'''The MCH2022 afterparty is for everyone who made MCH2022 possible: all orga, angels, friends, secret angels, everyone who helped or want to help in the future and so on.
'''

== Location ==
The afterparty will take place in Elst, because it is close to the German border. It is in the GKS ICT Solutions building, at Industrieweg Oost 7b in Elst. Parking avaidable around the building. A train station is at 15 minutes walking distance.

== Travel ==

=== Car ===
Parking spots are available around the venue. There's basically infinite parking space, so if you can walk an infinite distance it will be fine.

=== Train / Public transport ===
The venue is located almost next to a [https://www.ns.nl/stationsinformatie/est/elst railway station in Elst]. Trains run up until [https://www.ns.nl/en/journeyplanner/#/?vertrek=Elst&vertrektype=treinstation&aankomst=Utrecht%20Centraal&aankomsttype=treinstation&type=vertrek&tijd=2022-11-19T23:30&firstMileModality=PUBLIC_TRANSPORT&lastMileModality=PUBLIC_TRANSPORT&entireTripModality=OWN_CAR&disabledTransportModalities=&context=arnu%7CfromStation%3D8400207%7CtoStation%3D8400621%7CplannedFromTime%3D2022-11-20T01:56:00%2B01:00%7CplannedArrivalTime%3D2022-11-20T02:42:00%2B01:00%7CexcludeHighSpeedTrains%3Dfalse%7CsearchForAccessibleTrip%3Dfalse%7CaddChangeTime%3D0&ritnummers=23406 01:56]. Since Elst is very close to Arhnem, there is always an option for a carpool to the city. They start running _really_ early in the morning as well... so [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hHkKJfcBXcw trains are your friends]. 
Note that due to scheduled maintenance the train schedule might be adjusted that weekend for those to/from Utrecht.

== COVID ==
Please do a rapid antigen test (dutch: Self test) before attending. Winter is coming, and we have seen how that worked the last few years. We will monitor the situation to see if more is needed closer to November 19th.

== Drinks? ==
I still have some beer ([https://www.bocq.be/en/#biere-blanche-de-namur Blanche de Namur]) and 0.0 Beer ([https://www.budels.nl/non-alcoholic-beers Budels Hopped 0.0 (bottom of page)]). I could be convinced to bring some. [[User:Denz|denz]] ([[User talk:Denz|talk]]) 17:00, 27 September 2022 (CEST)

Dany: /* Terrain */

== Posted reviews, media, blogs/vlogs, photo collections, etc ==

Please post these on the [[memories]] page.

== How to post feedback ==

First of all, let's talk about negativity bias a bit. Please make sure to post a fair balance between positive and negative feedback. Feedback about what went wrong is important, but feedback about what went right is even more important. Do share your negativity, but please be kind and remember we're a bunch of volunteers. To thrive and continue to organize these events, we need a certain amount of positivity, preferably a list of the very specific things you loved and would like to experience again!

<nowiki>Please add your feedback below. Use * to add a bullet point, *: to add an indented bullet point (adding to or replying to comment above), and -- ~~~ to sign your name. </nowiki>

Example:

<pre><nowiki>* Sample text :) -- ~~~</nowiki></pre>

turns into

* Sample text :) -- [[User:Example user|Example user]] ([[User talk:Example user|talk]])

<nowiki>Add a subject if it isn't there yet using == subject==</nowiki>

'''Use the [edit] links next to the individual headings to reduce the likelihood of wiki edit conflicts.'''

== Topics ==

=== General / overall ===

* So happy about the progressive pride and Antifa flag on the tower
* Awesome event again, thanks to everyone who did their part to making it such -- [[User:SK|SK]] ([[User talk:SK|talk]])
* It was fantastic and I am already stoked for the next one! -- [[User:Mosquito|Mosquito]] ([[User talk:Mosquito|talk]])
* I had a great camp overall, it was way more comfortable than I'd expected and things seemed to run smoothly. Being greeted by progressive pride flag on the Orga tent and tower instantly made me feel at ease. -- [[User:Dany|Dany]] ([[User talk:Dany|talk]])

=== Arrival / departure / parking / train shuttle / luggage shuttle ===

* I was surprised twice that empty places in the field were apparently claimed. It was not clear to me that people had staked out places already on the wiki. This would seem to me one of The Most Important Things To Tell People: "whatever is on the wiki wins". Or perhaps abolish that, also fine by me, but in any case be very clear about it. I could also do with an AR app or so that shows me what people claimed :-) -- [[User:Ahu|Ahu]] ([[User talk:Ahu|talk]])

* Last day of the event felt kinda "lost" as people were beginning to tear things down from early on in the day well before the closing event. Was bit of a weird mood/feeling. -- [[User:Rot13|Rot13]] ([[User talk:Rot13|talk]])

=== Badge ===

* Very well-made and polished badge, really surprised me with the effort put into it and its versatility! [[User:Vurpo|Vurpo]] ([[User talk:Vurpo|talk]]) 21:07, 30 July 2022 (CEST)
* The badge is really nice, but the price of MCH admission is already hindering people we'd like to reach. Perhaps do consider if we really need it. -- [[User:Ahu|Ahu]] ([[User talk:Ahu|talk]])
* Awesome badge, I had a lot of fun tinkering with it during camp and always received helpful advice in the IRC channel. Please keep this project going! [[User:Alxndr|Alxndr]] ([[User talk:Alxndr|talk]])
* The badge is amazing! However, I feel bad that my badges from previous events barely got used and this one is likely to suffer the same fate. For environmental/cost reasons, I kinda wish I could have opted out. Alternately, if there were a way to hand my badge in after the event and know it would be used for educational purposes later on, I would have given it up a heartbeat. -- [[User:HerraBRE|HerraBRE]]

=== Bars and food court ===

* The capacity of the food-stands was quite low, which resulted in long waiting times. Not good with hungry kids. [[User:Fhp|Fhp]] ([[User talk:Fhp|talk]])
* Agree with above: low capacity for the commercial food stands. They also didn't seem to grasp the concept of 'lunch'. I expected them to be up and running around 13.00, but most of them weren't, resulting in even longer lines at the places that were open earlier. -- [[User:Dany|Dany]] ([[User talk:Dany|talk]])
* The food stands I've visited (Wok, Fries) had poor in-person advertising of everything that they were actually selling and how much it cost. -- [[User:Rot13|Rot13]] ([[User talk:Rot13|talk]])
* The Johny Cash Burger was great but mostly I fed on waffles by the awesome C3WOC <3. And of course one can rely on the Italian Hackers' Embassy for excellent pasta. By the way... is there a Spanish or French Embassy with similar services? Would put that on my checklist for the next camp. ;-) Oh and Angel Food was also great and healthy. Didn't miss meat there, eating more veg is better for the environment anyways. Thanks for the opportunity! Conclusion: Wide range, many choices, very good! -- [[User:Mosquito|Mosquito]] ([[User talk:Mosquito|talk]])
* Frietsaus is not Mayo. [[User:MrLinux|MrLinux]]

=== Buildup and teardown ===

* As one of the persons who collected what felt like a kilometre of Flatterband at teardown, and removed a pile of pegs it was attached to, I would like to thank those buildup angels who didn't sink the pegs below ground level. You made my job a lot easier! :) [[User:Alxndr|Alxndr]] ([[User talk:Alxndr|talk]])

=== COVID19 precautions ===

* Thanks for caring about ventilation. [https://grafana.mch2022.org/d/q9gZutJ7z/mch2022?orgId=1&viewPanel=30&from=1658492800367&to=1658853839068 CO2 meters] and open sides weren't in place during the opening talk, but this was fixed quickly after and I heard the security team kept an eye on the graphs. --[[User:Juerd|Juerd]] ([[User talk:Juerd|talk]]) 20:43, 30 July 2022 (CEST)
* I liked the availability of masks and self tests for those who forgot to bring their own. I've heard about a few dozen people who got infected, but there were probably more. Thanks to the rapid tests and the heroes who chose to isolate, we may have averted a disastrous superspreading event. --[[User:Juerd|Juerd]] ([[User talk:Juerd|talk]]) 22:02, 30 July 2022 (CEST)
** Very much appreciated the easy availability of masks and rapid tests. -- [[User:Rot13|Rot13]] ([[User talk:Rot13|talk]])
* It would have been good to switch from recommended to required mask wearing, at least indoors, once it became clear that "personal responsibility" wasn't working out (even in this community, what a disappointment). [[User:Alxndr|Alxndr]] ([[User talk:Alxndr|talk]])
** Agreeing on all points. Was also a bit disappointed. -- [[User:Rot13|Rot13]] ([[User talk:Rot13|talk]])
* It was good to request/require mask wearing in the food queue in Heaven. It would have been even better to do it from the very beginning. [[User:Moem|Moem]] ([[User talk:Moem|talk]]) 09:20, 31 July 2022 (CEST)

=== Cohesion ===

* Put your feedback here :)

=== Content / talks / heralds / speakerdesk / AV / recordings ===

* In the end it worked pretty well, but perhaps do ponder having some "known good" presenter laptops/devices available. This has worked very well for other conferences. I used a 200 euro Chromebook with a throwaway google account. -- [[User:Ahu|Ahu]] ([[User talk:Ahu|talk]])
* This is a matter of taste - if you light up the speakers real well, the audience can enjoy a well lighted speaker. But the speaker then often can't see the audience. And during my talks, I love to actually see the audience. This was better in 2017 (at least in Abacus and Battery). -- [[User:Ahu|Ahu]] ([[User talk:Ahu|talk]])
* The speaker desk and the room to work is absolutely ACE. -- [[User:Ahu|Ahu]] ([[User talk:Ahu|talk]])
* Very friendly and helpful people at the speakerdesk and also Heralds and other Angels. Dry running my laptop with the monitor at the Speaker Desk before the talk made me much calmer once I knew that worked. Thank you! -- [[User:Mosquito|Mosquito]] ([[User talk:Mosquito|talk]])

=== Decoration / design ===

* Well done all around -- [[User:SK|SK]] ([[User talk:SK|talk]]) 01:07, 31 July 2022 (CEST)
* The design was so colorful and well thought out, it gave team Deco a lot to work with. Great job! [[User:Moem|Moem]] ([[User talk:Moem|talk]]) 09:22, 31 July 2022 (CEST)
* The deco was really cool, I especially liked the UV-reactive strings that gave the illusion of lasers and the super cute felt plants in the Silent Lounge. -- [[User:Dany|Dany]] ([[User talk:Dany|talk]])

=== Family / kids ===

* Put your feedback here :)

=== Finance / coins / payments ===

* Payment by card worked mostly well, other than the supermarket not accepting international cards. My main issue was that the payment system was not well enough explained before the actual event! The blog post and wiki page were pretty long and still left me confused about what the actual payment system on the field was going to end up being. Even a simple "TL;DR we will use regular international payment cards with chip/contactless" would have helped me. [[User:Vurpo|Vurpo]] ([[User talk:Vurpo|talk]]) 21:04, 30 July 2022 (CEST)
* I asked at several bars and the food court where I could get the prepaid card for the MCH payment system, but nobody knew, so I ended up using my regular payment card. [[User:Alxndr|Alxndr]] ([[User talk:Alxndr|talk]]
** The MCH payment system only was operational from about day 3. - [[User:Noor|Noor]]
* I liked the idea of the cashless QR-code, especially the later upgrade to a "hard card" rather than just a stub of thermal paper. Avoids using the big payment providers and frees one of having to carry around cash. However I would've loved seeing more universal acceptance around the event (for example at the supermarket). -- [[User:Rot13|Rot13]] ([[User talk:Rot13|talk]])
* As a foreigner visiting, I was VERY happy that I could use my card to tap and pay almost everywhere. Get the supermarket on board next time and you get a perfect score from me! The QR code system also worked quite well (I took payment at the bar a few times). I was impressed, well done. - [[User:HerraBRE|HerraBRE]]

=== Harbour / Ferry ===

* Loved the ferry service not as much as a shuttle to the other side of the water way, but as a way to enjoy some quiet time and a light breeze to (mentally) recharge away from the event. -- [[User:Rot13|Rot13]] ([[User talk:Rot13|talk]])

=== Information / infodesk / wiki ===

* The infodesk should've been open for longer/as long as possible. (background: I've sat on the NOC helpdesk a bunch of times after the last infodesk angles were gone and dealt with quite a few people that were originally looking for the helpdesk; also being able to respond to infodesk calls for longer). -- [[User:Rot13|Rot13]] ([[User talk:Rot13|talk]])

=== Lounges ===

* Silent lounge was very well done. Nicely decorated and people behaving very considerate (i.e. really tried to be silent). No wonder that it was popular to the point where it could've used more pillows. I was worried that people would start camping inside the lounge (similar things happen at congress for example), but that didn't turn out to be true. I've seen plenty of people taking a nap away from the noise of the event, but thankfully nobody started living inside the lounge. -- [[User:Rot13|Rot13]] ([[User talk:Rot13|talk]])
* Besides the silent lounge, I wish there were more places for people, especially for those without a village, to relax in the shade near an Ethernet port and power socket. In the harbour there was the wood table with tent roof and the bar with a couple of seats, but both away from power sockets. Besides that a few deckchairs. Otherwise mostly hard wooden benches near the food court without shade (and power sockets). -- [[User:Rot13|Rot13]] ([[User talk:Rot13|talk]])
** +1 agreed, a few dedicated shaded outdoor spots would've been nice -- [[User:SK|SK]] ([[User talk:SK|talk]])
** +1 I was going to write the same. Seating on the western part of the food court was hardly used because there was no shadow. Everyone was cramped beneath the roof tent in front of the east bar. On previous events there were more public spaces with roofing, sofas, bean bags, power and network. Nice place with hammocks at the speaker desk but also now shadow. Roof tents would also provide shelter in case of rain (as experienced on previous camps).

