On a tangent-but-related topic, what about SCAdian 'originals'?  I enjoy 
choreography, but am often uncertain when introducing a dance of my own 
creation will be welcomed and when it will be frowned upon.

Are such things only welcome post-midnight, along with the OOPs/GOOPs?
[While I certainly don't mind putting original choreographies in a 'proper 
time and place', I would like to point out that the post-midnight crowd 
who've been waiting all evening for a chance to dance Korabushka are 
generally *not* the ideal target audience who might be interested in the 
latest thing I've been working on...]
