Editing Scout Leading Guide (section)

==The Event Starts==

You have to wait for the server to start your scout event.

You have until the time Dexter's head appears, with an audible prompt<ref>Voiced by player [[JD Basher]]</ref>, to make any changes to the scout, or 'pull it back' by going to the web-page with your scout squad, and using the ''Stop Scouting Outside Town'' button. You may want to do this if someone asks to join the scout that didn't do it before you selected to scout outside town.  They cannot join until you stop the scout.  After they join and signify they are ready, you can then begin the process to Start the Scout again.

After Dexter's head appears you cannot stop the scout. If anyone wishes to join they will not be able to. The best way to tell them they cannot join is to say the server already started. This is better than just saying no.

There will be a box that pops up in a few minutes to allow you to play the scout event.  You can close this box but to then play the event you will have to select the Live Events tab in the center of the lobby and pick your event.

When the event starts nobody awaits that the leader lays down the tactic so there's no problem to ask for a plan. Most experienced players know what to do, anyway. Also check the enemies setup in the event window. Pickups often mean Rocket launchers and they can hurt. Prime targets!