=== Merchandise ===

* The designs look great, I'm a fan of the asymmetry and the patterned sleeves. Not being able to go a size up or down from what you ordered online was kind of disappointing. Not a major issue for myself but I know of several people who were sad about this. The [[merch exchange]] is not a great solution, but better than nothing. --[[User:Juerd|Juerd]] ([[User talk:Juerd|talk]]) 20:54, 30 July 2022 (CEST)
* Merch was great: Awesome design and high quality. Preodering saved me from having to stay in a (humongous) line in the heat. -- [[User:Rot13|Rot13]] ([[User talk:Rot13|talk]])
* I absolutely love the hexagonal patterns and diagrams, but the amount of purple/pink was enough to keep me from buying more than a hat (that, and sizes being too big for me). - [[User:Noor|Noor]] ([[User talk:Noor|talk]])
* Nice merch, despite at first not being a fan of the design. Option to preorder is great. -- [[User:SK|SK]] ([[User talk:SK|talk]])
* OK so maybe I'm a dinosaur, but if I'd known that "fitted" was inclusive for "ladies", I wouldn't have ordered a way-too-small T-shirt. Not a complaint really, but maybe that could have been explained better? Help us old farts get with the program! :-D

=== Miscellaneous ===

* Swan family was pretty relaxed with all the people and activity, camping out in the middle of the terrain. - [[User:Noor|Noor]] ([[User talk:Noor|talk]]

=== Music/laser stage / silent disco / Symphony of Fire ===

* Music stage with the flamethrowers, and Symphony of Fire were awesome. - [[User:Noor|Noor]] ([[User talk:Noor|talk]])
* Very well done. Silent disco was a neat solution to the inherent noise conflicts. What exactly is going on could have been a bit more detailed in the schedule, some people were sad they missed interesting things because they didn't realize who was playing. -- [[User:SK|SK]] ([[User talk:SK|talk]])
* For me, the music stage did not really add anything that I would miss if it dit not happen again on a next event. Symphony of Fire was indeed awesome, I wonder if they could have played on a raised podium so more people could have seen what was happening. [[User:Moem|Moem]] ([[User talk:Moem|talk]]) 09:27, 31 July 2022 (CEST)
* Silent disco was so much fun! More, later, longer please! Seems like a great solution for us party animals who don't want calm after 2am. - [[User:HerraBRE|HerraBRE]]

=== NOC / Network ===

* My SFP+ module got to stay in a datenklo. A++++ would camp again. -- [[User:Q3k|Q3k]] ([[User talk:Q3k|talk]])
* Datenklos were sorely missing some CYBER(tm) reflective foil wrapping -- [[User:Rot13|Rot13]] ([[User talk:Rot13|talk]])

=== Other music/noise (outside the official party area) ===

* Bit torn on this one. It is a party event, but there was way too much loud music post 2 AM. Some of us do need sleep. I know, weak etc. I don't recall seeing a clear policy on what is acceptable, might be behind people feeling ok cranking up the volume after midnight. -- [[User:Ahu|Ahu]] ([[User talk:Ahu|talk]])
* The Retro Arcade area was an absolute nuisance at night. They were blasting the neighbouring villages with shitty music and drunken yelling until 2 or 3 am pretty much every day. I can think of several words for this kind of behaviour, and none of them rhyme with "excellent". [[User:Alxndr|Alxndr]] ([[User talk:Alxndr|talk]])
* It seems like while the official policy was 'no noise after 1AM', it wasn't actively enforced for most cases - and I think that enabled people to also treat it a bit more like a hint rather than a rule? Perhaps for future events we should have numerical 'loudness' scores for all fields, forming a gradient, with a higher score letting people be louder and party later, and actually enforce that. That way loud people can camp in loud villages, while those who need peace and quiet can camp in quiet villages. -- [[User:Q3k|Q3k]] ([[User talk:Q3k|talk]])
** I think this was sort-of implemented based on village input, but the usual event fields are just a bit too small for that to work reliably -- [[User:SK|SK]] ([[User talk:SK|talk]])
* This was both badly communicated (FAQ said "until midnight", apparently the actual rule was from 1 am?) and not usefully enforced. Arcade area right next to family village especially apparently could do whatever they wanted. This makes awesome ideas like silent disco for the "official" music stage sadly quite moot. -- [[User:SK|SK]] ([[User talk:SK|talk]])
* second-hand, but if security (i.e. the contact listed for noise complaints on the front page of this wiki!) really responded to calls about this with "don't call us unless there's an actual emergency" some rules seriously need to be re-established -- [[User:SK|SK]] ([[User talk:SK|talk]])
* at the same time small villages further into the "louder sector" (i.e. away from family/silent camping) were told off for having any music on low volume -- [[User:SK|SK]] ([[User talk:SK|talk]])
* Our village was placed in a party area. That was unfortunate. Next time I'll camp in a quiet are even if that means being far away from the village I am interested in. Geraffel adhered to the 1am quiet policy (yay!) but others didn't. They went on till after 4.30 and didn't honor complaints. -- [[User:Mosquito|Mosquito]] ([[User talk:Mosquito|talk]])
* I was sad there was no place to party and dance after 2am. I agree people who want quiet should be able to enjoy quiet, but in a perfect camp there would be room for both. -- [[User:HerraBRE|HerraBRE]]

=== POC / Dect / Fieldphones ===
* I couldn't find advance information as to when the phone / DECT network would be shut off on the wiki, having such information would be useful (but I may just have been looking in the wrong place) -- [[User:Pinoaffe|Pinoaffe]] ([[User talk:Pinoaffe|talk]])
* DECT coverage was great around the whole camp area. -- [[User:Rot13|Rot13]] ([[User talk:Rot13|talk]])
* DECT self-registration worked great (have been used to it for a while now from congress). -- [[User:Rot13|Rot13]] ([[User talk:Rot13|talk]])

=== Parcel deliveries ===
* Many people that ordered things to the field were (seemingly) unaware of how parcel deliveries were supposed to work. This caused unnecessary overhead. -- [[User:Pinoaffe|Pinoaffe]] ([[User talk:Pinoaffe|talk]])
* Collaborating with C3Post may be worthwhile for a next event, though they may not want to deal with large packages. -- [[User:Pinoaffe|Pinoaffe]] ([[User talk:Pinoaffe|talk]])
** Delivering anything of real value sounds like a bad idea (on big events). Besides being way more effort than postcards, parcels (pending delivery) would require (secure-ish) storage space while not out for relivery or if the first delivery attempt failed. We'd also need extra couriers and not hand deliveries out to random passing-by hackers, which also leaks the info on the parcel (such as tracking numbers) to said random hackers. Also some postcards just got lost/didn't get delivered, which would be a real issue with parcels. -- [[User:Trilader|Trilader]] ([[User talk:Trilader|talk]])

=== Press / Media coverage ===

* Put your feedback here :)

=== Productiehuis / C3VOC ===
* MOST EXCELLENT WORK!! -- [[User:Ahu|Ahu]] ([[User talk:Ahu|talk]])
* The video-quality of the (few) talks I watched online was good, and I saw some nice fade effects. [[User:Fhp|Fhp]] ([[User talk:Fhp|talk]])
* The hard cutoff of the intro tune annoys me every time. [[User:Fhp|Fhp]] ([[User talk:Fhp|talk]])
* Kudos to the C3VOC! That was awesome! Video quality was excellent and the fact that each talk appeared in the C3 media archive only a couple of hours later impressed me very much. That is better service than many (or most?) commercial providers deliver. You people are fantastic! -- [[User:Mosquito|Mosquito]] ([[User talk:Mosquito|talk]])

=== Projectleiding ===

* Put your feedback here :)

=== ROC ===

* Wheeze and his team did a excellent job!
* Good work by the warehouse team for doing the battery swaps, saved a lot of time! [[User:MrLinux|MrLinux]]
* Nice we had the HAM radio repeater! [[User:MrLinux|MrLinux]]
* The ROC team lacked a bit on publicity, improvement for 2025! [[User:MrLinux|MrLinux]]
* A QSL-wall could be an idea for 2025! [[User:MrLinux|MrLinux]]
* We missed the VERON at the event [[User:MrLinux|MrLinux]]

=== Safety / stewards / first aid / Fire Marshalls ===

* Phone numbers or other contact information was hard to find at the beginning of the event, added to the wiki later. --[[User:Juerd|Juerd]] ([[User talk:Juerd|talk]]) 20:47, 30 July 2022 (CEST)
* There were no backup mobile phone numbers (at least none published) for reaching the safety teams in case of infrastructure outage, and they were unreachable when the network was down. --[[User:Juerd|Juerd]] ([[User talk:Juerd|talk]]) 20:47, 30 July 2022 (CEST)
* Security: Bike path was open to all, so technically anyone could get on the terrain without a ticket. Which meant at least a few unwelcome visitors. - [[User:Noor|Noor]] ([[User talk:Noor|talk]])

=== Shuttle services (train station, and luggage on site) ===

* Shuttle drop-off point on field should have been marked somewhere on the maps or wiki, during build-up. I spent forever asking around trying to find the drop-off point, only to find it at heaven. - [[User:Noor|Noor]] ([[User talk:Noor|talk]])
* Shuttle was efficient and worked well when I used it -- [[User:SK|SK]] ([[User talk:SK|talk]])
* Shuttle ticket was a bit last-minute and unclear (i.e. afaik never produced an actual "ticket", which lead to questions - and in the end was more like a donation than a strictly-required ticket) -- [[User:SK|SK]] ([[User talk:SK|talk]])

=== Supermarket ===

* The supermarket was a really valuable addition to the event, and probably saved lots of fuel and time for people. I found the prices acceptable, and the choice of products was surprisingly broad! --[[User:Juerd|Juerd]] ([[User talk:Juerd|talk]]) 20:47, 30 July 2022 (CEST)
* Supermarket was a great thing and I hope we'll have it at the next event. -- [[User:Rot13|Rot13]] ([[User talk:Rot13|talk]])
* Supermarket was wonderful, it felt like being back in civilization again and I could just zip inside to get a drink or breakfast for the next morning. - [[User:Noor|Noor]] ([[User talk:Noor|talk]])
* was very useful to have and surprisingly well-stocked (i.e. not just packaged junk food). Next time they'll know to bring less soft-drinks and more Ethernet/USB/... cables ;) -- [[User:SK|SK]] ([[User talk:SK|talk]])
* Guests from abroad struggled to make use of the supermarket, since it didn't accept foreign cards and there was no ATM on site. -- [[User:HerraBRE|HerraBRE]]

=== Sysadmin / bofh ===

* Having had to deal with the crumbling of central infrastructure in other events, I really appreciated the stability of the wiki and Engelsystem before and throughout the event. -- [[User:Rot13|Rot13]] ([[User talk:Rot13|talk]])

=== Terrain ===

* The western way to quiet camping was not accessible: so narrow that you can only go one way at a time and a huge log being in the way.
* The quiet camping area (Wilson field) turned out to be quite crammed and could be bigger for the next event. I assume this was caused by the scouts taking some of that area due to the unfortunate double booking. -- [[User:Rot13|Rot13]] ([[User talk:Rot13|talk]])
* The quiet camping really missed a shower container, nearest was the family village, a 15 mins walk. (with sha2017 there was one)
* Not something really on us, I knew that the public bike path was to remain open. Most bikers were considerable in slowing down when crossing the Backbone at least, but some seemed to really adamant to enforce the negative stereotypes of people on road bikes. Create some speed bumps with cable ramps next time maybe? -- [[User:Dany|Dany]] ([[User talk:Dany|talk]])

