Welcome to the Emerald Forest Hotel!
This is the homepage of the Game called 05DE, February 2014. From this central point you can navigate to the pages with information you need. All blue links are clickable and will bring you to another page in the platform. For instance clicking on Photos and videos will jump to this page in the platform with photos and videos of the hotel. The navigation left-hand site will always stay active: and you can use back in your browser. But there is by now3,964 pages in this platform, so if you're new first follow the steps later on on this page to prevent you from gettinglost. All links which look like this: insights for 2013 will open a new tab in your browser and open the website of the link. So they go outside this platform. Maybe check the video help first to get an impressions, especially the page the Guided tour through the platform.
Always check the news: latest news always on top

Your tasks during the entire game
There is a lot of information on this platform: don't get "killed by information": so do you do first? Do the tasks underneath on this page step by step. You can click on any blue link for more information on any page. Don't start doing so immediately, you might get lost ;-). Good luck!
Participating in the game means doing the next tasks:
- tasks to be done before the game week starts (underneath)
- tasks to be done during the game week to be found at 04LV Tasks and decisions, day by day.
Your tasks before the game week starts, so before 30th September
You will receive information from your coaches on:
> your teamnumber, the city your team is in and your teammembers
> your team's username and password for the platform to edit your teampage
> secret link to your private section where you input your decisions and can see your results.
With this information you can start meeting with your team, dividing the tasks, checking out the platform etc. Make sure you have your team well organised and the tasks well divided.
During September 2013 (before the the game week, week 40) the next tasks must have been finished
- Task 1: Meet with your teammembers
Plan meetings with your team in the weeks before the game week, to make preparations and plans for who is going to do what before this game week and during week 40. In this game week (week 40) all team members must be available all of the time. It is going to be busy but a very interesting week! Beware that the game week is from Monday the 30th September until the end of the day on Friday the 4th. of October.
- Task 2: Study E-manual
Go to the top right-hand side of this page screen at "My Preferences" scroll a bit down until you see E-mail, E-mail options. Change this e-mail address in a real e-mail address of one of your teammembers use the save button at the bottom. This e-mail might comes handy in some cases. Do not change the password or anything else in this section
- Help on this: Help:Guided tour through the platform | Help:Help on first login | Help:How to find information and help
Study the E-manual: here you will find what you need to read before taking any action. Look around a bit in this platform, so that you get a grip on what to find here and how it works. After this, you can use the Sandbox to practice. All teammembers can login using the same username: multiple users at the same time with the same login name is no problem. To just read the content of this platform you don't need to login at all, by the way (only if you want to edit). There is much information on how to in Help:contentson content in special pages in Category:Hotel info.
You can search with the buttons top-righthand corner: with GO for a special page on the searched for item, or with button Search which will show all pages where this search item is mentioned. No answer found? Ask your coach or use the Shoutbox which is monitored by the coaches.

Then start filling out your own teampage: this has to be ready entirely on Monday 16.00. Have a look at the secure section using your private link and fill out your chosen hotelname there.
