Hi, welcome from Eugene!
I was one of the ones off to Seattle when you posted your intro and only just saw it.
Since you are into knights you will want to be sure to watch the threads about the Playmofriends Jousting League, the just finished Winterhaven Joust, and the World Map thread. Martin and I will be hosting a joust story here in Eugene in July or so and you are most welcome to join us, for our main photo days and otherwise.
