====== Dealing with Guests ====== | ====== Dealing with Guests ====== | ||
+ | **Scenario**: | ||
+ | It's important to realise the difference between someone who is a newcomer at your club and someone who is a newcomer to the EBU. The two types of visitor are handled differently. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ===== Newcomers to the EBU ===== | ||
+ | |||
+ | These people do not have any kind of an EBU record. They have never been a member of the EBU, they have never bought something from the shop, they have never entered an EBU event or attended an EBU training course. Perhaps they' | ||
+ | |||
+ | These people fit into two categories: | ||
+ | |||
+ | ==== They have no intention of ever joining the EBU ==== | ||
+ | |||
+ | Simply mark them as a guest when you upload the session file to the EBU. This means they won't get any masterpoints, | ||
+ | |||
+ | Note that members of [[myebu: | ||
+ | |||
+ | ==== They may wish to join some day ==== | ||
+ | |||
+ | For this you'll need to get them an EBU number since they cannot earn masterpoints without one. You can create them as a //Potential Member//. Go through the same procedure as making a new member, but untick the box that says //This new person is a member of your club//. This will give them a temporary number and within 24 hours they' | ||
+ | |||
+ | Now, if they ever do decide to join the EBU, their NGS grade and earned masterpoints will be waiting for them. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ===== Newcomers to the club but not to the EBU ===== | ||
+ | |||
+ | These people do have an EBU record and they will want to earn masterpoints and get NGS adjustments when they play at your club. Ask them for their EBU number. If they don't know it, ask them for some basic details about them so that you can look it up when it's time to submit the session file. | ||
+ | |||
+ | You may think it's simpler to just mark them as a guest, but our experience has shown that this is not a good idea. | ||
+ | |||
+ | - You're giving them a lesser service, by withholding masterpoints and NGS adjustments from them. | ||
+ | - If they ever complain about the masterpoints they should have won it takes a lot of time and hassle to sort it out. The EBU generally will not amend a club's record without their permission, so we have to forward these enquiries on to you to resolve. | ||
+ | - If they partner someone who you do identify, that player will not get an NGS adjustment when they should do. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ===== How to tell the difference ===== | ||
+ | |||
+ | Ask them! They might not know if they are currently an EBU member, but they will know if they' | ||
