As long as a game is listed as 'New' players will not be able to enter it. A game can be started in the Gamestup. Click on 'SETUP', the click on 'Start'. The reason for this not to give too much away to players who are curious about an upcoming game. I usually prepare the game by selecting the cards in the Gamesetup, but instead of 'start' I click on 'Back' that stores the cards and takes me back to the Game info. Shortly before the game actually starts I go into the gamesetup and click on 'Start'.

So at the moment just hit F5 or click reload in your browser to see the results!
