The Team

Team games need a team. Your own is created by giving it a name; you join somebody else's through the captain's invite link.

The team page opens from the cabinet — the “Team” tab, the “Open the team page” link; the whole of it is also embedded in the cabinet itself.

If you have no team, the page carries a form: think of a name and press “Create”. Whoever creates it becomes the captain.

Joining Somebody Else's

The invite link is handed out by the captain. The link leads to the team page, and by itself it does nothing: opening it, you see the line “You are invited to the team …” at the top and the “Join the team” button. Until you press it, you are not in the team.

Not signed in — instead of the button there will be “Sign in” and “sign up” links, and after signing in you are brought back here.
Already in another team — the engine asks again: “Are you sure you want to move from the team …?”.
The link has gone stale — you see “Ask the captain for a new invite link — this one is out of date”.

You do not have to wait for an invitation, either: somebody else's team page carries “Apply to this team”, and then it is up to the captain. Your own application can be withdrawn.

The captain and the half-captain see the “Invitation to the team” card on the team page:

the link itself — a click on it copies it to the clipboard;
the “Refresh the link” button: the old one stops working after that. This is what you want if the link has leaked.

Do not confuse it with the “Anonymous entry to the game” — a separate link by which your players play one particular game without signing up. It lives on the game card, and only the captain can cancel it.

A team has five positions: Captain, Half-captain, Player, Reserve and Application (someone who has asked to join but has not been accepted yet).

Above the roster, one line says who you are and what you may do:

captain — the roster, the invitations and the team name are yours;
half-captain — the roster, the invitations and the half-captains are yours, the name and the captaincy are not;
player — you play for the team; the captain changes the roster;
reserve — on the roster but not in the main line-up;
application — waiting for the captain's answer.

The roster may be changed by the captain and the half-captain. In a member's row they have a three-position toggle — “Half-captain” / “Player” / “Reserve”; the current one is highlighted, and pressing it again is harmless. The captain's own row has no toggle.

Someone who has applied has two buttons instead of the toggle: “Accept” and “Decline”.

The “Make captain” button belongs to the captain only — a half-captain cannot pass the captaincy on. The former captain becomes a half-captain, so they do not drop out of the team.

The button fires on the second press: after the first one it renames itself to “100% Make captain” for three seconds. That is how every irreversible button on this site works.

A captain cannot leave the team — the captaincy has to be passed on first. Everyone else has “Leave this team”.

“Remove” — and the person is left with no team at all, not on the reserve. They can immediately create one of their own or accept somebody else's invitation. The captain cannot be removed.

“Roster” — with a count and a “Last seen” column. On a narrow screen the table unfolds into cards.
“Active games” — with the “All”, “Applied”, “Accepted”, “Test” and “Playing” filters.
“Rated games” — the place, the name, the start time.
“Awards”.
“History of roster changes” — the date, the login, what happened and by what means. An arrival through the invite link is marked “By link”, and repeated identical events are collapsed into one row with “×N”.
