| Once you have a handle, you can sign up for raids at our web application, which can be found at [http://www.iceshadow.com/bsc/oob/index.php?page=calendar http://www.iceshadow.com/bsc/oob/index.php?page=calendar]. You must first create a character there, and then if you are approved by an officer (by posting in the Applications forum) you will be able to sign up for raids. | | Once you have a handle, you can sign up for raids at our web application, which can be found at [http://www.iceshadow.com/bsc/oob/index.php?page=calendar http://www.iceshadow.com/bsc/oob/index.php?page=calendar].

− | The calendar system will classify people as either full signups, substitutes, or replacements. One can choose at the time of signup whether it should be a full signup or a replacement signup; substitutes will begin to be listed if the full signups are past capacity. Feel free to still sign up if the raid is full, and it will either sort you into an available class spot as a full signup or list you as a substitute.
| |

| |
− | Raid signups can be cancelled freely up until 30 minutes before the raid starts; after that point, you must notify the raid leader to let them know you will be absent.
| |

| |
− | Substitutes and full signups are both expected to be online and ready to go at the start of the raid. Replacements are NOT required to be on at the start of the raid; they are essentially tentative spots, and thus no attendance is required from them. Replacements can be moved from replacements up to full signups at their own discretion using the calendar system until 24 hours before the raid; past that point, the only way to move from replacement to full signup is to cancel your signup and re-sign as a full signup. If you move up from replacement to full using the button to do it more than 24 hours before the raid, you will keep your signup time. Cancelling and resigning will cause you to be regarded as signing up at the new time.

| |
− | If we are short full signups, or if we have absentees from full signups, we will first pull from the Substitutes queue and then the Replacement queue.
| |
− |
| |
− | The calendar sorts people automatically when they sign up as full signups, first to fill class balance, and second by signup time. So, if you are not one of the first few people of your class to sign up, you may be initially regarded as a full signup and later be bumped to a substitute if more people in an underrepresented class sign up.
| |
− |
| |
− | If you intend to raid with a specific character, sign up with that character. The raid leader may allow, at his discretion, people to change to a different character, but it will typically only be allowed if the second character is from an underrepresented class and if he will be switching to a character with the same raid role (DPS, Tanking, Healing). It is NOT permissible to sign up from an underrepresented class with the intent of switching to a class that is "full" in order to secure a signup spot with the "full" class.
