The Eastern Letters of Intent
How to Use This Table
This table is for tracking submissions through the registration process. Each column represents one of the four places a submission will appear throughout the process: the internal Letter of Intent, the kingdom-level Letter of Decision, the external Letter of Intent, and the Society-level Letter of Acceptances and Returns. Each row contains links to the specific letters associated with the internal LoI linked in the first column of that row.
If you know which iLoI a submission appeared on, find that date in the first column; the second column (LoD) will tell you the decision that was made at Kingdom, and give any relevant notes; the third column (xLoI) will show you how that item appeared on the Society-level letter, and the fourth column (LoAR) will tell you whether that item was ultimately registered or returned for further work.
If you don’t know any of the relevant dates for the submission you’re looking for, you can search in OSCAR for it. Searching the Society-level letters does not require an OSCAR log-in; enter the submitter’s name in the SEARCH box in the right-hand bar, and if that submitter’s item(s) made it to Society-level, you’ll see a date (e.g., “East – 2020-11-30”). Find that date in the third column of the table below.
If that search returns no items, you may need to search in the East’s kingdom section of OSCAR, which does require an OSCAR log-in. Log in, go to the KINGDOM link, and use the search bar there; this will also give you a date, which you’ll use in the first column of the table below.
If you cannot find the information you need, please contact Blue Tyger Herald or one of their deputies.
Abbreviations
- iLoI: Internal Letter of Intent; also found as “KLoI” in OSCAR. This is the first place a submission will appear, and is a request for first-pass commentary and review.
- LoD: Letter of Decision (sometimes referred to as LoR, or Letter of Response, in older usage). This contains kingdom-level decisions on submissions, as well as additional notes.
- xLoI: External Letter of Intent; also found as merely “LoI” in OSCAR. This is a request for extended commentary and review; decisions on these items will be made by the Sovereigns of Arms.
- LoAR: Letter of Acceptances and Returns. This is the final decision on each item, and contains items from every kingdom.
