Accepting an invite to set up a team

In step 3 If you choose instead to join an existing team, rather than set up a new one then you will need the PIN number and password for the team. You can ask your teacher (if they set up the team) or the team captain for this information and enter it here. Once you have registered the team captain will receive the request for you to join and they can approve it from their account. If they don’t do that then you can sign in and set up your own account from your account page.

If you are the first person to join the team then you will be designated as the captain and it is your job to submit the answers each week. If you would prefer for someone else to do that then you can invite them to sign up to your team using the PIN and Password, and then delegate the captaincy to them.

If you are the team captain then you will be able to see the team PIN and Password on the team tab in your account page. You can share that with anyone you would like to have join your team.

If a friend has already setup a team and has invited you to join them then you should follow the same process as above, asking them for the PIN and password that they will find on the Your Team tab in their account page.