=== Ticket and Entrance ===

* Put your feedback here :)

=== Toilets / Showers ===

* The maintenance crew for the toilets/showers did a great job, IMHO, those facilities where usually in very good shape. [[User:Alxndr|Alxndr]] ([[User talk:Alxndr|talk]])
* Easily the best showers of any hacker camp I've been to. -- [[User:Q3k|Q3k]] ([[User talk:Q3k|talk]])
* There should have been showers closer to the quiet camping area. -- [[User:Rot13|Rot13]] ([[User talk:Rot13|talk]])

=== Villages ===

* Put your feedback here :)

=== Village tent/furniture rental (Moebelhaus) ===

* Our tent ended up being rotated by pi/2 compared to the map. This ended up totally throwing off what we were planning. We managed regardless, but it'd be great if in the future these maps would actually reflect reality :). -- [[User:Q3k|Q3k]] ([[User talk:Q3k|talk]])
* Our tent was leaking, especially on the connector between modules. -- [[User:Q3k|Q3k]] ([[User talk:Q3k|talk]])

=== Visitors ===

* Most visitors were excellent, as always. But in the next few years when thinking of the next event, we should probably talk about people who I guess must be new to this community, that are incredibly lax with the photo/filming policy, and behave like consumers instead of participants. --[[User:Juerd|Juerd]] ([[User talk:Juerd|talk]]) 20:49, 30 July 2022 (CEST)

=== Volunteering / Angels ===

* Providing the angels with reusable water bottles was a very good idea. [[User:Alxndr|Alxndr]] ([[User talk:Alxndr|talk]])
** Agreed -- [[User:Rot13|Rot13]] ([[User talk:Rot13|talk]])
** +1 - I did use it a lot more than I expected at first, which was probably quite healthy to do -- [[User:SK|SK]] ([[User talk:SK|talk]])

==== Volunteering ====

* Put your feedback here :)

==== Angel Food ====

* My only complaint about Mecklenb[öoøu]rg(er)? is that I still don't know how to spell their name. The food is wonderful, the people are great too! --[[User:Juerd|Juerd]] ([[User talk:Juerd|talk]]) 20:51, 30 July 2022 (CEST)
* The food was great, as always :) -- [[User:Pinoaffe|Pinoaffe]] ([[User talk:Pinoaffe|talk]])
* The angel food was incredible. One of the highlights of this event. -- [[User:Rot13|Rot13]] ([[User talk:Rot13|talk]])
* Angel food was mostly great, except for the dinner on day 0 and some dishes otherwise. I'd also have appreciated some sort of meat at least every other day. - [[User:Noor|Noor]] ([[User talk:Noor|talk]])
* As always very good. Only complaint lack of coffee mugs -- [[User:SK|SK]] ([[User talk:SK|talk]])
* The Angel food was to die for (sorry, couldn't resist), big thanks to the Mecklenb[öoøu]rg(er) crew for that. Didn't miss a meat option at all. -- [[User:Dany|Dany]] ([[User talk:Dany|talk]])

==== Angel desk and Angel system ====

* I'd really like it if the Engelsystem alert emails contained the actual update in the email content. I'd get spammed with email notifications and if I wanted to actually read the update, I'd have to click through and login to the Engelsystem. I just ended up leaving most of those updates unread throughout the day. - [[User:Noor|Noor]] ([[User talk:Noor|talk]])

==== Heaven ====

* I assume this was just some miscommunication etc, but the outdoor seating was removed too early, esp given covid situation. Otherwise all good. -- [[User:SK|SK]] ([[User talk:SK|talk]])

=== Warehouse ===

* Put your feedback here :)

=== Waste / garbage / trash ===

* Slightly sad that trash was just split into “glass” and “everything else”. It'd be nice if we could at least recycle cardboard/paper! -- [[User:Q3k|Q3k]] ([[User talk:Q3k|talk]])
** Agreed. Throwing everything into the "Other Waste" containers felt wrong. I understand this was on the waste company dropping the ball. Let's make sure this won't happen at the next event. -- [[User:Rot13|Rot13]] ([[User talk:Rot13|talk]])
* an awful lot of mate etc bottles ended up in glass trash I think - the later-deployed bottle collection crates helped with that -- [[User:SK|SK]] ([[User talk:SK|talk]])

Please post these on the [[memories]] page.

== How to post feedback ==

First of all, let's talk about negativity bias a bit. Please make sure to post a fair balance between positive and negative feedback. Feedback about what went wrong is important, but feedback about what went right is even more important. Do share your negativity, but please be kind and remember we're a bunch of volunteers. To thrive and continue to organize these events, we need a certain amount of positivity, preferably a list of the very specific things you loved and would like to experience again!

<nowiki>Please add your feedback below. Use * to add a bullet point, *: to add an indented bullet point (adding to or replying to comment above), and -- ~~~ to sign your name. </nowiki>

Example:

== Topics ==

=== General / overall ===

* So happy about the progressive pride and Antifa flag on the tower
* Awesome event again, thanks to everyone who did their part to making it such -- [[User:SK|SK]] ([[User talk:SK|talk]])
* It was fantastic and I am already stoked for the next one! -- [[User:Mosquito|Mosquito]] ([[User talk:Mosquito|talk]])
* I had a great camp overall, it was way more comfortable than I'd expected and things seemed to run smoothly. Being greeted by progressive pride flag on the Orga tent and tower instantly made me feel at ease. -- [[User:Dany|Dany]] ([[User talk:Dany|talk]])

=== Arrival / departure / parking / train shuttle / luggage shuttle ===

* I was surprised twice that empty places in the field were apparently claimed. It was not clear to me that people had staked out places already on the wiki. This would seem to me one of The Most Important Things To Tell People: "whatever is on the wiki wins". Or perhaps abolish that, also fine by me, but in any case be very clear about it. I could also do with an AR app or so that shows me what people claimed :-) -- [[User:Ahu|Ahu]] ([[User talk:Ahu|talk]])

* Last day of the event felt kinda "lost" as people were beginning to tear things down from early on in the day well before the closing event. Was bit of a weird mood/feeling. -- [[User:Rot13|Rot13]] ([[User talk:Rot13|talk]])

=== Badge ===

* Very well-made and polished badge, really surprised me with the effort put into it and its versatility! [[User:Vurpo|Vurpo]] ([[User talk:Vurpo|talk]]) 21:07, 30 July 2022 (CEST)
* The badge is really nice, but the price of MCH admission is already hindering people we'd like to reach. Perhaps do consider if we really need it. -- [[User:Ahu|Ahu]] ([[User talk:Ahu|talk]])
* Awesome badge, I had a lot of fun tinkering with it during camp and always received helpful advice in the IRC channel. Please keep this project going! [[User:Alxndr|Alxndr]] ([[User talk:Alxndr|talk]])

=== Bars and food court ===

* The capacity of the food-stands was quite low, which resulted in long waiting times. Not good with hungry kids. [[User:Fhp|Fhp]] ([[User talk:Fhp|talk]])
* Agree with above: low capacity for the commercial food stands. They also didn't seem to grasp the concept of 'lunch'. I expected them to be up and running around 13.00, but most of them weren't, resulting in even longer lines at the places that were open earlier. -- [[User:Dany|Dany]] ([[User talk:Dany|talk]])
* The food stands I've visited (Wok, Fries) had poor in-person advertising of everything that they were actually selling and how much it cost. -- [[User:Rot13|Rot13]] ([[User talk:Rot13|talk]])
* The Johny Cash Burger was great but mostly I fed on waffles by the awesome C3WOC <3. And of course one can rely on the Italian Hackers' Embassy for excellent pasta. By the way... is there a Spanish or French Embassy with similar services? Would put that on my checklist for the next camp. ;-) Oh and Angel Food was also great and healthy. Didn't miss meat there, eating more veg is better for the environment anyways. Thanks for the opportunity! Conclusion: Wide range, many choices, very good! -- [[User:Mosquito|Mosquito]] ([[User talk:Mosquito|talk]])

=== Buildup and teardown ===

* As one of the persons who collected what felt like a kilometre of Flatterband at teardown, and removed a pile of pegs it was attached to, I would like to thank those buildup angels who didn't sink the pegs below ground level. You made my job a lot easier! :) [[User:Alxndr|Alxndr]] ([[User talk:Alxndr|talk]])

=== COVID19 precautions ===

* Thanks for caring about ventilation. [https://grafana.mch2022.org/d/q9gZutJ7z/mch2022?orgId=1&viewPanel=30&from=1658492800367&to=1658853839068 CO2 meters] and open sides weren't in place during the opening talk, but this was fixed quickly after and I heard the security team kept an eye on the graphs. --[[User:Juerd|Juerd]] ([[User talk:Juerd|talk]]) 20:43, 30 July 2022 (CEST)
* I liked the availability of masks and self tests for those who forgot to bring their own. I've heard about a few dozen people who got infected, but there were probably more. Thanks to the rapid tests and the heroes who chose to isolate, we may have averted a disastrous superspreading event. --[[User:Juerd|Juerd]] ([[User talk:Juerd|talk]]) 22:02, 30 July 2022 (CEST)
** Very much appreciated the easy availability of masks and rapid tests. -- [[User:Rot13|Rot13]] ([[User talk:Rot13|talk]])
* It would have been good to switch from recommended to required mask wearing, at least indoors, once it became clear that "personal responsibility" wasn't working out (even in this community, what a disappointment). [[User:Alxndr|Alxndr]] ([[User talk:Alxndr|talk]])
** Agreeing on all points. Was also a bit disappointed. -- [[User:Rot13|Rot13]] ([[User talk:Rot13|talk]])
* It was good to request/require mask wearing in the food queue in Heaven. It would have been even better to do it from the very beginning. [[User:Moem|Moem]] ([[User talk:Moem|talk]]) 09:20, 31 July 2022 (CEST)

=== Cohesion ===

* Put your feedback here :)

=== Content / talks / heralds / speakerdesk / AV / recordings ===

* In the end it worked pretty well, but perhaps do ponder having some "known good" presenter laptops/devices available. This has worked very well for other conferences. I used a 200 euro Chromebook with a throwaway google account. -- [[User:Ahu|Ahu]] ([[User talk:Ahu|talk]])
* This is a matter of taste - if you light up the speakers real well, the audience can enjoy a well lighted speaker. But the speaker then often can't see the audience. And during my talks, I love to actually see the audience. This was better in 2017 (at least in Abacus and Battery). -- [[User:Ahu|Ahu]] ([[User talk:Ahu|talk]])
* The speaker desk and the room to work is absolutely ACE. -- [[User:Ahu|Ahu]] ([[User talk:Ahu|talk]])
* Very friendly and helpful people at the speakerdesk and also Heralds and other Angels. Dry running my laptop with the monitor at the Speaker Desk before the talk made me much calmer once I knew that worked. Thank you! -- [[User:Mosquito|Mosquito]] ([[User talk:Mosquito|talk]])

=== Decoration / design ===

* Well done all around -- [[User:SK|SK]] ([[User talk:SK|talk]]) 01:07, 31 July 2022 (CEST)
* The design was so colorful and well thought out, it gave team Deco a lot to work with. Great job! [[User:Moem|Moem]] ([[User talk:Moem|talk]]) 09:22, 31 July 2022 (CEST)
* The deco was really cool, I especially liked the UV-reactive strings that gave the illusion of lasers and the super cute felt plants in the Silent Lounge. -- [[User:Dany|Dany]] ([[User talk:Dany|talk]])

=== Family / kids ===

* Put your feedback here :)

=== Finance / coins / payments ===

* Payment by card worked mostly well, other than the supermarket not accepting international cards. My main issue was that the payment system was not well enough explained before the actual event! The blog post and wiki page were pretty long and still left me confused about what the actual payment system on the field was going to end up being. Even a simple "TL;DR we will use regular international payment cards with chip/contactless" would have helped me. [[User:Vurpo|Vurpo]] ([[User talk:Vurpo|talk]]) 21:04, 30 July 2022 (CEST)
* I asked at several bars and the food court where I could get the prepaid card for the MCH payment system, but nobody knew, so I ended up using my regular payment card. [[User:Alxndr|Alxndr]] ([[User talk:Alxndr|talk]]
** The MCH payment system only was operational from about day 3. - [[User:Noor|Noor]]
* I liked the idea of the cashless QR-code, especially the later upgrade to a "hard card" rather than just a stub of thermal paper. Avoids using the big payment providers and frees one of having to carry around cash. However I would've loved seeing more universal acceptance around the event (for example at the supermarket). -- [[User:Rot13|Rot13]] ([[User talk:Rot13|talk]])

