Year 0
The Team File, with a private login link, is crucial to your team in running the hotel. In this Team File you will find four tabs:
- tab Year 0 where you start this is where you do all the preparation, introduce your hotel, strategy etc.
- tab Year 1-2-3-4 where you take your decisions each year and give explanations each year, after your preparation year 0
- tab dashboard where you can find an overview of the most important financial results
- tab results where you find an operating review and other details on results and costs after each year
After a year has passed, the new dashboard and the results will be visible after releasing by your coach.
There is a Demo Team File you can check, with a filled out Team File at the end of an example Game.
Each competition is set-up is a specific way: so check your competition's assignment and timeline for details.

First things to do: your Preparations
Taking over the hotel means that you will have to make a lot of decisions within a short time period. You wished you had the luxury to think things over for weeks, well, sorry you don't have that time. The hotel is opened for business from the moment you take over. So you need to decide on a lot of things before you can run your hotel.
