>> Hej HL-RoboCuppers,
>>
>> this is an important e-mail with information about the convention hall,
>> playing fields and equipment and the schedule for the first set-up days.
>> Please read the email carefully and completely!
>>
>> = Convention hall, playing fields and equipment =
>> Reinhard, Soroush, Hideaki and I as OC, TC and LOC visited the convention
>> hall today and inspected the fields and team area. Overall, I think it
>> looks great and its all there for us to have a fun and fruitful event. We
>> encountered a few minor things we would like to make you aware of:
>> - As you can see in the image, the fields are composed of multiple
>> pieces. Between a few of them, there are small gaps. Since this is most
>> challenging for the KidSize robots, we will try to have Teen and Adult size
>> playing on the fields with the larger gaps. There is nothing we can really
>> do about the gaps in the fields, so please try to adjust to them as good as
>> possible.
>> Image: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B-5lmPb0LW1fVVBaOHEyeWcxYTg
>> - The painting of the white lines comes off quite easily. Therefore,
>> please avoid stepping or sitting on the lines as humans when practicing
>> with the robots on the fields. We hope we can get some repainting if
>> possible, but let's all work together to keep the field lines "fresh" as
>> long as possible
>> - As you see on the image, between field A / B and C / D there is no
>> boarder or gap or anything separating the fields except of the small space
>> on the floor. This means your robots will likely see the goal posts of the
>> other field in one of the directions as well. The environment around the
>> fields is not defined in the rule book on purpose, so we expect the teams
>> to be able to adapt.

>> = Getting to the convention hall, opening hours, free train tickets =
>> The hall and registration opens tomorrow at 8:00 AM. Please be aware that
>> the train ride from Nagoya station takes about half an hour by Aonami Line
>> (get of at Kinjofuto Station). You need to buy train tickets yourself to
>> get to the convention tomorrow. However, you will then receive train
>> tickets for your way back tomorrow and for 26th - 30th of July round trip.
>>
>> = Practice Games and visit by media representatives =
>> On Wednesday, some media and press representatives will be shown around
>> in the convention hall. At 11:15 they are scheduled to look at the humanoid
>> league. We would like to show some demonstration games during that time so
>> pictures can be taken for press releases. It would be great if teams could
>> volunteer for that. We will discuss this further tomorrow during the team
>> leader meeting, but please consider already if you can imagine
>> participating. It doesn't have to work all perfect by then, but it would be
>> great to show the variety of robots we are having. To practice for the
>> media visit, but first and foremost to test out the new GameController, we
>> will have some practice games tomorrow evening. As you all know, we had to
>> add quite a bit of functionality to the GameController compared to last
>> year and this has not yet been fully tested during live games. In order to
>> ensure everything works without bugs for the first regular games, we would
>> like to extensively test the GameController during those practice games for
>> all leagues. Again, we would highly appreciate if teams would volunteer for
>> that.
>>
>> = Robot Inspection =
>> This year, we will have a list of available time slots for you to sign up
>> for the robot inspection. We will put the list up tomorrow. Please be aware
>> that the first available time slots are tomorrow in the afternoon already.
>> Please sign up for an available time slot as soon as possible and be sure
>> to be at the inspection on time. It is your responsibility to get your
>> robots inspected! With the new time slot system, we hope to reduce the
>> waiting time for all teams and to distribute the available time better for
>> the organizers.
>>
>> = Technical Challenges =
>> In order to prepare the schedule for the next days, we would like you to
>> announce your participation in the technical challenges during the setup
>> days already. More information will follow in the team leader meeting
>> tomorrow, but please consider with your team already if you want to
>> participate.
>>
>> = Schedule for Tuesday, 26th of July =
>> 16:00 Team leader meeting - we meet at field A and go to the meeting room
>> together
>> 17:00 - 19:00 Robot Inspection (first available time slots)
>> 19:00 Practice games to test the GameController (regular games)
>> 20:00 Practice games to test the GameController (drop-in)
>>
>> = Schedule for Wednesday, 27th of July =
>> 9:00 - 12:00 Robot Inspection
>> 11:15 Visit by media and press representatives
>> 13:00 - 15:00 Referee Training
>> 15:00 - 19:30 Robot Inspection
>> 18:00 - 19:00 Opening Ceremony
>> 19:30 Team leader and referee meeting
>>
>> We expect all team leaders to be present at the team leader meeting at
>> 16:00 tomorrow. If no member of your team can be present by then, please
>> drop me an email to let me know.
>>
>> So, that's it - see you all tomorrow! If you have any questions or
>> concerns, you should always find a member of the OC or TC at the table next
>> to field D (marked with "League Chair Desk" in the map that was sent around
>> earlier).
>>
>> Cheers,
>> Maike (for the HL TC and OC)
