I'm afraid the SCA lost all of my interest when the 31st person(not an exaggeration-after the first few I started keeping a count.) who was an SCA member walked up to me on the street (not at an event, mind you, just on the street!) and told me that my great kilt wasn't "period." I realize that those 31+ people do not comprise the entire SCA, but that was enough of them to make me shoot the whole idea of getting involved in any way out of a cannon.
