Rolls Manual: VI. Points Conversions Page 15 of 35

The Minister of Rolls will:

• Apply the points, and advancements as directed by the Imperial Crown.

• Double check that converted points do not violate the one-point-per-month rule (if so, notify

the member, the Imperial Crown, and note it in the records).

• Keep a copy of the information (request, back-up information, and Imperial Crown approval)

in the Rolls records for future reference.

2. Restrictions

• The member is still subject to the one-point-per-month rule, and any conversions shall not

overlap with points already awarded for a month.

• The converted points will not be recorded until the Imperial Crown has approved the

conversion.

C. Renaissance Military Society (RMS)

The Renaissance Military Society (RMS) tracks points exactly the same way as Adria. Because they are

completely analogous to Adria, the points are converted one for one.

D. Society for Creative Anachronisms (SCA)

The Society for Creative Anachronisms (SCA) does not track points the same way as Adria. For instance,

they do not usually keep track of tournament wins. Because of this, most of the milestones cannot be

documented, and only participation can be easily converted. What can be documented is eligible for

conversion. The system of conversion, and documentation sections below were originally an Imperial Writ

from TIMs Elisabeth Grey and Erick the Aweful, dated April 21, 2001.

1. System for the Conversion of SCA Participations

Pursuant to the above By-law [Article IX.C. Ranks] the Imperial Crown here by adopts the

following conversion system to accommodate members coming into the Empire from the SCA.

Knights, Masters Members of the Order of the Laurel, and Masters Members of the Order of the

Pelican, and Members of the Orders of the Chivalry, including both Knights and Masters of Arms.

May be elevated to Adrian Knighthood upon completion of their milestones (wins, DPs, WPs, and

DIs). Upon completion of the milestones, participations in their track (archery, arts, combat,

ministry) may be waived up to as many months as they have been subjects of the Laurel

Kingdoms.

SCA members below peerage level requesting credit for experience will have to be dealt with on a

case by case basis taking into consideration sub-peerage awards to determine if and the number of

participation points that should be granted.

2. Documentation and Determination

Request for the granting of credit for participation points will be made in writing to the Crown or

Chancellor of the Imperium and the Sovereign of Arms will check the SCA order of precedence.

The Imperium may impanel a special Court to deal with these matters if need be. The court may

conduct their business over e-mail or phone if they deem it expeditious. The member will submit

documents affidavits and affirmations from Officers and former Officers of the SCA to establish

their claim for any points to be credited. The panel or the Imperial Crown will determine what

participation credits are to be granted toward Knighthood in the Adrian Empire, and any

Knighthood that the member is eligible for. The Imperial Crown will approve the findings if the

Crown is in agreement, or reject the findings and send them back for more work (such as better

documentation clarification etc.) This determination will be made only on the merits of the

documents.
