I took over the Herald's Office of the Shire of An Dun Theine in November 2001.

At the beginning of the year 2002, after doing some research, I discovered that only about 30% of our populace actually had registered devices (a few more had registered names, but no devices). Well, even some of our most distinguished members and also some of our officers fell into this category, and this was not good!

At the end of 2002, things had changed a bit. This Shire had 36 (15 name, 15 device, 6 badge) submissions in 2002, which propelled the percentage beyond the 50-mark. It was only the influx of so many newcomers at the end of the year, which prevented this number to be even higher.

In 2003 we had not as many submissions: 12 names, 14 devices and 1 badge.

In 2004, I expected this number to go down even further, because there was simply hardly any active member left in the Shire without a registered or submitted name and device. What I did not expect was the great number of newcomers - but for most of those, my successor will be responsible.

I stepped down from the Office on 06 July 2004, after having prepared and processed 89 submissions in two and a half years - 38 Names, 40 Devices and 11 Badges. That makes almost 3 submissions per month, so this office kept me real busy.
But at least I can leave with the knowledge that there is no active player in my former Shire left without a registered (or at least submitted) name and device. That was my goal and I reached it - now I can go to Drachenwald with the good feeling that I did my duty.

Here is the status quo as of 06 July 2004 :
