Welcome!

So you are interested in participating to Oldvillage 2123? Great! Every year we welcome handpicked guests to our self made friendship game. It is non commercial, which means no one of us gets a cap for what we do, but it also means we are welcoming only people we think fit to us as people offgame and into the game.

Overall Information:
When?
- We are at the place at monday, 15th of may. If you wish to come early for building or getting to know us better, you are welcome to join us during the preparations. The game starts at 18th of may, 00.00 o'clock, which means you will not miss out too much if you come during that day. LARP ends on saturday, 20th of may, at the evening. Departure is at sunday, 21st of may, before the owners come and do the afterchecks.

Where?
- 53°44'43.0"N 14°13'43.3"E there. If you need the adress, it's Nordstraße 75, 17375 Altwarp, Germany, Blackfield Airsoft Area

Costs?
- Since we need to pay to rent the place we play on, we have to ask you for money. We need to get 40 Euro per person, otherwise we can't rent the place.

Who?

- First off: Wataha of course. That means mainly the german part, as it is hard for the polish part to come and join us.
- Second: Guests and other factions are welcome generally. Single people or small groups up to 5 people can just ask for participation, a faction of more than 5 people has a special process of joining the event.
- The upper limit would be 80 people for now. Otherwise the place gets too crowded and quests can't be done in secrecy anymore.
- People need to be above 18 years old, or have to have someone who is responsible for them. Don't be fooled, we had children on Oldvillage before, and it was a lot of fun. But that's a rare case. Children up until 13 years pay no entrance fee, but also have no access to the wasteland.
- Animals are allowed. We have special rules so that you don't have to worry about them (for example the "never feed others animals" rule). Animals should be ok with loud scary noises and stranger people running around yelling.

What do I need?

1. Postapocalyptic/ worn down clothing (in some cases, we stray from that rule, if there is a good reason for it)
2. Camping equipment. A tent is not nescessary, if you are comfortable to sleep in a loud environment on a dirty bed with less privatesphere. But cooking stuff and so on you will need.
3. Food, drinks, WATER! There is no water source there, so be prepared for bringing water! The next shopping mall is 20 minutes away by car, so if you come by train, find someone who will go shopping and tell them what you need (cash could be nescessary in this case).
4. Airsoft-Guns, Nerf-Guns and melee LARP weaponry is optional. If you can't bring it, or don't own it, maybe there is a chance to rent something for some time, but don't count on it.
5. Playing equipment: Airsoft-prove goggles (plastic, no grids), signal vest, mouth protection optional, but recommended. We will check for those when you will go through accreditation.

Something else to know?
- This is in fact still a private event. We have organizers, but they play along as they organize. Stuff could take longer as in a professional event. That's why we would be happy if you would come up with own ideas on how to enrich the festival. Happenings, quests etc. Whatever comes to mind, let one of the Orgs know and we see what can be made.
- If you need something, or need someone to do something for you, let the person know upfront. ASAP. Everyone on this festival has his/her own rhythm, up and downtimes. Things are easier to manage the sooner you talk about them.
- We are throwing people out that don't stick to the rules, mainly the offgame rules, like wearing protection in the wasteland, harrassment of other players, feeding animals that are not their own, and so on. Study the rules, and you are on the save site.
- The Orgs are god. Don't try to discuss with them about something they mark as: closed. They always have the last word.
