Hi all,
I'm wearing my Armor Marshal hat for this post. After some issues with this came up at the last event, I need to remind players that armor, especially home-made armor, needs to be of a design that would not pose a safety hazard or danger to others if you were to accidentally fall on them or they were to fall on you.
Sharp edges and corners may be a reason that your armor is not approved to wear for the event (which would not be fun for you). Sharp edges can also damage weapon physreps, rendering them unsafe with a single swing against the sharp edge.
If you have armor with sharp edges (especially metal edges), the edge must be covered with sufficient thick dull material (such as leather) so as to not pose a danger to other players or equipment. The other Marshals and myself will be strictly enforcing this in the future.
If you have questions about this, please ask.
