Registering for a CCO
Signing up for a CCO
You can register for a CCO as an individual or as a community. If you are an individual, slots are first come, first serve. If you are a community, you can reserve up to a max of one infantry squad. The squad size will be between 10-14 players and you are expected to fill it entirely.
Keep in mind that sign ups are done in a "rolling" manner with leaders and medics first, followed by specialties, then infantry.
If you are an individual:
- Find the CCO in https://discord.com/channels/237991125523103747/1047268038623363102
- Go to the provided slot list link
- Choose a role that is not reserved
- Go to the CCO role request channel in discord and request permissions to be apart of briefings
If you are a community leader:
- Wait until rosters are announced in the events channel.
- Respond to the announcement in the same channel with:
- "I'd like to reserve <squad name> on <side name> for <community name>."
- A CCO admin will respond to your request with a confirmation or denial.
- Once done, have your members post in the respective CCO role request channel to be added to their side channels and the roster.
If you are a member of an oriented community:
- Choose a reserved role on slot list
- Post in the CCO role request channel to be given side permissions
If your community has reserved a squad, coordinate with them to ensure you sign up for the correct slot.
FAQ
Can I sign up someone else to take part in the CCO?
No you cannot. Everyone must sign themselves up and will be granted access to their side-specific channel(s).
I can't be there when the session begins. Should I still sign-up?
The sign-up sheet is for commanders to get an idea of what they will have available at mission start. If you'd still like to play, you will have to fill-in as a reinforcement slot. Pay attention to #reinforcements channel that is visible after mission start and get ready to join in.
Is my slot a specialty?
A specialty is any slot that has a dedicated role and/or equipment assigned to it that isn't infantry. Anything with a magnified optic is also classified as a specialty. Examples of specialties:
- Sniper/Marksman
- Any role in a tank, IFV, APC
- Artillery/Mortar teams
- Any role in a flying vehicle
Is my slot a leader?
Does it have leader in the name? Yes? Then you're a leader.
My sign up post has a red "X" under it. Why?
Sign ups have specific times that you can select roles. IE, leaders and medics will be signed up for first, then specialties, then infantry. If you sign up for infantry during leader and medic sign up, it'll be denied. Alternatively, the slot may already be taken or you may have tried to edit your original message. This isn't allowed to prevent slot stealing.
Why are sign-ups done this way?
In short, there's a lot of planning involved in a CCO. We have to make sure all community members from various communities have that communication medium through their respective side discord channels. We also want to make sure communities are together during the CCO so we allow community representatives to reserve squads ahead of schedule.
Can an entire side be reserved?
No. No matter what, at least one squad will remain public for anyone to sign up on per side.
Can I reserve a higher leadership position like first sergeant or platoon leader?
Yes. To do so, DM the commander of the side directly and clear it with them. They will then inform the CCO admin to add you to the roster.
