Next honours petition: Independence Day

[Trotxâ]

From the College of Arms page on Obtaining Arms:

Through the College of Arms and the office of the Squirrel King of Arms, any citizen of Talossa may petition the Crown for arms. The Squirrel King of Arms will assign a Fellow of the College to each requester for arms. Once the request is finalized, that Fellow of the College will introduce the proposed design to the College of Arms. The Squirrel King of Arms will call for a vote of all Heralds and Pursuivants, who will approve with a majority or will disapprove. The Squirrel King of Arms will submit a list of honours to the King, and the King may choose to grant arms to those he favours. To avoid distracting His Majesty from the critical affairs of state, petitions for arms are limited to certain memorable dates. The King may choose to grant mundane honours at any time, but traditionally His Highness announces honours at meaningful and historic times of the year.

The next Mundane Petition for Honours is scheduled for Independence Day, 26 December. In order to allow for sufficient time to complete the emblazons and the petition for His Majesty, the deadline for completion of a blazon is Midnight TST on Monday, 17 December.

So if anyone else is thinking about submitting a request for arms, speak now or forever hold your peace. Or hold out until the Wargaming Day Honours petition, which will be presented on 21 February 2008.

Perhaps I need enlightening on procedures pertaining to the most recent Honours date but wasn't it scheduled for Independence Day?

Yes, it was/is.

It seems that Our Most Gracious King left his Royal Reading Glasses back in the 'loo , and had to go back for them.

Give us just a few moments, and all will be back to normal.
