Title should read: XII. Succession of the Baronial Coronet (too many characters, apparently)
One big question (asked on the list) is whether martial = heavy weapons.
Also on D.4.: How should this best be worded? If it is only a year, then it is possible that the person could then fight again, two coronet tournaments later, if the second one is actually more than a year from the event in question (e.g. Oct 1 tournament, then an Oct. 11th tournament).
Thoughts?

The Proposed "banned from competing for the Coronet for the next two Coronet Tourneys." is appropriate.

I agree with Friar Jak. 2 Tourney's is the appropriate verbage.
Martial is simply used for Fighting. We've always assumed it meant Heavy Fighting, but is there any reason that the Crown Tourney couldn't be a Light Weapons Tourney? If we wish to keep it as Heavy only then the change should be made, but if we wanted to include light, say alternating each Martial Tourney we should leave the original and put down rules regarding the switching.