=== Harbour / Ferry ===

* Loved the ferry service not as much as a shuttle to the other side of the water way, but as a way to enjoy some quiet time and a light breeze to (mentally) recharge away from the event. -- [[User:Rot13|Rot13]] ([[User talk:Rot13|talk]])

=== Information / infodesk / wiki ===

* The infodesk should've been open for longer/as long as possible. (background: I've sat on the NOC helpdesk a bunch of times after the last infodesk angles were gone and dealt with quite a few people that were originally looking for the helpdesk; also being able to respond to infodesk calls for longer). -- [[User:Rot13|Rot13]] ([[User talk:Rot13|talk]])

=== Lounges ===

* Silent lounge was very well done. Nicely decorated and people behaving very considerate (i.e. really tried to be silent). No wonder that it was popular to the point where it could've used more pillows. I was worried that people would start camping inside the lounge (similar things happen at congress for example), but that didn't turn out to be true. I've seen plenty of people taking a nap away from the noise of the event, but thankfully nobody started living inside the lounge. -- [[User:Rot13|Rot13]] ([[User talk:Rot13|talk]])
* Besides the silent lounge, I wish there were more places for people, especially for those without a village, to relax in the shade near an Ethernet port and power socket. In the harbour there was the wood table with tent roof and the bar with a couple of seats, but both away from power sockets. Besides that a few deckchairs. Otherwise mostly hard wooden benches near the food court without shade (and power sockets). -- [[User:Rot13|Rot13]] ([[User talk:Rot13|talk]])
** +1 agreed, a few dedicated shaded outdoor spots would've been nice -- [[User:SK|SK]] ([[User talk:SK|talk]])
** +1 I was going to write the same. Seating on the western part of the food court was hardly used because there was no shadow. Everyone was cramped beneath the roof tent in front of the east bar. On previous events there were more public spaces with roofing, sofas, bean bags, power and network. Nice place with hammocks at the speaker desk but also now shadow. Roof tents would also provide shelter in case of rain (as experienced on previous camps).

=== Merchandise ===

* The designs look great, I'm a fan of the asymmetry and the patterned sleeves. Not being able to go a size up or down from what you ordered online was kind of disappointing. Not a major issue for myself but I know of several people who were sad about this. The [[merch exchange]] is not a great solution, but better than nothing. --[[User:Juerd|Juerd]] ([[User talk:Juerd|talk]]) 20:54, 30 July 2022 (CEST)
* Merch was great: Awesome design and high quality. Preodering saved me from having to stay in a (humongous) line in the heat. -- [[User:Rot13|Rot13]] ([[User talk:Rot13|talk]])
* I absolutely love the hexagonal patterns and diagrams, but the amount of purple/pink was enough to keep me from buying more than a hat (that, and sizes being too big for me). - [[User:Noor|Noor]] ([[User talk:Noor|talk]])
* Nice merch, despite at first not being a fan of the design. Option to preorder is great. -- [[User:SK|SK]] ([[User talk:SK|talk]])

=== Miscellaneous ===

* Swan family was pretty relaxed with all the people and activity, camping out in the middle of the terrain. - [[User:Noor|Noor]] ([[User talk:Noor|talk]]

=== Music/laser stage / silent disco / Symphony of Fire ===

* Music stage with the flamethrowers, and Symphony of Fire were awesome. - [[User:Noor|Noor]] ([[User talk:Noor|talk]])
* Very well done. Silent disco was a neat solution to the inherent noise conflicts. What exactly is going on could have been a bit more detailed in the schedule, some people were sad they missed interesting things because they didn't realize who was playing. -- [[User:SK|SK]] ([[User talk:SK|talk]])
* For me, the music stage did not really add anything that I would miss if it dit not happen again on a next event. Symphony of Fire was indeed awesome, I wonder if they could have played on a raised podium so more people could have seen what was happening. [[User:Moem|Moem]] ([[User talk:Moem|talk]]) 09:27, 31 July 2022 (CEST)

=== NOC / Network ===

* My SFP+ module got to stay in a datenklo. A++++ would camp again. -- [[User:Q3k|Q3k]] ([[User talk:Q3k|talk]])
* Datenklos were sorely missing some CYBER(tm) reflective foil wrapping -- [[User:Rot13|Rot13]] ([[User talk:Rot13|talk]])

=== Other music/noise (outside the official party area) ===

* Bit torn on this one. It is a party event, but there was way too much loud music post 2 AM. Some of us do need sleep. I know, weak etc. I don't recall seeing a clear policy on what is acceptable, might be behind people feeling ok cranking up the volume after midnight. -- [[User:Ahu|Ahu]] ([[User talk:Ahu|talk]])
* The Retro Arcade area was an absolute nuisance at night. They were blasting the neighbouring villages with shitty music and drunken yelling until 2 or 3 am pretty much every day. I can think of several words for this kind of behaviour, and none of them rhyme with "excellent". [[User:Alxndr|Alxndr]] ([[User talk:Alxndr|talk]])
* It seems like while the official policy was 'no noise after 1AM', it wasn't actively enforced for most cases - and I think that enabled people to also treat it a bit more like a hint rather than a rule? Perhaps for future events we should have numerical 'loudness' scores for all fields, forming a gradient, with a higher score letting people be louder and party later, and actually enforce that. That way loud people can camp in loud villages, while those who need peace and quiet can camp in quiet villages. -- [[User:Q3k|Q3k]] ([[User talk:Q3k|talk]])
** I think this was sort-of implemented based on village input, but the usual event fields are just a bit too small for that to work reliably -- [[User:SK|SK]] ([[User talk:SK|talk]])
* This was both badly communicated (FAQ said "until midnight", apparently the actual rule was from 1 am?) and not usefully enforced. Arcade area right next to family village especially apparently could do whatever they wanted. This makes awesome ideas like silent disco for the "official" music stage sadly quite moot. -- [[User:SK|SK]] ([[User talk:SK|talk]])
* second-hand, but if security (i.e. the contact listed for noise complaints on the front page of this wiki!) really responded to calls about this with "don't call us unless there's an actual emergency" some rules seriously need to be re-established -- [[User:SK|SK]] ([[User talk:SK|talk]])
* at the same time small villages further into the "louder sector" (i.e. away from family/silent camping) were told off for having any music on low volume -- [[User:SK|SK]] ([[User talk:SK|talk]])
* Our village was placed in a party area. That was unfortunate. Next time I'll camp in a quiet are even if that means being far away from the village I am interested in. Geraffel adhered to the 1am quiet policy (yay!) but others didn't. They went on till after 4.30 and didn't honor complaints. -- [[User:Mosquito|Mosquito]] ([[User talk:Mosquito|talk]])

=== POC / Dect / Fieldphones ===
* I couldn't find advance information as to when the phone / DECT network would be shut off on the wiki, having such information would be useful (but I may just have been looking in the wrong place) -- [[User:Pinoaffe|Pinoaffe]] ([[User talk:Pinoaffe|talk]])
* DECT coverage was great around the whole camp area. -- [[User:Rot13|Rot13]] ([[User talk:Rot13|talk]])
* DECT self-registration worked great (have been used to it for a while now from congress). -- [[User:Rot13|Rot13]] ([[User talk:Rot13|talk]])

=== Parcel deliveries ===

* Collaborating with C3Post may be worthwhile for a next event, though they may not want to deal with large packages. -- [[User:Pinoaffe|Pinoaffe]] ([[User talk:Pinoaffe|talk]])
** Delivering anything of real value sounds like a bad idea (on big events). Besides being way more effort than postcards, parcels (pending delivery) would require (secure-ish) storage space while not out for relivery or if the first delivery attempt failed. We'd also need extra couriers and not hand deliveries out to random passing-by hackers, which also leaks the info on the parcel (such as tracking numbers) to said random hackers. Also some postcards just got lost/didn't get delivered, which would be a real issue with parcels. -- [[User:Trilader|Trilader]] ([[User talk:Trilader|talk]])

=== Press / Media coverage ===

* Put your feedback here :)

=== Productiehuis / C3VOC ===
* MOST EXCELLENT WORK!! -- [[User:Ahu|Ahu]] ([[User talk:Ahu|talk]])
* The video-quality of the (few) talks I watched online was good, and I saw some nice fade effects. [[User:Fhp|Fhp]] ([[User talk:Fhp|talk]])
* The hard cutoff of the intro tune annoys me every time. [[User:Fhp|Fhp]] ([[User talk:Fhp|talk]])
* Kudos to the C3VOC! That was awesome! Video quality was excellent and the fact that each talk appeared in the C3 media archive only a couple of hours later impressed me very much. That is better service than many (or most?) commercial providers deliver. You people are fantastic! -- [[User:Mosquito|Mosquito]] ([[User talk:Mosquito|talk]])

=== Projectleiding ===

* Put your feedback here :)

=== ROC ===

* Put your feedback here :)

=== Safety / stewards / first aid / Fire Marshalls ===

* Phone numbers or other contact information was hard to find at the beginning of the event, added to the wiki later. --[[User:Juerd|Juerd]] ([[User talk:Juerd|talk]]) 20:47, 30 July 2022 (CEST)
* There were no backup mobile phone numbers (at least none published) for reaching the safety teams in case of infrastructure outage, and they were unreachable when the network was down. --[[User:Juerd|Juerd]] ([[User talk:Juerd|talk]]) 20:47, 30 July 2022 (CEST)
* Security: Bike path was open to all, so technically anyone could get on the terrain without a ticket. Which meant at least a few unwelcome visitors. - [[User:Noor|Noor]] ([[User talk:Noor|talk]])

=== Shuttle services (train station, and luggage on site) ===

* Shuttle drop-off point on field should have been marked somewhere on the maps or wiki, during build-up. I spent forever asking around trying to find the drop-off point, only to find it at heaven. - [[User:Noor|Noor]] ([[User talk:Noor|talk]])
* Shuttle was efficient and worked well when I used it -- [[User:SK|SK]] ([[User talk:SK|talk]])
* Shuttle ticket was a bit last-minute and unclear (i.e. afaik never produced an actual "ticket", which lead to questions - and in the end was more like a donation than a strictly-required ticket) -- [[User:SK|SK]] ([[User talk:SK|talk]])

=== Supermarket ===

* The supermarket was a really valuable addition to the event, and probably saved lots of fuel and time for people. I found the prices acceptable, and the choice of products was surprisingly broad! --[[User:Juerd|Juerd]] ([[User talk:Juerd|talk]]) 20:47, 30 July 2022 (CEST)
* Supermarket was a great thing and I hope we'll have it at the next event. -- [[User:Rot13|Rot13]] ([[User talk:Rot13|talk]])
* Supermarket was wonderful, it felt like being back in civilization again and I could just zip inside to get a drink or breakfast for the next morning. - [[User:Noor|Noor]] ([[User talk:Noor|talk]])
* was very useful to have and surprisingly well-stocked (i.e. not just packaged junk food). Next time they'll know to bring less soft-drinks and more Ethernet/USB/... cables ;) -- [[User:SK|SK]] ([[User talk:SK|talk]])

=== Sysadmin / bofh ===

* Having had to deal with the crumbling of central infrastructure in other events, I really appreciated the stability of the wiki and Engelsystem before and throughout the event. -- [[User:Rot13|Rot13]] ([[User talk:Rot13|talk]])

=== Terrain ===

* The western way to quiet camping was not accessible: so narrow that you can only go one way at a time and a huge log being in the way.
* The quiet camping area (Wilson field) turned out to be quite crammed and could be bigger for the next event. I assume this was caused by the scouts taking some of that area due to the unfortunate double booking. -- [[User:Rot13|Rot13]] ([[User talk:Rot13|talk]])

=== Ticket and Entrance ===

* Put your feedback here :)

=== Toilets / Showers ===

* The maintenance crew for the toilets/showers did a great job, IMHO, those facilities where usually in very good shape. [[User:Alxndr|Alxndr]] ([[User talk:Alxndr|talk]])
* Easily the best showers of any hacker camp I've been to. -- [[User:Q3k|Q3k]] ([[User talk:Q3k|talk]])
* There should have been showers closer to the quiet camping area. -- [[User:Rot13|Rot13]] ([[User talk:Rot13|talk]])

=== Villages ===

* Put your feedback here :)

