I am still not sure whether I really like Sol Cesto or not. Thanks Epic for giving it a way for free, but as I said I am not sure, whether I really like the game play or whether I am just a "victim" of the excellent gamifcation.

Today I learned (out of a newsletter) 💡 HR tip | Is an employee entitled to pay during pre-trial detention? 1/2 🧶

14 Aug

Generally, no: If an employee is held in pre-trial detention and is therefore unable to work, they will normally not be entitled to wages. The general principle is “no work, no pay.” 😅 2/2 🧶

How does ist work with the gamescom tickets/ passes this year? It seems a bit complicated as old traditions seem to be gone and other things changed as well. Like devcom being "gamescom dev" now. Let´s take a look on the business side of tickets as far as I got it 👀 🧶 1/4

View full thread

The cheapest option to be able to visit all venues is a gamescom Business 5 Days basic for 232.50 € which gives you access to gamescom dev (but not for the talks - only expo floor and side events) and the rest of gamescom. This gives you a Monday -> Friday experience! I hope this helps 🧶4/4

Bonus answer: Exhibitor pass allows access from - I actually have no fckn clue when people start to setup their booth - to Sunday but I guess from Sunday -> Sunday it should be easily possible to access all halls, but it does NOT include gamescom dev (in the Confex building). 5/4 🧶

The exhibitor pass is still the exhibitor pass 🪪 ("Ausstellerausweis") The trade visitor ticket is now gamescom Business 1 Day or 3 Days ("Fachbesucherticket") and gives you access to the gamescom business center Wednesday -> Friday 🧶 2/4

All gamescom Business 5 Days passes give you access to gamescom dev(!) on Monday and Tuesday as well as rest of gamescom (including business center) from Wednesay -> Friday. 🧶 3/4
