The 'central point' for players is 'My Dashboard'.
This page has a summary of all the leagues you are in and league relevant information. For example: 1) The next race and your entry for it. 2) Your standings in the league. 3) Any unread messages.
Each league is like a micro-site within the overall Driver Group Game site and organized in the same way as the image below shows.

If you are in multiple leagues, the layout is the same for each. Again, just think of each league as its own micro-site. Each league has the league name on each page within the league, so you know which one you are in.

There are two different navigation bars that you'll see on Driver Group Game.
Site Main Navigation
When viewing the site on a large screen this is what the Main Navigation looks like. It's positioned at the top of the page and right aligned. The links in it are the top-level navigation through-out the site.

When viewing the site on a small screen this is what the Main Navigation looks like. It's minimized and outlined in orange. Clicking it will expand it from the side of the page to select links. It's positioned at the top of the page and right aligned.

League Navigation
When viewing the site on a large screen this is what the League Navigation looks like. It's only displayed when you are in a league and it's centered on the page below the league name. The links in it are all related to the specific league that you are viewing..

When viewing the site on a small screen this is what the League Navigation looks like. It's minimized and outlined in a blue-green color. Clicking it will expand it downward to select links. It's positioned below the league name and left aligned.

I changed authentication systems, so your password from last season doesn't work. It is only when you first come back for the season that you will do the process in the red box. After the first time doing this you'll just login as normal - if you reset your password as shown in the steps below.







You can find your Player ID displayed on the "My Dashboard" page at the top next to the greeting.

It is also displayed in any leagues you are in (except the Official DGG Leagues)
- Click through your league navigation to 'About » Players'.
- Scroll to the section labeled 'The Whole Crew'
- On your player card is your User ID.

You can reset your password from your 'My Dashboard' page.






Your avatar is the image displayed by your name throughout various pages on the site. If you haven't uploaded one of your own images - you'll randomly have one of 10 avatars that will display everytime you refresh or go to a different page.
You can change your avatar from your 'My Dashboard' page by clicking the 'Edit Profile' link..

Select the tab labeled PROFILE and scroll down to CHANGE YOUR AVATAR

- Clicking the 'Browse...' button will open a window on your computer to select an image.
- Navigate to the image you want and click it - then click 'Open'.

Your League ID (and password if a private league) is all you need to invite someone to play in your league.
1a: Finding your League ID method #1

1b: Finding your League ID method #2

2a: For private leagues you can find your League Password using the league navigation: 'About » League Rules'.

2b: At the top of the 'League Rules' page it will display your league password.

3: Now that you have that information a Registered and Logged in player can use the main navigation to click through 'Leagues » Join a League'.

4a: The easiest way to find a league is in the dropdown box by the league number.

4b: The longer route would be to use the filters (eg: Private Leagues » Cup) and click through the pagination links.

5: When you find the league you are looking for click the 'Join League' link. If the league is private you'll be asked for the password. Once completed you're taken to the league as its newest member!




Click the blue (active) switch to quit the league.This will remove you from the league. Leagues you have quit still remain here with the option to Rejoin the league if you want.

Each league has its own entry form. This is an important concept to remember. Since leagues can be set up differently - one entry form may not fit all leagues.
On 'My Dashboard'
All your leagues are listed on your My Dashboard page, with each league summary showing your current race entry. If you see a red exclamation next to the league name, that means your entry form is not filled out.

On League 'Home Page'
Your league home page also shows a summary of your entry with a link to it just like your My Dashboard does.

In League navigation under My Entries
Your league navigation also has a direct link to the Current race entry form.

Select drivers from the dropdown select boxes and click 'Save Entry' when done.

Select drivers from the dropdown select boxes and click 'Save Entry' when done.

Entries will save without a full 8-driver lineup In previous DGG seasons your entry would not save if you didn't have 8 drivers selected. That is not the case this season.

When you save less than 8 drivers - you'll receive a notice - but it will still save. When you have drivers missing from your entry form you simply won't receive any points for those slots. If your league uses only Lock B and doesn't award qualifying points this won't make any difference,

The bottom of your entry form shows you when the entry was last saved.

Your entry summary on your My Dashboard and on your league home page will show the missing drivers.

Error checks in place when entry forms are saved.
Previous seasons some players dealt with issues where their entry form had drivers in the wrong group or doubled drivers - causing an inaccurate score. This season - before an entry saves to the database - it goes through these checks:
- Are the drivers in the correct driver group?
- Are any of the drivers over their usage limits?
- Has the previous version of the entry been completely deleted from the database before saving this entry?
I believe this should remedy the problem of previous seasons.
