Tutorial: How to Register

'''Unlimited open registration(s) into KanColle are currently suspended until 23rd of February 2016. Please refer to the following latest tweets below this line.'''

Despite Kancolle is now no longer enforcing lotteries for registration, occasionally the game server(s) would be full and would therefore stop accepting new player(s). Usually that would be addressed within the same week whenever such an event occurs. You may wish to read the game's official twitter page for further details, or the information above should there be any (rough) translated official tweets.

Occasional system maintenance of the game will also stop new players from registering new account(s).

Registration
Future Admirals must create an account on DMM. An English DMM account is fine ("Nutaku" is not), then you will need a VPN/Proxy in order to access DMM Japanese website. (Region Cookie method does not work for account creation). According to DMM's terms of service only those who are aged 18 or above can use their service, and those aged below 20 require parental guidance. Check out the Proxy Connection guide for more info on how to do this. Please read the FAQ section down below before asking any questions.

If you get redirected to a page describing that you should register and play at nutaku.com  then you need to change the language setting on DMM website to Japanese before proceeding.

In recent attempts of acquiring an account from DMM, it says that there is a problem every time someone tries to verify their e-mail. To solve this, first click the e-mail link to verify your account, then when the page has opened saying there is an error, copy the url of the error page and paste it to a new tab and then hit enter. It should say that the verification is complete. It seems the site has a bug.

Registration Process
Navigate to the game website at the specified time to enter into the server selection screen.

Here are tips from the staffs to ensure you have a successful registration:
 * Before connecting to the site, clear your browser cache.
 * Set your PC timezone to JST (UTC+09:00, 5 minutes time deviation is ok). (This step is very important, even when there are no lottery!)
 * Set your browser cache to at least 1024MB (not mandatory, but recommended).
 * Once you reach the cat waiting screen (refer to the first image of the slideshow below), refresh the page every 5~10 minutes.
 * 5分 (5 minutes); 10分 (10 minutes).
 * In the recent tweets from the staff, you can also refresh at 3~5 minute intervals. So please check the advised interval on their official twitter.

FAQ
'''Help! I am getting errors!''' '''Help! I'm getting a B-001 error when attempting to register!''' This page is not available in your area. When I connected to the game all the servers were full, what do I do? NOTE: If you receive the screen with the servers list and they appear full you may still have gotten a place click on all the servers to make sure. Only servers showing "満" are actually full.
 * Read here for any unspecific error that are not listed below.
 * First off make sure that you have tried inserting region cookie
 * If that fails, try using VPN/proxy method.
