There's really nothing unusual there. There's nothing to break, so if you just play around with it a bit I'm sure you'll get it. Nevertheless, here are some basic instructions.
To join a Flight:
1. Enter the Flight Terminal
2. Click the Flight # button of the flight you wish to join.
3. Once you're logged into the room of your choice, click the Fly Now! button. That'll autolaunch your flight and your flight sim and will join the session in progress.
To Host a Flight:
1. Enter the Flight Terminal
2. Click the Flight # button of the flight you wish to host.
3. Once you're logged into the room of your choice, click the Fly Now! button. That'll autolaunch your flight and your flight sim and set you as host.
Let us know if you have any problems or questions.

That sounds right.
For those following along at home, here's the plate:
> There is no mention of a published approach for Rwy 33
Actually the approach is a circle to land approach and no specific runway is listed in the approach title, so either runway can be used (e.g. there's no specific runway requirement).

The localizer is for the missed approach, so if you use that "arrival", as you say, "you're on your own". 
> I flew a Lockheed Constellation and came in too high.
Easy to do. From the plate it lists 9.67 degrees as the descent angle!

Any landing you can walk away from...
Merry Merry!
