Remove the right player from the roster without leaving team assignments and moderation decisions in a confusing state.

Outcome

After this guide, moderators will know how to remove a player from an event and when to do it instead of leaving them unassigned.

Before you start

  • Confirm the player should actually be removed from the bingo.
  • Check whether the player is on a team and whether moderators need to preserve context for past submissions before removing them.

Step by step

  1. Open the bingo workspace.
  2. Go to the All Teams tab where players are listed.
  3. Find the player you want to remove.
  4. Open the player action menu.
  5. Choose Remove from Bingo.
  6. Confirm the action when prompted.

When removal makes sense

  • A player joined by mistake.
  • A player dropped out before the event really started.
  • A duplicate signup needs to be cleaned up.
  • A moderator has decided the player should no longer participate.
  • A player has not paid their entry fee by the start time.

Common gotchas

  • Removal is different from leaving someone unassigned. An unassigned player is still in the bingo, while a removed player is no longer part of the roster.
  • If the player still belongs in the event but needs a different team, move them instead of removing them.
  • If the problem is unpaid entry, consider using Mark unpaid first unless your event rules require full removal.
