Camp planner
Overview
Empire events are split into two areas, the out-of-character area which isn't used during the game where you can use any tent, and in-character area where the game takes place and where you can only use an appropriate in-character tent. The in-character area is further sub-divided into ten distinct camps, one for each nation. If you are bringing an in-character tent, then you must camp with the other members of your nation.
Each nation has one or more camp planners, members of crew whose job is to plan the layout of each camp. Anyone who is planning to camp in the in-character area must contact the camp planner to let them know how many tents they are bringing and how large they are. The camp planners use this information to create a camp plan for each nation, indicating where all their nation's tents will go.
The camp planners publish the camp plan a week before the event. You must camp in the spot indicate on the plan. The camp planner will be available on Thursday and Friday before the event starts to provide help and guidance to find your spot if you need it.
Camp Planning
- If you are camping in-character, you must let the camp planner for your nation know
- Camp planners can be contacted on facebook or by email
- The deadline for providing information is two weeks before the event begins
- You need to tell your camp planner the number and size of any tents you are bringing
- Camp planners aim to publish the camp plan for the event one week before it begins
- Only contact your own nation's camp planner about the camp plan for the event
If you are planning to pitch one or more tents in the in-character area at the event, you must let the camp planner for you nation know well beforehand. This may be as simple as filling in a row on a public spreadsheet, but it varies from nation to nation. You need to contact the camp planner, either on facebook or by email, and let them know the number and size of any tents you are bringing.
Our camp planners are all members of the relevant nation Facebook group. They will post there before each event, to remind people to let them know what tents they are bringing. You can also conact them via their official Profound Decisions email accounts. All contact details are below.
If you are bringing IC tents then you must let us know two weeks before the event to ensure that space is allocated for them. The camp planners for each nation will publish a camping map on the nation's Facebook group one week before the event and will send this by email to anyone who requests it.
All our camp planners work together, collaboratively, to produce a single camp plan for the event. Please only contact your own nation camp planner about the camp plan. If there any issues that you think could affect neighbouring camps, then discuss those with your camp planner. They will share any relevant issues with the camp planning team.
Camp Setup
- You must make sure you camp in the indicated area
- Your camp planner can show you the area that has been allocated for you to pitch your in-character tents when you arrive at the event
You must ensure that you keep your camp to the area designated by the camp planner. You can liaise with the camp planner once you arrive on site before you pitch any in-character tents to confirm where you should camp and how much room you have available.
Camp Takedown
- Camp planners will remind players pitching in the in-character area to clear their camp at the end of the weekend
- Your camp planner can provide advice on how to dipose of your rubbish and will have spare rubbish bags if you need them
You must make sure you clear all your rubbish at the end of the weekend and put it in one of the skips provided. Your camp planner will remind you to clear your camp before the end of the weekend. They can tell you where the skips are located and provide advice on the best way to dispose of your rubbish if you need any help. They also have spare refuse bags available if you need them to bag your rubbish.
