It is for both Xbox and PC.
I encourage you to join, and use the group for arranging lobbies. I'll keep updating tomorrow, I'm a little over half-way done.
Update: I'm no longer collecting information from this thread. You can continue to post it in here, but it's better if you go directly to the group linked above and post it in there. If I haven't entered your info yet, it will probably go up over the next hour or two. If you add or update your info in the Topics, I will check them several times a day, and update the master list at the top of each Topic with new info.
___________
EDIT: Just going to throw this in at the top, don't forget to mention your platform and skill level when you leave your gamertag. I'm hoping to have a couple of platform-specific threads soon.
I'm adding a bit of advice below, just for people to look over. It will be at the bottom of the OP under the sub-heading "Tips." (EDIT: There is a new important fact about extraction for this challenge in "Tips")
EDIT: AizenSosuke1984 has a thread going for PS 3 players, and I will send him a list of PSN IDs from this thread.
PSN Players can use this link to his thread.
Still don't have a PC thread yet, so PC players can continue to post in here until we find someone.

Tips
- NEW: Only ONE player from the team must extract for all players to pass that faction.
(Update: This is true for Platinum Faction Extractions, but may not be true for the Silver/Normal extractions. If anyone has the chance to test, PM me and I'll update with the info.)
- If you're a strong Gold player, but struggle in Platinum PuGs, you don't necessarily need to run with three other strong players. You may only need one or two. Many people looking for help in this thread are likely ready to make the jump to Platinum, especially with the right kit and teammates.
- If you're a habitual Bronze/Silver player, but struggle in Gold, you should probably hook up with three strong players, if you can. As we organize into games, the pool of strong players will likely grow over the week as strong Gold players gain confidence in Platinum.
- Use a kit you are very comfortable with. Platinum can get hectic, and struggling with an unfamiliar kit will exacerbate any difficulties you have.
- Players comfortable with Infiltrators who have an AIU may well find that a good kit choice. Players who have access to a Juggernaut will find that kit is an excellent choice for Platinum, as well. A couple of us helped get a Platinum Reaper extraction for someone earlier today, and three of us were using Juggernauts.
- Microphones will definitely be helpful, but not necessary. It's more important for the stronger players to have microphones, if they can, so they can advise other players.
- If you don't have a microphone, PM one of the stronger players in your group with your total missiles and medigel before the match, so they know how many you're capable of carrying. They can then keep track of what you should use, and can advise you when to conserve your medigel. Players carrying 2 or 3 medigel should try very hard to save one for extraction, as that is the key to completing the Weekend Challenge.
- Extraction Wave is critical, so follow players' advice about where to defend. Watch or listen for when they break for the LZ, and try and stay close to them when that happens. It will usually be between 20 and 30 seconds from extraction, depending on the size of the map.
Good luck, everyone!
