I had asked if we could use the Norse for the siege, since the lack of Archers.
Also, I think the Siege was bonus thing, or like a fun round.
Anyway, I had fun, even though my flank got annihilated each time. Haha.

Thanks to Hrotha for organizing the event, I think we never had so little delay before starting the proper fighting before! 
Even though the Goídil were beaten one can not blame them of giving up and it was certainly not a lack of spirit or tactics that left them with the lower hand. It was nice to see some proper maneuvering too and I got some pretty nice footage of it that I will look into over the next few days to hopefully upload a proper recording of the fighting so congratulations to both leaders too!
The technical issues that were mentioned are a more grim matter and I fear they kept many people from joining the game who meant to, we best look into any possible ways to relieve or solve things like this, but I almost fear it is beyond our reach and a matter of the master server itself. Still thanks to everyone for joining in, and hopefully those who could not take part will get another chance in the future.

It was a great event!
I'm not used to playing like that...you know, where we actually work together and use tactics.

Thanks everyone for playing! Pity that we had some technical problems again, and I'm genuinely sorry for those of you who couldn't join us tonight.
I'd like to thank everyone who made this possible: the rest of the official organizing team, Þorkell and Leodfrið; Möck, who ended up being an organizer in everything but name even though this started as an attempt to take the process off his shoulders; the map designers, Ealdgyþ and Helies; the special host leaders, Ualraig (thanks for the TS, too!), Saxnot and Hergeirr, and his backup, Gooner, because on top of leading they also had to cooperate a fair bit with the organization, especially on the day of the event; Eiríkr, who was also a backup leader and did a lot to help things run smoothly, and then was unable to play because of those authentication key problems; all the host leaders; and all the players.
I hope you all had fun!

Well, the siege was just a dessert, not part of the official event. ^_^rapier17 said:

really cool event, even if our side lost, we manage to deploy some damn good military tactics, like shieldwall in the first line defended by spearmens in the second, or the stand in the village were i slained some warriors trought the fence with a spear too, public hosts did his best, thanks at the commander and as always at everyone involved in the event organization

We died for the greater good that round. Saw you chaps make a beeline for us and thought bugger it, lets die with honour. Took a birin to the back and lost my head to a womans hand. Sad times. But the sight of seeing the Fyrd rally together in their blood fury and make short work of you chaps was a joy to behold.
Bloody love Vikingr.
