And everyone who worked on the feast in any capacity deserves massive kudos. It worked really well. Of course, like any venture of this nature, there may have been things that could have been done better, but as someone who did his best to just stay out of the way, because I wasn't signed up to do anything for this (mostly because I've been so busy with other things, I guess -- I always felt like I was kind of an outsider for the plot), but got to enjoy the actual feast as a guest, I have to say it was really damn impressive. The food was fantastic (what I was able to eat -- the later dishes I didn't try because I was stuffed from earlier dishes); the presentation was great; the entertainment was really fun ...
The camp was a bit disconcerting in size, but still, it worked, and I think we managed to avoid killing anyone, or getting in each others' faces, making things uncomfortable. I wouldn't want to do that size camp for every event, but it did work (which I think was largely due to the specific combination of people as much as anything).
Anyway, good job, to everyone. It was really good, and Tangwystyl had a great time, which you could see if you just looked at her face. She was a bit embarassed to be the center of attention but really enjoyed it.
