These will be some of my official/unofficial policies. Keep in mind none of these apply to archery equipment. Raziel can run his show how he likes.
During official weapons check, you will never not find me on the field.
Don't bring your weapons after weapons check closes (10am). All you've got to do is get out of your drunken slumber for five minutes to drop your weapons off at the field. That, or make sure your newbs and recruits are up early enough to carry your weapons to the field for you. Make them work. Our lovely weapons checkers want to be able to go off and have their own fun, too, so be considerate of the time they volunteer, getting beaten with your sometimes failing foam sticks. If you want your weapons to be checked later on in the day, I'll do so for ten minutes at the very beginning of lunch. I will not check your weapons unless you bring me a back of someone who does not own and will not be using any of those weapons. On your honor. After that, Don't know what to tell ya, I'll be on lunch.
I'll be on the field early (~8am), and I have no issues at all checking your weapons early. If you want your stuff ready before the first battles of the day are called, feel free to drop your weapons off. Be mindful though, I am but one person. Bringing a back to test stuff on may expedite the process.
It is not the responsibility of myself or anyone else at weapons check to mark your weapons for classification. We MAY have some green tape lying around somewhere, but dude, c'mon. You spend weeks preparing for Chaos Wars and you forget four inches of green tape? You disgust me. No weapons not labeled for stabbing will be checked for stabbing, but that's nothing new. I just don't want you hassling anyone on weapons check for green tape. They are busy enough as it is, and can't be wasting time catering to petty, YOU PROBLEM, issues.
If you're not a volunteer for weapons check, get out of the way of weapons checking activities. Pacing around, breathing down our necks for your weapons to get checked doesn't help your cause. Give us our space, we need it. We need it to swing safely and properly, we need it to organize weapons, etc. I'm thinking of bribing people signed up for City Guard to be bouncers
That's all I have for now. More announcements to come. If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to voice them here or in a message.
