GM joining as player from outside game

Hey there, quick question: My group is trying out rotating GMs, and I am currently the owner of the campaign on roll20, as such when I am not GMing I have to join the game as the GM, click the gear link and hit "Rejoin as player". The issue with this is that if another GM has setup hidden handouts/rooms I might accidentally see them as I join and spoil it a bit. I cannot be demoted to player as I have the ownership of the game. I was just wondering if there is a way to straight up join a game as player instead of GM from the main Roll20 game select screen? As in without entering the game and hitting "Rejoin as player". Thanks.

Right-click on the Re-Join as Player button, and copy the address the it represents. Create a new bookmark to that address.
Save that bookmark :)
Cheers this works a treat!

It is also usually recommended that the GM create a splash page so that when people enter the game they don't see anything due to a possible glitch or mistake made on setting something up (tokens on wrong layer, fog of war removed in a section being worked on then not put back, etc...).
