 Place and Time :
 ________________


 - The Hamar olympic hall (or the Vikingship) was built for the 1994 winter 
   olympics, with 12000 square meters floor space. Since all these sports 
   activities are over, we can use it for something a bit more meaningful.

 - At TG96 we had over 2500 attendants, and we had absolute no problem to get
   a seat to every person there !


 To get there :
 ______________

 - If you drive from Oslo, you will see the Vikingship right before you
   enter "Hamar". From here, just follow the signs.

 - If you go by train, step out at the Vikingship station. If you cannot see 
   the party-place from there... please call!

 - If you come by submarine, please check that the sub is not submerged when
   you leave the boat. (and do congratulate the captain from me, ->
   the Vikingship is close to a lake, not an ocean!)

 Time
 ____


 - This year will we open at 10:00 at wednesday 26th March, and close the 
   hall at 16:00 sunday the 30th March. If you should arrive earlier, please
   contact us in advance for arrangements.

 Entrance        
 ________

  Note : at TG96 we let in aliens go for free, but this year have have taken
  the decision that aliens will have to pay double. "ID4" really shook us up..

  Girls are still let in for free, as are non-europeans who show a valid 
  passport all other carbon based lifeforms will have to pay the fee of
  300,- NOK or appx. US $50,-



  Pre-registration can be ordered via "billett-service" at your local
  Norwegian post-office. Foreigns please contact us for special arrangements.



  Our clever scheme to sell warm winter clothes at double prices failed last 
  year, so this year we will let you all into a warm waiting area. Also, we
  have designed a brand new registration system which will crash in an even
  more spectacular way than the TG96 system :)

 Party - Network
 _______________


  At TG96 we set a new world standard for party networking. At TG97 we will 
  provide at least 1500 connections, 70 segments at 10MBits and a 155MBit ATM
  backbone. 

  High quality network adapters will be sold at bargain prices, but details
  are still unclear on this one.

  Our experienced network crew have been scrambled once again and will work 
  around the clock to get you connected...
  We will take this opportunity to thank everyone who attended TG96 and gave
  us the necessary inspiration to do it again once more.  (more and more..)





Very special thanks to:

  - The local fire-departement for helping
    us in every possible way.

  - The patient crew from ABB, which 
    delivered a power-down-free power
    supply.

  - Masters for helping us sort out 
    technical problems with 150 net cards.

  - All the TG96 sponsors (no free ads
    here guys, sorry :)

  - All voluntary crew members who did the
    impossible day after day for nothing
    else than the experience...