=== Village tent/furniture rental (Moebelhaus) ===

* Our tent ended up being rotated by pi/2 compared to the map. This ended up totally throwing off what we were planning. We managed regardless, but it'd be great if in the future these maps would actually reflect reality :). -- [[User:Q3k|Q3k]] ([[User talk:Q3k|talk]])
* Our tent was leaking, especially on the connector between modules. -- [[User:Q3k|Q3k]] ([[User talk:Q3k|talk]])

=== Visitors ===

* Most visitors were excellent, as always. But in the next few years when thinking of the next event, we should probably talk about people who I guess must be new to this community, that are incredibly lax with the photo/filming policy, and behave like consumers instead of participants. --[[User:Juerd|Juerd]] ([[User talk:Juerd|talk]]) 20:49, 30 July 2022 (CEST)

=== Volunteering / Angels ===

* Providing the angels with reusable water bottles was a very good idea. [[User:Alxndr|Alxndr]] ([[User talk:Alxndr|talk]])
** Agreed -- [[User:Rot13|Rot13]] ([[User talk:Rot13|talk]])
** +1 - I did use it a lot more than I expected at first, which was probably quite healthy to do -- [[User:SK|SK]] ([[User talk:SK|talk]])

==== Volunteering ====

* Put your feedback here :)

==== Angel Food ====

* My only complaint about Mecklenb[öoøu]rg(er)? is that I still don't know how to spell their name. The food is wonderful, the people are great too! --[[User:Juerd|Juerd]] ([[User talk:Juerd|talk]]) 20:51, 30 July 2022 (CEST)
* The food was great, as always :) -- [[User:Pinoaffe|Pinoaffe]] ([[User talk:Pinoaffe|talk]])
* The angel food was incredible. One of the highlights of this event. -- [[User:Rot13|Rot13]] ([[User talk:Rot13|talk]])
* Angel food was mostly great, except for the dinner on day 0 and some dishes otherwise. I'd also have appreciated some sort of meat at least every other day. - [[User:Noor|Noor]] ([[User talk:Noor|talk]])
* As always very good. Only complaint lack of coffee mugs -- [[User:SK|SK]] ([[User talk:SK|talk]])
* The Angel food was to die for (sorry, couldn't resist), big thanks to the Mecklenb[öoøu]rg(er) crew for that. Didn't miss a meat option at all. -- [[User:Dany|Dany]] ([[User talk:Dany|talk]])

==== Angel desk and Angel system ====

* I'd really like it if the Engelsystem alert emails contained the actual update in the email content. I'd get spammed with email notifications and if I wanted to actually read the update, I'd have to click through and login to the Engelsystem. I just ended up leaving most of those updates unread throughout the day. - [[User:Noor|Noor]] ([[User talk:Noor|talk]])

==== Heaven ====

* I assume this was just some miscommunication etc, but the outdoor seating was removed too early, esp given covid situation. Otherwise all good. -- [[User:SK|SK]] ([[User talk:SK|talk]])

=== Warehouse ===

* Put your feedback here :)

=== Waste / garbage / trash ===

* Slightly sad that trash was just split into “glass” and “everything else”. It'd be nice if we could at least recycle cardboard/paper! -- [[User:Q3k|Q3k]] ([[User talk:Q3k|talk]])
** Agreed. Throwing everything into the "Other Waste" containers felt wrong. I understand this was on the waste company dropping the ball. Let's make sure this won't happen at the next event. -- [[User:Rot13|Rot13]] ([[User talk:Rot13|talk]])
* an awful lot of mate etc bottles ended up in glass trash I think - the later-deployed bottle collection crates helped with that -- [[User:SK|SK]] ([[User talk:SK|talk]])

Please post these on the [[memories]] page.

== How to post feedback ==

First of all, let's talk about negativity bias a bit. Please make sure to post a fair balance between positive and negative feedback. Feedback about what went wrong is important, but feedback about what went right is even more important. Do share your negativity, but please be kind and remember we're a bunch of volunteers. To thrive and continue to organize these events, we need a certain amount of positivity, preferably a list of the very specific things you loved and would like to experience again!

<nowiki>Please add your feedback below. Use * to add a bullet point, *: to add an indented bullet point (adding to or replying to comment above), and -- ~~~ to sign your name. </nowiki>

=== General / overall ===

* So happy about the progressive pride and Antifa flag on the tower
* Awesome event again, thanks to everyone who did their part to making it such -- [[User:SK|SK]] ([[User talk:SK|talk]])
* It was fantastic and I am already stoked for the next one! -- [[User:Mosquito|Mosquito]] ([[User talk:Mosquito|talk]])
* I had a great camp overall, it was way more comfortable than I'd expected and things seemed to run smoothly. Being greeted by progressive pride flag on the Orga tent and tower instantly made me feel at ease. -- [[User:Dany|Dany]] ([[User talk:Dany|talk]])

=== Arrival / departure / parking / train shuttle / luggage shuttle ===

* I was surprised twice that empty places in the field were apparently claimed. It was not clear to me that people had staked out places already on the wiki. This would seem to me one of The Most Important Things To Tell People: "whatever is on the wiki wins". Or perhaps abolish that, also fine by me, but in any case be very clear about it. I could also do with an AR app or so that shows me what people claimed :-) -- [[User:Ahu|Ahu]] ([[User talk:Ahu|talk]])

* Last day of the event felt kinda "lost" as people were beginning to tear things down from early on in the day well before the closing event. Was bit of a weird mood/feeling. -- [[User:Rot13|Rot13]] ([[User talk:Rot13|talk]])

=== Badge ===

* Very well-made and polished badge, really surprised me with the effort put into it and its versatility! [[User:Vurpo|Vurpo]] ([[User talk:Vurpo|talk]]) 21:07, 30 July 2022 (CEST)
* The badge is really nice, but the price of MCH admission is already hindering people we'd like to reach. Perhaps do consider if we really need it. -- [[User:Ahu|Ahu]] ([[User talk:Ahu|talk]])
* Awesome badge, I had a lot of fun tinkering with it during camp and always received helpful advice in the IRC channel. Please keep this project going! [[User:Alxndr|Alxndr]] ([[User talk:Alxndr|talk]])

=== Bars and food court ===

* The capacity of the food-stands was quite low, which resulted in long waiting times. Not good with hungry kids. [[User:Fhp|Fhp]] ([[User talk:Fhp|talk]])
* Agree with above: low capacity for the commercial food stands. They also didn't seem to grasp the concept of 'lunch'. I expected them to be up and running around 13.00, but most of them weren't, resulting in even longer lines at the places that were open earlier. -- [[User:Dany|Dany]] ([[User talk:Dany|talk]])
* The food stands I've visited (Wok, Fries) had poor in-person advertising of everything that they were actually selling and how much it cost. -- [[User:Rot13|Rot13]] ([[User talk:Rot13|talk]])
* The Johny Cash Burger was great but mostly I fed on waffles by the awesome C3WOC <3. And of course one can rely on the Italian Hackers' Embassy for excellent pasta. By the way... is there a Spanish or French Embassy with similar services? Would put that on my checklist for the next camp. ;-) Oh and Angel Food was also great and healthy. Didn't miss meat there, eating more veg is better for the environment anyways. Thanks for the opportunity! Conclusion: Wide range, many choices, very good! -- [[User:Mosquito|Mosquito]] ([[User talk:Mosquito|talk]])

=== Buildup and teardown ===

* As one of the persons who collected what felt like a kilometre of Flatterband at teardown, and removed a pile of pegs it was attached to, I would like to thank those buildup angels who didn't sink the pegs below ground level. You made my job a lot easier! :) [[User:Alxndr|Alxndr]] ([[User talk:Alxndr|talk]])

=== COVID19 precautions ===

* Thanks for caring about ventilation. [https://grafana.mch2022.org/d/q9gZutJ7z/mch2022?orgId=1&viewPanel=30&from=1658492800367&to=1658853839068 CO2 meters] and open sides weren't in place during the opening talk, but this was fixed quickly after and I heard the security team kept an eye on the graphs. --[[User:Juerd|Juerd]] ([[User talk:Juerd|talk]]) 20:43, 30 July 2022 (CEST)
* I liked the availability of masks and self tests for those who forgot to bring their own. I've heard about a few dozen people who got infected, but there were probably more. Thanks to the rapid tests and the heroes who chose to isolate, we may have averted a disastrous superspreading event. --[[User:Juerd|Juerd]] ([[User talk:Juerd|talk]]) 22:02, 30 July 2022 (CEST)
** Very much appreciated the easy availability of masks and rapid tests. -- [[User:Rot13|Rot13]] ([[User talk:Rot13|talk]])
* It would have been good to switch from recommended to required mask wearing, at least indoors, once it became clear that "personal responsibility" wasn't working out (even in this community, what a disappointment). [[User:Alxndr|Alxndr]] ([[User talk:Alxndr|talk]])
** Agreeing on all points. Was also a bit disappointed. -- [[User:Rot13|Rot13]] ([[User talk:Rot13|talk]])
* It was good to request/require mask wearing in the food queue in Heaven. It would have been even better to do it from the very beginning. [[User:Moem|Moem]] ([[User talk:Moem|talk]]) 09:20, 31 July 2022 (CEST)

=== Cohesion ===

* Put your feedback here :)

=== Content / talks / heralds / speakerdesk / AV / recordings ===

* In the end it worked pretty well, but perhaps do ponder having some "known good" presenter laptops/devices available. This has worked very well for other conferences. I used a 200 euro Chromebook with a throwaway google account. -- [[User:Ahu|Ahu]] ([[User talk:Ahu|talk]])
* This is a matter of taste - if you light up the speakers real well, the audience can enjoy a well lighted speaker. But the speaker then often can't see the audience. And during my talks, I love to actually see the audience. This was better in 2017 (at least in Abacus and Battery). -- [[User:Ahu|Ahu]] ([[User talk:Ahu|talk]])
* The speaker desk and the room to work is absolutely ACE. -- [[User:Ahu|Ahu]] ([[User talk:Ahu|talk]])
* Very friendly and helpful people at the speakerdesk and also Heralds and other Angels. Dry running my laptop with the monitor at the Speaker Desk before the talk made me much calmer once I knew that worked. Thank you! -- [[User:Mosquito|Mosquito]] ([[User talk:Mosquito|talk]])

=== Decoration / design ===

* Well done all around -- [[User:SK|SK]] ([[User talk:SK|talk]]) 01:07, 31 July 2022 (CEST)
* The design was so colorful and well thought out, it gave team Deco a lot to work with. Great job! [[User:Moem|Moem]] ([[User talk:Moem|talk]]) 09:22, 31 July 2022 (CEST)

=== Family / kids ===

* Put your feedback here :)

=== Finance / coins / payments ===

* Payment by card worked mostly well, other than the supermarket not accepting international cards. My main issue was that the payment system was not well enough explained before the actual event! The blog post and wiki page were pretty long and still left me confused about what the actual payment system on the field was going to end up being. Even a simple "TL;DR we will use regular international payment cards with chip/contactless" would have helped me. [[User:Vurpo|Vurpo]] ([[User talk:Vurpo|talk]]) 21:04, 30 July 2022 (CEST)
* I asked at several bars and the food court where I could get the prepaid card for the MCH payment system, but nobody knew, so I ended up using my regular payment card. [[User:Alxndr|Alxndr]] ([[User talk:Alxndr|talk]]
** The MCH payment system only was operational from about day 3. - [[User:Noor|Noor]]
* I liked the idea of the cashless QR-code, especially the later upgrade to a "hard card" rather than just a stub of thermal paper. Avoids using the big payment providers and frees one of having to carry around cash. However I would've loved seeing more universal acceptance around the event (for example at the supermarket). -- [[User:Rot13|Rot13]] ([[User talk:Rot13|talk]])

=== Harbour / Ferry ===

* Loved the ferry service not as much as a shuttle to the other side of the water way, but as a way to enjoy some quiet time and a light breeze to (mentally) recharge away from the event. -- [[User:Rot13|Rot13]] ([[User talk:Rot13|talk]])

=== Information / infodesk / wiki ===

* The infodesk should've been open for longer/as long as possible. (background: I've sat on the NOC helpdesk a bunch of times after the last infodesk angles were gone and dealt with quite a few people that were originally looking for the helpdesk; also being able to respond to infodesk calls for longer). -- [[User:Rot13|Rot13]] ([[User talk:Rot13|talk]])

=== Lounges ===

* Silent lounge was very well done. Nicely decorated and people behaving very considerate (i.e. really tried to be silent). No wonder that it was popular to the point where it could've used more pillows. I was worried that people would start camping inside the lounge (similar things happen at congress for example), but that didn't turn out to be true. I've seen plenty of people taking a nap away from the noise of the event, but thankfully nobody started living inside the lounge. -- [[User:Rot13|Rot13]] ([[User talk:Rot13|talk]])
* Besides the silent lounge, I wish there were more places for people, especially for those without a village, to relax in the shade near an Ethernet port and power socket. In the harbour there was the wood table with tent roof and the bar with a couple of seats, but both away from power sockets. Besides that a few deckchairs. Otherwise mostly hard wooden benches near the food court without shade (and power sockets). -- [[User:Rot13|Rot13]] ([[User talk:Rot13|talk]])
** +1 agreed, a few dedicated shaded outdoor spots would've been nice -- [[User:SK|SK]] ([[User talk:SK|talk]])
** +1 I was going to write the same. Seating on the western part of the food court was hardly used because there was no shadow. Everyone was cramped beneath the roof tent in front of the east bar. On previous events there were more public spaces with roofing, sofas, bean bags, power and network. Nice place with hammocks at the speaker desk but also now shadow. Roof tents would also provide shelter in case of rain (as experienced on previous camps).

