ICC2006, the International Corewar Convention
But, another year has passed, the hill has aged, and so have the coders. I actually missed the last convention, and now I'm trying to make it up to you all with a new convention.
Because I live in Holland, and most redcoders come from either Germany or England it seems like a good place to hold the convention.
Ideas
Now for the basic ideas (so far, more are very welcome!)
- Professional look and feel
- One place for everybody to sleep
- A good dinner (prepared by me)
- A good netwerk and computers for everybody
- Beamer for presentations and show-battles
Planning
To give you a idea on what to expect, a preliminairy planning:
- Corewar tournament (always nice to play)
- Brainstorming about:
- Newbies
- Corewar portal website
- Warriors/Strategies
- Presentaions and Workshops
(want to give one? notify me!) - Some culture, a tour to Rotterdam/Amsterdam/Delft
- Having a drink, fun, games, socializing!
- Maybe do something very dutch like:
- A bike-tour?
- Visit a windmill?
- Go to a dyke or the delta works?
Location:
After some searching and brainstorming I came up with the ideal place for the ICC2006.
In the centre of Holland is a city called Delft, very old and nice, and good accessible (by train). Its between the major cities Amsterdam/Rotterdam and The Hague.
The location costs are just €9,55 per person/per night.
Included is are bathrooms and a fully equiped kitchen.
We want YOU!
Before I can really get to work on the program and location, I would like to know a couple of things from YOU!
- Are you intrested?
- When could you go? (I'm planning on summer 2006)
- Could you make it to Holland?
- What is about maximum time/money you want to spend here?
- What do you want to do on the ICC?
- Games?
- Sightseeing?
- Giving/participating in workshops?
- Socializing?
