I should be ashamed...

stitchwhich... but I'm not. I like the term 'Troll' for whoever acts as the registrar/gatekeeper/event attendance processor for an SCA event. It is perhaps the only SCA-jargon word that I really don't want to give up with the possible exception of "Autocrat". Yeah, "Event Steward" works too but there is no good reason to replace one with the other - neither are medieval designations and both could have easily developed into dialectical usage within any English-speaking land. So I'm not convinced that there is a superiority in using "Event Steward" over "Autocrat" except that one is officious and the other mildly humorous.
"Troll", now, well... I know. But I'm too fond of the word and the warm memories it evokes to want to give it up. I suspect it will be one of the things that marks me as an SCA-dinosaur.