=== Merchandise ===

* The designs look great, I'm a fan of the asymmetry and the patterned sleeves. Not being able to go a size up or down from what you ordered online was kind of disappointing. Not a major issue for myself but I know of several people who were sad about this. The [[merch exchange]] is not a great solution, but better than nothing. --[[User:Juerd|Juerd]] ([[User talk:Juerd|talk]]) 20:54, 30 July 2022 (CEST)
* Merch was great: Awesome design and high quality. Preodering saved me from having to stay in a (humongous) line in the heat. -- [[User:Rot13|Rot13]] ([[User talk:Rot13|talk]])
* I absolutely love the hexagonal patterns and diagrams, but the amount of purple/pink was enough to keep me from buying more than a hat (that, and sizes being too big for me). - [[User:Noor|Noor]] ([[User talk:Noor|talk]])
* Nice merch, despite at first not being a fan of the design. Option to preorder is great. -- [[User:SK|SK]] ([[User talk:SK|talk]])

=== Miscellaneous ===

* Swan family was pretty relaxed with all the people and activity, camping out in the middle of the terrain. - [[User:Noor|Noor]] ([[User talk:Noor|talk]]

=== Music/laser stage / silent disco / Symphony of Fire ===

* Music stage with the flamethrowers, and Symphony of Fire were awesome. - [[User:Noor|Noor]] ([[User talk:Noor|talk]])
* Very well done. Silent disco was a neat solution to the inherent noise conflicts. What exactly is going on could have been a bit more detailed in the schedule, some people were sad they missed interesting things because they didn't realize who was playing. -- [[User:SK|SK]] ([[User talk:SK|talk]])
* For me, the music stage did not really add anything that I would miss if it dit not happen again on a next event. Symphony of Fire was indeed awesome, I wonder if they could have played on a raised podium so more people could have seen what was happening. [[User:Moem|Moem]] ([[User talk:Moem|talk]]) 09:27, 31 July 2022 (CEST)

=== NOC / Network ===

* My SFP+ module got to stay in a datenklo. A++++ would camp again. -- [[User:Q3k|Q3k]] ([[User talk:Q3k|talk]])
* Datenklos were sorely missing some CYBER(tm) reflective foil wrapping -- [[User:Rot13|Rot13]] ([[User talk:Rot13|talk]])

=== Other music/noise (outside the official party area) ===

* Bit torn on this one. It is a party event, but there was way too much loud music post 2 AM. Some of us do need sleep. I know, weak etc. I don't recall seeing a clear policy on what is acceptable, might be behind people feeling ok cranking up the volume after midnight. -- [[User:Ahu|Ahu]] ([[User talk:Ahu|talk]])
* The Retro Arcade area was an absolute nuisance at night. They were blasting the neighbouring villages with shitty music and drunken yelling until 2 or 3 am pretty much every day. I can think of several words for this kind of behaviour, and none of them rhyme with "excellent". [[User:Alxndr|Alxndr]] ([[User talk:Alxndr|talk]])
* It seems like while the official policy was 'no noise after 1AM', it wasn't actively enforced for most cases - and I think that enabled people to also treat it a bit more like a hint rather than a rule? Perhaps for future events we should have numerical 'loudness' scores for all fields, forming a gradient, with a higher score letting people be louder and party later, and actually enforce that. That way loud people can camp in loud villages, while those who need peace and quiet can camp in quiet villages. -- [[User:Q3k|Q3k]] ([[User talk:Q3k|talk]])
** I think this was sort-of implemented based on village input, but the usual event fields are just a bit too small for that to work reliably -- [[User:SK|SK]] ([[User talk:SK|talk]])
* This was both badly communicated (FAQ said "until midnight", apparently the actual rule was from 1 am?) and not usefully enforced. Arcade area right next to family village especially apparently could do whatever they wanted. This makes awesome ideas like silent disco for the "official" music stage sadly quite moot. -- [[User:SK|SK]] ([[User talk:SK|talk]])
* second-hand, but if security (i.e. the contact listed for noise complaints on the front page of this wiki!) really responded to calls about this with "don't call us unless there's an actual emergency" some rules seriously need to be re-established -- [[User:SK|SK]] ([[User talk:SK|talk]])
* at the same time small villages further into the "louder sector" (i.e. away from family/silent camping) were told off for having any music on low volume -- [[User:SK|SK]] ([[User talk:SK|talk]])
* Our village was placed in a party area. That was unfortunate. Next time I'll camp in a quiet are even if that means being far away from the village I am interested in. Geraffel adhered to the 1am quiet policy (yay!) but others didn't. They went on till after 4.30 and didn't honor complaints. -- [[User:Mosquito|Mosquito]] ([[User talk:Mosquito|talk]])

=== POC / Dect / Fieldphones ===
* I couldn't find advance information as to when the phone / DECT network would be shut off on the wiki, having such information would be useful (but I may just have been looking in the wrong place) -- [[User:Pinoaffe|Pinoaffe]] ([[User talk:Pinoaffe|talk]])
* DECT coverage was great around the whole camp area. -- [[User:Rot13|Rot13]] ([[User talk:Rot13|talk]])
* DECT self-registration worked great (have been used to it for a while now from congress). -- [[User:Rot13|Rot13]] ([[User talk:Rot13|talk]])

=== Parcel deliveries ===
* Many people that ordered things to the field were (seemingly) unaware of how parcel deliveries were supposed to work. This caused unnecessary overhead. -- [[User:Pinoaffe|Pinoaffe]] ([[User talk:Pinoaffe|talk]])
* Collaborating with C3Post may be worthwhile for a next event, though they may not want to deal with large packages. -- [[User:Pinoaffe|Pinoaffe]] ([[User talk:Pinoaffe|talk]])
** Delivering anything of real value sounds like a bad idea (on big events). Besides being way more effort than postcards, parcels (pending delivery) would require (secure-ish) storage space while not out for relivery or if the first delivery attempt failed. We'd also need extra couriers and not hand deliveries out to random passing-by hackers, which also leaks the info on the parcel (such as tracking numbers) to said random hackers. Also some postcards just got lost/didn't get delivered, which would be a real issue with parcels. -- [[User:Trilader|Trilader]] ([[User talk:Trilader|talk]])

=== Press / Media coverage ===

* Put your feedback here :)

=== Productiehuis / C3VOC ===
* MOST EXCELLENT WORK!! -- [[User:Ahu|Ahu]] ([[User talk:Ahu|talk]])
* The video-quality of the (few) talks I watched online was good, and I saw some nice fade effects. [[User:Fhp|Fhp]] ([[User talk:Fhp|talk]])
* The hard cutoff of the intro tune annoys me every time. [[User:Fhp|Fhp]] ([[User talk:Fhp|talk]])
* Kudos to the C3VOC! That was awesome! Video quality was excellent and the fact that each talk appeared in the C3 media archive only a couple of hours later impressed me very much. That is better service than many (or most?) commercial providers deliver. You people are fantastic! -- [[User:Mosquito|Mosquito]] ([[User talk:Mosquito|talk]])

=== Safety / stewards / first aid / Fire Marshalls ===

* Phone numbers or other contact information was hard to find at the beginning of the event, added to the wiki later. --[[User:Juerd|Juerd]] ([[User talk:Juerd|talk]]) 20:47, 30 July 2022 (CEST)
* There were no backup mobile phone numbers (at least none published) for reaching the safety teams in case of infrastructure outage, and they were unreachable when the network was down. --[[User:Juerd|Juerd]] ([[User talk:Juerd|talk]]) 20:47, 30 July 2022 (CEST)
* Security: Bike path was open to all, so technically anyone could get on the terrain without a ticket. Which meant at least a few unwelcome visitors. - [[User:Noor|Noor]] ([[User talk:Noor|talk]])

=== Shuttle services (train station, and luggage on site) ===

* Shuttle drop-off point on field should have been marked somewhere on the maps or wiki, during build-up. I spent forever asking around trying to find the drop-off point, only to find it at heaven. - [[User:Noor|Noor]] ([[User talk:Noor|talk]])
* Shuttle was efficient and worked well when I used it -- [[User:SK|SK]] ([[User talk:SK|talk]])
* Shuttle ticket was a bit last-minute and unclear (i.e. afaik never produced an actual "ticket", which lead to questions - and in the end was more like a donation than a strictly-required ticket) -- [[User:SK|SK]] ([[User talk:SK|talk]])

=== Supermarket ===

* The supermarket was a really valuable addition to the event, and probably saved lots of fuel and time for people. I found the prices acceptable, and the choice of products was surprisingly broad! --[[User:Juerd|Juerd]] ([[User talk:Juerd|talk]]) 20:47, 30 July 2022 (CEST)
* Supermarket was a great thing and I hope we'll have it at the next event. -- [[User:Rot13|Rot13]] ([[User talk:Rot13|talk]])
* Supermarket was wonderful, it felt like being back in civilization again and I could just zip inside to get a drink or breakfast for the next morning. - [[User:Noor|Noor]] ([[User talk:Noor|talk]])
* was very useful to have and surprisingly well-stocked (i.e. not just packaged junk food). Next time they'll know to bring less soft-drinks and more Ethernet/USB/... cables ;) -- [[User:SK|SK]] ([[User talk:SK|talk]])

=== Sysadmin / bofh ===

* Having had to deal with the crumbling of central infrastructure in other events, I really appreciated the stability of the wiki and Engelsystem before and throughout the event. -- [[User:Rot13|Rot13]] ([[User talk:Rot13|talk]])

=== Terrain ===

* The western way to quiet camping was not accessible: so narrow that you can only go one way at a time and a huge log being in the way.
* The quiet camping area (Wilson field) turned out to be quite crammed and could be bigger for the next event. I assume this was caused by the scouts taking some of that area due to the unfortunate double booking. -- [[User:Rot13|Rot13]] ([[User talk:Rot13|talk]])

=== Ticket and Entrance ===

* Put your feedback here :)

=== Toilets / Showers ===

* The maintenance crew for the toilets/showers did a great job, IMHO, those facilities where usually in very good shape. [[User:Alxndr|Alxndr]] ([[User talk:Alxndr|talk]])
* Easily the best showers of any hacker camp I've been to. -- [[User:Q3k|Q3k]] ([[User talk:Q3k|talk]])
* There should have been showers closer to the quiet camping area. -- [[User:Rot13|Rot13]] ([[User talk:Rot13|talk]])

=== Villages ===

* Put your feedback here :)

=== Village tent/furniture rental (Moebelhaus) ===

* Our tent ended up being rotated by pi/2 compared to the map. This ended up totally throwing off what we were planning. We managed regardless, but it'd be great if in the future these maps would actually reflect reality :). -- [[User:Q3k|Q3k]] ([[User talk:Q3k|talk]])
* Our tent was leaking, especially on the connector between modules. -- [[User:Q3k|Q3k]] ([[User talk:Q3k|talk]])

=== Visitors ===

* Most visitors were excellent, as always. But in the next few years when thinking of the next event, we should probably talk about people who I guess must be new to this community, that are incredibly lax with the photo/filming policy, and behave like consumers instead of participants. --[[User:Juerd|Juerd]] ([[User talk:Juerd|talk]]) 20:49, 30 July 2022 (CEST)

=== Volunteering / Angels ===

* Providing the angels with reusable water bottles was a very good idea. [[User:Alxndr|Alxndr]] ([[User talk:Alxndr|talk]])
** Agreed -- [[User:Rot13|Rot13]] ([[User talk:Rot13|talk]])
** +1 - I did use it a lot more than I expected at first, which was probably quite healthy to do -- [[User:SK|SK]] ([[User talk:SK|talk]])

