had a purpose in placing them there.

Tierce was also instrumental in ensuring proper road safety, even to the point of stepping right in front of a van that was transporting logs to one end of the camp. This caused the driver to slow down from his reckless 5 km/hr speed to a dead stop. While this seemed somewhat detrimental to Tierce's physical integrity, those of us working at the site were impressed with his dedication to proper driving speeds within the site area.

Truly, Tierce is a baronial candidate to be proud of!

This is my new blog.

2009-07-11T21:20:00.001-07:00

I decided I didn't want to pay for bravewolf.ca anymore so Tierce has his very own blog here! Look for more Shiba goodness heading your way!
