All right, some ground rules on the immersion time, as I see it.
1) Yes, we’re keeping the time as it deliberately includes dinner. As meals are a great social time and gives us something to do as a group, it helps take some of the stress off trying to “be” our persona by letting us focus on other tasks and let the immersion happen.
2) I highly encourage people, especially those who haven’t been able to make a ton of workshops, to attend the full time. We’ve done a lot of character work this past workshop season and I think we’ll all benefit by putting it to the test without the public present.
3) Once we change, there will be NO anachronisms in the camp by any of the guild. Thus, if it’s modern, it must be hidden and not seen in the camp until 8pm. Hence, immersion! 
4) if you cannot make the full time, you need to enter and/or leave camp IN PERIOD. Thus, you can’t go into a tent, change into modern clothes, and walk back out through all of us trying to be in 1528. Carry clothes off the the flushies in a period sack, leave them in your car or the green room, but please don’t wear them in camp.
5) In period also refers to speech and things we talk about. to paraphrase your mother, if you don’t have something period to say, don’t say anything at all.
6) DO plan to play games, work on period projects, tell some of the stories we’ve talked about and mentioned above, help cook and clean up, possibly drill, etc. This is still to have fun with the end benefit of reinforcing what we’ve learned.
7) Folks who can play this game with us are welcome to attend, upon approval of the Hauptmann. Basically, they need to be in period, in proper clothing, and accept the year as 1528. They don’t have to be German. They also don’t have to be joining us for the run *cough*Ciara*cough*
