Can someone please explain to me how to report a scout arrival for someone other than myself? I know how to do it for myself but a friend of mine has given me permission to report for him and I can't figure out how to do it. Thanks.

The person who has the colony will likely need to register their name and colony location on the PMCA website as you originally did with your colony location, and then use that link to report the scout arrival date (or you could register all their info on their behalf if they are not handy with the internet). Alternatively, you could call the PMCA office directly and staff could submit the report (likely as anonymous) on their end and add the location mark to the map.

Yah, the person isn't an internet person and asked me to share the info. Thanks!

you can go through your login, use their address as the colony address and then use their name as the alternate name for the report.
