1. Join a Group
There are a few ways to become a member of a group on the Ladders app:
- **Invitation for New Users:** If you don't have an account, a group owner can add you using your name and a valid email address. You will receive an email invitation to activate your account.
- **Existing Account:** If you already have an account, a group owner can search for you and add you directly to the group.
- **Self-Request:** From the group's page in the app, you can request to join and wait for the group owner's approval.
... and that's all! You are now ready to play.
2. Participate in Games
- Group owners will create scheduled game days.
- Check the **RSVP tab** in the group's page to find those dates and confirm your availability.
- Your RSVP can be to confirm you are **Going**, **Not Going**, or **Maybe**.
- If the session is full, you will be added to the waitlist. The system automatically manages the waitlist and will add you to the confirmed list once a spot opens.
- You can return to this page at any time to check or update your RSVP status and check others' statuses.
Now just show up to game day & have fun!
3. Follow Your Progress
- Group managers will enter game scores as they are played.
- Your scores and rankings will be updated in **real time**.
- Check the **leaderboard** frequently to monitor your progress as more games are played and you climb the ladder!
4. Other Player Features
- The group page includes a **"Message Board"** to connect and communicate with other group members.
- In the main app page, you will receive **in-app notifications** for game-related events, such as new scores being entered or changes to the game day status.
- You can also check your overall game statistics in the **"Stats" page**.
- More features are regularly added to enrich your pre and post-game experience!
