Your tasks during the game
There is a lot of information on this platform: don't get "killed by information": so what to do first? Read all of the tasks underneath and following the steps is handy. You can click on any blue link for more information on any page. Don't start immediately doing so, you might get lost ;-).
First get grip on the simulation± look around and plan ahead! Good luck!
Participating in the game means doing the next tasks:
A. During January 2013 (before 4th February; the game week) the next tasks must have been finished
You will receive information from your coaches on:
> your username and password for the platform to edit your teampage
> your teammembers
> secret link to your secure section where you input your decisions and can see your results
With this information you can work on your first four tasks.
- Task 1: Meet with your teammembers
Make a planning on meetings with your team in the weeks before the game is played, to do preparations and make plans for who is going to do what during week 6. In this gameweek (week 6) all teammembers must be available all of the time.
- Task 2: Study E-manual
Go to the top right hand side of this page screen at "My Preferences" and choose E-mail options. Only change the e-mail address in the e-mail address of one of your team members. Do not change the password or anything else.
Study the E-manual: here you will find what you need to read before taking any action. Look around a bit in the platform, so that you get a grip on what to find here and how it works. All teammembers can login using the same username± multiple users at the same time with the same login name is no problem. For just reading the content of this platform you don't need to login at all, by the way (only if you want to edit).
- Task 3: First actions
After reading, discuss your strategic plans with regard to the hotel and come to a conclusion. First have a look look at the example page: page 02DE User example team. Then start filling out on your own team page the first section which is called
Your Hotel basics: preparations.
This means a new name for your hotel, a new logo plus picture, a new slogan, a new management picture. Be sure only to work on your OWN team page!
Think of a new strategy on how to manage the hotel: as in reality, you can change some things during the game, but not into a complete different strategy. There is an extended Help, and there is also some Help:Video learning available (not totally ready yet).
Check the page Explaining secure section with the secret link for access that you've received. This is the section were your company-decisions and -results will be organized. Please fill out your hotel name here and fill out some decisions to get a feeling for things. You can change your decisions until the deadline of each year.
- Task 4: Prepare Trade Fair
In the game-week, your hotel will be presenting itself on a Trade Fair. So, before his week think this over and prepare this Trade Fair: check this page for more information. This is an important meeting, which influences your success in the game.
This offers you the opportunity to present your (new ideas on the) hotel. Be creative, and have a look on the pictures of Trade Fairs of other competitions. All team-members must participate on the Trade Fair.
To make your appearance on the Trade fair as useful as possible, your preparations on your team page (task 3) must be ready (new, logo, slogan, introduction of new management.
B. Tasks during the game week 04 February - 08 February
All the sessions during the game-week are very useful and compulsory (and often fun, of course).
