| BuncoConnection.com is a complex site, full of very powerful
functionality. While we have made every effort to keep it as
simple as possible, it is understandable that you might have ended up
here after a little confusion. There is a lot going on here.
Let' see if we can get you going again.
Here's how it is SUPPOSED to work.
Anyone with a computer connected to the web can visit and view this
site's main pages. You do not have to be registered, an insider,
or logged in to view the home page, view discussion boards, view the
"How To Play" section and use the electronic Bunco tutor, etc.
A BuncoConnection.com insider,
that is, a registered user, has access to other areas
and functionality on the site. These include additional forums,
the ability to post messages in the discussion forums, and most
importantly, the ability to create and manage a Bunco group on the site.
There is no charge for becoming an insider.
Creation and management of your
Bunco group is really what this site was intended for.
Here's how it works:
| 1. |
Create a group |
| |
|
One person creates or establishes the group on
the site. (Remember, only a BuncoConnection.com insider
can create or join a group). This person is the group's
ADMINISTRATOR. Creating a group is very easy, just click
on the "Create A Group" link on any page and fill in a couple of
pieces of info. |
| 2. |
Invite others to join |
| |
|
The ADMINISTRATOR, or the person who started the
group, must "Invite" others to join the group. These are
not invitations to a specific party, but invitations to join
your online Bunco group. Inviting friends to join your
group is very easy, just sign onto the site with the email and
password you created when you first registered as an insider.
Then follow the link on the left side of the main page to
"Invite A New Member". Then just enter the name and email
of the friend you are inviting. That person will receive
an email automatically from the buncoconnection.com website
inviting them to join and providing a link to the sign up page.
The invitees name will appear to the right of the main page
under the heading of "The following persons have been asked to
join this group but not yet accepted". When they do accept and
sign-up, their name will be automatically removed from this list
and added to the list of active members. |
| 3. |
Add
Party Info |
| |
|
Once your group's members have signed up, it is
time to enter your group's next party info. The group
ADMINISTRATOR will have links available that other members
won't. One of these extra inks is to "Edit Party Info".
Simply enter the 3 items the next page asks for:
Who is the host--pull down a
list of group members. Only registered users and members
of your group are available for selection.
Date--Enter the date of your
group's next party. You can use the handy calendar date
selector by clicking on the calendar icon next to the date
field.
Time--Select the appropriate
Hours and Minutes from the pull-downs. The site initially
loads "7:00 PM" (a most popular time, indeed). But you may
select any time you like. |
RSVP
When new party info is added by the Administrator of
your group, the site notifies ALL "Active" members of your group via
email that there has been an update. That announcement of the next
party will prompt the member to log on the the site and RSVP. Once
logged on, click the link to "RSVP For This Party" and fill in 3 quick
items. Your name will be added to the list of persons who have
provided an RSVP. |