==== Volunteering ====

* Put your feedback here :)

==== Angel Food ====

* My only complaint about Mecklenb[öoøu]rg(er)? is that I still don't know how to spell their name. The food is wonderful, the people are great too! --[[User:Juerd|Juerd]] ([[User talk:Juerd|talk]]) 20:51, 30 July 2022 (CEST)
* The food was great, as always :) -- [[User:Pinoaffe|Pinoaffe]] ([[User talk:Pinoaffe|talk]])
* The angel food was incredible. One of the highlights of this event. -- [[User:Rot13|Rot13]] ([[User talk:Rot13|talk]])
* Angel food was mostly great, except for the dinner on day 0 and some dishes otherwise. I'd also have appreciated some sort of meat at least every other day. - [[User:Noor|Noor]] ([[User talk:Noor|talk]])
* As always very good. Only complaint lack of coffee mugs -- [[User:SK|SK]] ([[User talk:SK|talk]])
* The Angel food was to die for (sorry, couldn't resist), big thanks to the Mecklenb[öoøu]rg(er) crew for that. Didn't miss a meat option at all. -- [[User:Dany|Dany]] ([[User talk:Dany|talk]])

==== Angel desk and Angel system ====

* I'd really like it if the Engelsystem alert emails contained the actual update in the email content. I'd get spammed with email notifications and if I wanted to actually read the update, I'd have to click through and login to the Engelsystem. I just ended up leaving most of those updates unread throughout the day. - [[User:Noor|Noor]] ([[User talk:Noor|talk]])

==== Heaven ====

* I assume this was just some miscommunication etc, but the outdoor seating was removed too early, esp given covid situation. Otherwise all good. -- [[User:SK|SK]] ([[User talk:SK|talk]])

=== Warehouse ===

* Put your feedback here :)

=== Waste / garbage / trash ===

* Slightly sad that trash was just split into “glass” and “everything else”. It'd be nice if we could at least recycle cardboard/paper! -- [[User:Q3k|Q3k]] ([[User talk:Q3k|talk]])
** Agreed. Throwing everything into the "Other Waste" containers felt wrong. I understand this was on the waste company dropping the ball. Let's make sure this won't happen at the next event. -- [[User:Rot13|Rot13]] ([[User talk:Rot13|talk]])
* an awful lot of mate etc bottles ended up in glass trash I think - the later-deployed bottle collection crates helped with that -- [[User:SK|SK]] ([[User talk:SK|talk]])

Please post these on the [[memories]] page.

== How to post feedback ==

First of all, let's talk about negativity bias a bit. Please make sure to post a fair balance between positive and negative feedback. Feedback about what went wrong is important, but feedback about what went right is even more important. Do share your negativity, but please be kind and remember we're a bunch of volunteers. To thrive and continue to organize these events, we need a certain amount of positivity, preferably a list of the very specific things you loved and would like to experience again!

<nowiki>Please add your feedback below. Use * to add a bullet point, *: to add an indented bullet point (adding to or replying to comment above), and -- ~~~ to sign your name. </nowiki>

Example:

== Topics ==

=== General / overall ===

* So happy about the progressive pride and Antifa flag on the tower
* Awesome event again, thanks to everyone who did their part to making it such -- [[User:SK|SK]] ([[User talk:SK|talk]])
* It was fantastic and I am already stoked for the next one! -- [[User:Mosquito|Mosquito]] ([[User talk:Mosquito|talk]])

=== Arrival / departure / parking / train shuttle / luggage shuttle ===

* I was surprised twice that empty places in the field were apparently claimed. It was not clear to me that people had staked out places already on the wiki. This would seem to me one of The Most Important Things To Tell People: "whatever is on the wiki wins". Or perhaps abolish that, also fine by me, but in any case be very clear about it. I could also do with an AR app or so that shows me what people claimed :-) -- [[User:Ahu|Ahu]] ([[User talk:Ahu|talk]])

* Last day of the event felt kinda "lost" as people were beginning to tear things down from early on in the day well before the closing event. Was bit of a weird mood/feeling. -- [[User:Rot13|Rot13]] ([[User talk:Rot13|talk]])

=== Badge ===

* Very well-made and polished badge, really surprised me with the effort put into it and its versatility! [[User:Vurpo|Vurpo]] ([[User talk:Vurpo|talk]]) 21:07, 30 July 2022 (CEST)
* The badge is really nice, but the price of MCH admission is already hindering people we'd like to reach. Perhaps do consider if we really need it. -- [[User:Ahu|Ahu]] ([[User talk:Ahu|talk]])
* Awesome badge, I had a lot of fun tinkering with it during camp and always received helpful advice in the IRC channel. Please keep this project going! [[User:Alxndr|Alxndr]] ([[User talk:Alxndr|talk]])

=== Bars and food court ===

* The capacity of the food-stands was quite low, which resulted in long waiting times. Not good with hungry kids. [[User:Fhp|Fhp]] ([[User talk:Fhp|talk]])
* Agree with above: low capacity for the commercial food stands. They also didn't seem to grasp the concept of 'lunch'. I expected them to be up and running around 13.00, but most of them weren't, resulting in even longer lines at the places that were open earlier. -- [[User:Dany|Dany]] ([[User talk:Dany|talk]])
* The food stands I've visited (Wok, Fries) had poor in-person advertising of everything that they were actually selling and how much it cost. -- [[User:Rot13|Rot13]] ([[User talk:Rot13|talk]])
=== Buildup and teardown ===

* As one of the persons who collected what felt like a kilometre of Flatterband at teardown, and removed a pile of pegs it was attached to, I would like to thank those buildup angels who didn't sink the pegs below ground level. You made my job a lot easier! :) [[User:Alxndr|Alxndr]] ([[User talk:Alxndr|talk]])

=== COVID19 precautions ===

* Thanks for caring about ventilation. [https://grafana.mch2022.org/d/q9gZutJ7z/mch2022?orgId=1&viewPanel=30&from=1658492800367&to=1658853839068 CO2 meters] and open sides weren't in place during the opening talk, but this was fixed quickly after and I heard the security team kept an eye on the graphs. --[[User:Juerd|Juerd]] ([[User talk:Juerd|talk]]) 20:43, 30 July 2022 (CEST)
* I liked the availability of masks and self tests for those who forgot to bring their own. I've heard about a few dozen people who got infected, but there were probably more. Thanks to the rapid tests and the heroes who chose to isolate, we may have averted a disastrous superspreading event. --[[User:Juerd|Juerd]] ([[User talk:Juerd|talk]]) 22:02, 30 July 2022 (CEST)
** Very much appreciated the easy availability of masks and rapid tests. -- [[User:Rot13|Rot13]] ([[User talk:Rot13|talk]])
* It would have been good to switch from recommended to required mask wearing, at least indoors, once it became clear that "personal responsibility" wasn't working out (even in this community, what a disappointment). [[User:Alxndr|Alxndr]] ([[User talk:Alxndr|talk]])
** Agreeing on all points. Was also a bit disappointed. -- [[User:Rot13|Rot13]] ([[User talk:Rot13|talk]])
* It was good to request/require mask wearing in the food queue in Heaven. It would have been even better to do it from the very beginning. [[User:Moem|Moem]] ([[User talk:Moem|talk]]) 09:20, 31 July 2022 (CEST)

=== Cohesion ===

* Put your feedback here :)

=== Content / talks / heralds / speakerdesk / AV / recordings ===

* In the end it worked pretty well, but perhaps do ponder having some "known good" presenter laptops/devices available. This has worked very well for other conferences. I used a 200 euro Chromebook with a throwaway google account. -- [[User:Ahu|Ahu]] ([[User talk:Ahu|talk]])
* This is a matter of taste - if you light up the speakers real well, the audience can enjoy a well lighted speaker. But the speaker then often can't see the audience. And during my talks, I love to actually see the audience. This was better in 2017 (at least in Abacus and Battery). -- [[User:Ahu|Ahu]] ([[User talk:Ahu|talk]])
* The speaker desk and the room to work is absolutely ACE. -- [[User:Ahu|Ahu]] ([[User talk:Ahu|talk]])

=== Decoration / design ===

* Well done all around -- [[User:SK|SK]] ([[User talk:SK|talk]]) 01:07, 31 July 2022 (CEST)
* The design was so colorful and well thought out, it gave team Deco a lot to work with. Great job! [[User:Moem|Moem]] ([[User talk:Moem|talk]]) 09:22, 31 July 2022 (CEST)

=== Family / kids ===

* Put your feedback here :)

=== Finance / coins / payments ===

* Payment by card worked mostly well, other than the supermarket not accepting international cards. My main issue was that the payment system was not well enough explained before the actual event! The blog post and wiki page were pretty long and still left me confused about what the actual payment system on the field was going to end up being. Even a simple "TL;DR we will use regular international payment cards with chip/contactless" would have helped me. [[User:Vurpo|Vurpo]] ([[User talk:Vurpo|talk]]) 21:04, 30 July 2022 (CEST)
* I asked at several bars and the food court where I could get the prepaid card for the MCH payment system, but nobody knew, so I ended up using my regular payment card. [[User:Alxndr|Alxndr]] ([[User talk:Alxndr|talk]]
** The MCH payment system only was operational from about day 3. - [[User:Noor|Noor]]
* I liked the idea of the cashless QR-code, especially the later upgrade to a "hard card" rather than just a stub of thermal paper. Avoids using the big payment providers and frees one of having to carry around cash. However I would've loved seeing more universal acceptance around the event (for example at the supermarket). -- [[User:Rot13|Rot13]] ([[User talk:Rot13|talk]])

=== Harbour / Ferry ===

* Loved the ferry service not as much as a shuttle to the other side of the water way, but as a way to enjoy some quiet time and a light breeze to (mentally) recharge away from the event. -- [[User:Rot13|Rot13]] ([[User talk:Rot13|talk]])

=== Information / infodesk / wiki ===

* The infodesk should've been open for longer/as long as possible. (background: I've sat on the NOC helpdesk a bunch of times after the last infodesk angles were gone and dealt with quite a few people that were originally looking for the helpdesk; also being able to respond to infodesk calls for longer). -- [[User:Rot13|Rot13]] ([[User talk:Rot13|talk]])

=== Lounges ===

* Silent lounge was very well done. Nicely decorated and people behaving very considerate (i.e. really tried to be silent). No wonder that it was popular to the point where it could've used more pillows. I was worried that people would start camping inside the lounge (similar things happen at congress for example), but that didn't turn out to be true. I've seen plenty of people taking a nap away from the noise of the event, but thankfully nobody started living inside the lounge. -- [[User:Rot13|Rot13]] ([[User talk:Rot13|talk]])
* Besides the silent lounge, I wish there were more places for people, especially for those without a village, to relax in the shade near an Ethernet port and power socket. In the harbour there was the wood table with tent roof and the bar with a couple of seats, but both away from power sockets. Besides that a few deckchairs. Otherwise mostly hard wooden benches near the food court without shade (and power sockets). -- [[User:Rot13|Rot13]] ([[User talk:Rot13|talk]])
** +1 agreed, a few dedicated shaded outdoor spots would've been nice -- [[User:SK|SK]] ([[User talk:SK|talk]])
** +1 I was going to write the same. Seating on the western part of the food court was hardly used because there was no shadow. Everyone was cramped beneath the roof tent in front of the east bar. On previous events there were more public spaces with roofing, sofas, bean bags, power and network. Nice place with hammocks at the speaker desk but also now shadow. Roof tents would also provide shelter in case of rain (as experienced on previous camps).

