All parties, Seneschals, Barons and Baronesses from both Cynnabar and Roaring wastes was able to come to an agreement that included Crown’s approval. The short of it is that of the ‘disputed’ zip codes, some will be Cynnabar’s, some will be Roaring Wastes, but the majority of the disputed zip codes will end up being “shared”. That is, SCA members that live in those zip codes can associate themselves with either Cynnabar OR Roaring Wastes and will include proper Baronial pollings. This 15+ year issue is now SETTLED with everyone walking away from the meeting smiling and hugs all around.
