SCA politics

thnidu has graciously corrected my grammar: the phrase I want is "Per coitum ad coronam".  Not "Per copula ad corona" as I'd originally coined it.  I think my original version flows better and is more clearly playing off the "per ardua ad astra" motto, but it's important to communicate correctly.

The literal version Google (http://translate.google.com/?rlz=q=Per+coitum+ad+coronam&tab=wT#la|en|Per%20coitum%20ad%20coronam) provides is "During the act, to the crown". I'm left wondering if this refers to "putting it in DEEP during sex" or "fucking your way to the top". :)

(take with a decent helping of salt - this IS google translate at work)

The latter is what I had in mind. Some of the tin-hats I've met have been notably lacking in any positive qualities, and have given the appearance of having looked for a promising stick-jock to latch onto.