=== Merchandise ===

* The designs look great, I'm a fan of the asymmetry and the patterned sleeves. Not being able to go a size up or down from what you ordered online was kind of disappointing. Not a major issue for myself but I know of several people who were sad about this. The [[merch exchange]] is not a great solution, but better than nothing. --[[User:Juerd|Juerd]] ([[User talk:Juerd|talk]]) 20:54, 30 July 2022 (CEST)
* Merch was great: Awesome design and high quality. Preodering saved me from having to stay in a (humongous) line in the heat. -- [[User:Rot13|Rot13]] ([[User talk:Rot13|talk]])
* I absolutely love the hexagonal patterns and diagrams, but the amount of purple/pink was enough to keep me from buying more than a hat (that, and sizes being too big for me). - [[User:Noor|Noor]] ([[User talk:Noor|talk]])
* Nice merch, despite at first not being a fan of the design. Option to preorder is great. -- [[User:SK|SK]] ([[User talk:SK|talk]])

=== Miscellaneous ===

* Swan family was pretty relaxed with all the people and activity, camping out in the middle of the terrain. - [[User:Noor|Noor]] ([[User talk:Noor|talk]]

=== Music/laser stage / silent disco / Symphony of Fire ===

* Music stage with the flamethrowers, and Symphony of Fire were awesome. - [[User:Noor|Noor]] ([[User talk:Noor|talk]])
* Very well done. Silent disco was a neat solution to the inherent noise conflicts. What exactly is going on could have been a bit more detailed in the schedule, some people were sad they missed interesting things because they didn't realize who was playing. -- [[User:SK|SK]] ([[User talk:SK|talk]])
* For me, the music stage did not really add anything that I would miss if it dit not happen again on a next event. Symphony of Fire was indeed awesome, I wonder if they could have played on a raised podium so more people could have seen what was happening. [[User:Moem|Moem]] ([[User talk:Moem|talk]]) 09:27, 31 July 2022 (CEST)

=== NOC / Network ===

* My SFP+ module got to stay in a datenklo. A++++ would camp again. -- [[User:Q3k|Q3k]] ([[User talk:Q3k|talk]])
* Datenklos were sorely missing some CYBER(tm) reflective foil wrapping -- [[User:Rot13|Rot13]] ([[User talk:Rot13|talk]])

=== Other music/noise (outside the official party area) ===

* Bit torn on this one. It is a party event, but there was way too much loud music post 2 AM. Some of us do need sleep. I know, weak etc. I don't recall seeing a clear policy on what is acceptable, might be behind people feeling ok cranking up the volume after midnight. -- [[User:Ahu|Ahu]] ([[User talk:Ahu|talk]])
* The Retro Arcade area was an absolute nuisance at night. They were blasting the neighbouring villages with shitty music and drunken yelling until 2 or 3 am pretty much every day. I can think of several words for this kind of behaviour, and none of them rhyme with "excellent". [[User:Alxndr|Alxndr]] ([[User talk:Alxndr|talk]])
* It seems like while the official policy was 'no noise after 1AM', it wasn't actively enforced for most cases - and I think that enabled people to also treat it a bit more like a hint rather than a rule? Perhaps for future events we should have numerical 'loudness' scores for all fields, forming a gradient, with a higher score letting people be louder and party later, and actually enforce that. That way loud people can camp in loud villages, while those who need peace and quiet can camp in quiet villages. -- [[User:Q3k|Q3k]] ([[User talk:Q3k|talk]])
** I think this was sort-of implemented based on village input, but the usual event fields are just a bit too small for that to work reliably -- [[User:SK|SK]] ([[User talk:SK|talk]])
* This was both badly communicated (FAQ said "until midnight", apparently the actual rule was from 1 am?) and not usefully enforced. Arcade area right next to family village especially apparently could do whatever they wanted. This makes awesome ideas like silent disco for the "official" music stage sadly quite moot. -- [[User:SK|SK]] ([[User talk:SK|talk]])
* second-hand, but if security (i.e. the contact listed for noise complaints on the front page of this wiki!) really responded to calls about this with "don't call us unless there's an actual emergency" some rules seriously need to be re-established -- [[User:SK|SK]] ([[User talk:SK|talk]])
* at the same time small villages further into the "louder sector" (i.e. away from family/silent camping) were told off for having any music on low volume -- [[User:SK|SK]] ([[User talk:SK|talk]])
* Our village was placed in a party area. That was unfortunate. Next time I'll camp in a quiet are even if that means being far away from the village I am interested in. Geraffel adhered to the 1am quiet policy (yay!) but others didn't. They went on till after 4.30 and didn't honor complaints. -- [[User:Mosquito|Mosquito]] ([[User talk:Mosquito|talk]])

=== POC / Dect / Fieldphones ===
* I couldn't find advance information as to when the phone / DECT network would be shut off on the wiki, having such information would be useful (but I may just have been looking in the wrong place) -- [[User:Pinoaffe|Pinoaffe]] ([[User talk:Pinoaffe|talk]])
* DECT coverage was great around the whole camp area. -- [[User:Rot13|Rot13]] ([[User talk:Rot13|talk]])
* DECT self-registration worked great (have been used to it for a while now from congress). -- [[User:Rot13|Rot13]] ([[User talk:Rot13|talk]])

=== Parcel deliveries ===
* Many people that ordered things to the field were (seemingly) unaware of how parcel deliveries were supposed to work. This caused unnecessary overhead. -- [[User:Pinoaffe|Pinoaffe]] ([[User talk:Pinoaffe|talk]])
* Collaborating with C3Post may be worthwhile for a next event, though they may not want to deal with large packages. -- [[User:Pinoaffe|Pinoaffe]] ([[User talk:Pinoaffe|talk]])
** Delivering anything of real value sounds like a bad idea (on big events). Besides being way more effort than postcards, parcels (pending delivery) would require (secure-ish) storage space while not out for relivery or if the first delivery attempt failed. We'd also need extra couriers and not hand deliveries out to random passing-by hackers, which also leaks the info on the parcel (such as tracking numbers) to said random hackers. Also some postcards just got lost/didn't get delivered, which would be a real issue with parcels. -- [[User:Trilader|Trilader]] ([[User talk:Trilader|talk]])

=== Press / Media coverage ===

* Put your feedback here :)

=== Productiehuis / C3VOC ===
* MOST EXCELLENT WORK!! -- [[User:Ahu|Ahu]] ([[User talk:Ahu|talk]])
* The video-quality of the (few) talks I watched online was good, and I saw some nice fade effects. [[User:Fhp|Fhp]] ([[User talk:Fhp|talk]])
* The hard cutoff of the intro tune annoys me every time. [[User:Fhp|Fhp]] ([[User talk:Fhp|talk]])

=== Projectleiding ===

=== ROC ===

=== Safety / stewards / first aid / Fire Marshalls ===

* Phone numbers or other contact information was hard to find at the beginning of the event, added to the wiki later. --[[User:Juerd|Juerd]] ([[User talk:Juerd|talk]]) 20:47, 30 July 2022 (CEST)
* There were no backup mobile phone numbers (at least none published) for reaching the safety teams in case of infrastructure outage, and they were unreachable when the network was down. --[[User:Juerd|Juerd]] ([[User talk:Juerd|talk]]) 20:47, 30 July 2022 (CEST)
* Security: Bike path was open to all, so technically anyone could get on the terrain without a ticket. Which meant at least a few unwelcome visitors. - [[User:Noor|Noor]] ([[User talk:Noor|talk]])

=== Shuttle services (train station, and luggage on site) ===

* Shuttle drop-off point on field should have been marked somewhere on the maps or wiki, during build-up. I spent forever asking around trying to find the drop-off point, only to find it at heaven. - [[User:Noor|Noor]] ([[User talk:Noor|talk]])
* Shuttle was efficient and worked well when I used it -- [[User:SK|SK]] ([[User talk:SK|talk]])
* Shuttle ticket was a bit last-minute and unclear (i.e. afaik never produced an actual "ticket", which lead to questions - and in the end was more like a donation than a strictly-required ticket) -- [[User:SK|SK]] ([[User talk:SK|talk]])

=== Supermarket ===

* The supermarket was a really valuable addition to the event, and probably saved lots of fuel and time for people. I found the prices acceptable, and the choice of products was surprisingly broad! --[[User:Juerd|Juerd]] ([[User talk:Juerd|talk]]) 20:47, 30 July 2022 (CEST)
* Supermarket was a great thing and I hope we'll have it at the next event. -- [[User:Rot13|Rot13]] ([[User talk:Rot13|talk]])
* Supermarket was wonderful, it felt like being back in civilization again and I could just zip inside to get a drink or breakfast for the next morning. - [[User:Noor|Noor]] ([[User talk:Noor|talk]])
* was very useful to have and surprisingly well-stocked (i.e. not just packaged junk food). Next time they'll know to bring less soft-drinks and more Ethernet/USB/... cables ;) -- [[User:SK|SK]] ([[User talk:SK|talk]])

=== Sysadmin / bofh ===

* Having had to deal with the crumbling of central infrastructure in other events, I really appreciated the stability of the wiki and Engelsystem before and throughout the event. -- [[User:Rot13|Rot13]] ([[User talk:Rot13|talk]])

=== Terrain ===

* The western way to quiet camping was not accessible: so narrow that you can only go one way at a time and a huge log being in the way.
* The quiet camping area (Wilson field) turned out to be quite crammed and could be bigger for the next event. I assume this was caused by the scouts taking some of that area due to the unfortunate double booking. -- [[User:Rot13|Rot13]] ([[User talk:Rot13|talk]])

=== Toilets / Showers ===

* The maintenance crew for the toilets/showers did a great job, IMHO, those facilities where usually in very good shape. [[User:Alxndr|Alxndr]] ([[User talk:Alxndr|talk]])
* Easily the best showers of any hacker camp I've been to. -- [[User:Q3k|Q3k]] ([[User talk:Q3k|talk]])
* There should have been showers closer to the quiet camping area. -- [[User:Rot13|Rot13]] ([[User talk:Rot13|talk]])

=== Villages ===

* Put your feedback here :)

=== Village tent/furniture rental (Moebelhaus) ===

* Our tent ended up being rotated by pi/2 compared to the map. This ended up totally throwing off what we were planning. We managed regardless, but it'd be great if in the future these maps would actually reflect reality :). -- [[User:Q3k|Q3k]] ([[User talk:Q3k|talk]])
* Our tent was leaking, especially on the connector between modules. -- [[User:Q3k|Q3k]] ([[User talk:Q3k|talk]])

=== Visitors ===

* Most visitors were excellent, as always. But in the next few years when thinking of the next event, we should probably talk about people who I guess must be new to this community, that are incredibly lax with the photo/filming policy, and behave like consumers instead of participants. --[[User:Juerd|Juerd]] ([[User talk:Juerd|talk]]) 20:49, 30 July 2022 (CEST)

=== Volunteering / Angels ===

* Providing the angels with reusable water bottles was a very good idea. [[User:Alxndr|Alxndr]] ([[User talk:Alxndr|talk]])
** Agreed -- [[User:Rot13|Rot13]] ([[User talk:Rot13|talk]])
** +1 - I did use it a lot more than I expected at first, which was probably quite healthy to do -- [[User:SK|SK]] ([[User talk:SK|talk]])

==== Volunteering ====

* Put your feedback here :)

==== Angel Food ====

* My only complaint about Mecklenb[öoøu]rg(er)? is that I still don't know how to spell their name. The food is wonderful, the people are great too! --[[User:Juerd|Juerd]] ([[User talk:Juerd|talk]]) 20:51, 30 July 2022 (CEST)
* The food was great, as always :) -- [[User:Pinoaffe|Pinoaffe]] ([[User talk:Pinoaffe|talk]])
* The angel food was incredible. One of the highlights of this event. -- [[User:Rot13|Rot13]] ([[User talk:Rot13|talk]])
* Angel food was mostly great, except for the dinner on day 0 and some dishes otherwise. I'd also have appreciated some sort of meat at least every other day. - [[User:Noor|Noor]] ([[User talk:Noor|talk]])
* As always very good. Only complaint lack of coffee mugs -- [[User:SK|SK]] ([[User talk:SK|talk]])
* The Angel food was to die for (sorry, couldn't resist), big thanks to the Mecklenb[öoøu]rg(er) crew for that. Didn't miss a meat option at all. -- [[User:Dany|Dany]] ([[User talk:Dany|talk]])

==== Angel desk and Angel system ====

* I'd really like it if the Engelsystem alert emails contained the actual update in the email content. I'd get spammed with email notifications and if I wanted to actually read the update, I'd have to click through and login to the Engelsystem. I just ended up leaving most of those updates unread throughout the day. - [[User:Noor|Noor]] ([[User talk:Noor|talk]])

==== Heaven ====

* I assume this was just some miscommunication etc, but the outdoor seating was removed too early, esp given covid situation. Otherwise all good. -- [[User:SK|SK]] ([[User talk:SK|talk]])

=== Warehouse ===

* Put your feedback here :)

=== Waste / garbage / trash ===

* Slightly sad that trash was just split into “glass” and “everything else”. It'd be nice if we could at least recycle cardboard/paper! -- [[User:Q3k|Q3k]] ([[User talk:Q3k|talk]])
** Agreed. Throwing everything into the "Other Waste" containers felt wrong. I understand this was on the waste company dropping the ball. Let's make sure this won't happen at the next event. -- [[User:Rot13|Rot13]] ([[User talk:Rot13|talk]])
* an awful lot of mate etc bottles ended up in glass trash I think - the later-deployed bottle collection crates helped with that -- [[User:SK|SK]] ([[User talk:SK|talk]])
