🧭 NAP 9 — Player Guide

Guide

A simple, practical guide for everyday players.

This document explains how to use NAP 9 to your advantage, how to protect your alliance, and what tools you actually need.

No legalese. No walls of text. Just the parts that matter to you.

⭐ Why NAP 9 Matters to YOU

NAP 9 gives players:

  • Protection — your lands and trucks are covered when other players break rules
  • Predictability — cases follow the same steps every single time
  • Power — ANY player can open a case
  • Receipts — everything is logged and auditable
  • Stability — alliances can’t “vibe-judge” you anymore; the system handles it

If you follow the steps here, you can’t be ignored, gaslit, or brushed off.
NAP 9 forces fair handling.

🛡️ When Should YOU Use NAP 9?

Use the system whenever another alliance:

  • plunders your Truck / Secret Task
  • hits your tile or base without permission
  • refuses compensation
  • repeatedly griefs you
  • ignores diplomacy
  • hides banned/blacklisted players
  • evades penalties

If anything feels unfair, destabilizing, or repetitive, NAP 9 is made specifically to handle it.

📸 Step 1 — Capture Evidence (Your Most Important Job)

Take 1–3 screenshots:

  1. Offender visible (IGN clearly shown)
  2. Timestamp (Server Time screens preferred)
  3. Context — what they hit or plundered

Avoid:

  • cropped images
  • DMs
  • AI images
  • collages
  • after-the-fact explanations without proof

If you can’t show it, it didn’t happen.

📤 Step 2 — Submit Evidence in '''#evidence'''

Post the following:

  • screenshots
  • server time
  • offender name
  • short (≤3 sentences) explanation
  • diplomacy attempts (if any)

Example macro:

**Incident:** Truck Plunder  
**Offender:** NastyToast (Alliance TAG)  
**Victim:** MagicMouse  
**Time (ST):** 14:22  
**Summary:** Player plundered my UR truck during an active run.  
**Evidence:** [screenshots attached]

That’s all you need.
Do NOT DM Clerks—public evidence protects you.

🏛️ Step 3 — Wait for the Clerk Log

A Clerk will:

  • check the screenshots
  • request fixes if needed
  • assign a Case ID
  • post it in '''#case-log'''
  • mark the case ACTIVE

Once ACTIVE → the Council is REQUIRED to handle your case.

No alliance can bury, silence, or derail it.

⚖️ How Cases Work (Player Version)

NAP 9 categorizes behavior:

TierMeaningPlayer Examples
🟨 Minoraccidental / small harmaccidental tile hit, 1-time plunder
🟧 Moderaterepeated / harmfulrepeated plunders, refusing diplomacy
🟥 Severemajor harm / evasionevidence tampering, coordinated attacks, hiding banned players

Escalation is automatic:

  • 2 Minors → Moderate
  • 2 Moderates → Severe

Severe happens FAST if someone is repeatedly griefing the server.

💰 Penalties That Benefit YOU

Penalties after Council vote may include:

  • warned player
  • required restitution (resources back to you)
  • bans/expulsions
  • watchlists
  • blacklists
  • alliance sanctions

If you’re the victim, YOU get restitution.

🧵 Macros You Can Use Anytime

Diplomacy request​

Hi, please compensate for this plunder/tile hit.  
If not resolved, I will submit to NAP 9.

Follow-up after no response​

No response. Submitting to NAP 9 for formal review.

🧨 What If They Keep Doing It?

Good news: NAP 9 remembers patterns, even if YOU don’t know the history.

If someone is a chronic offender:

  • Clerks recognize repeat offenders
  • Cases escalate automatically
  • Penalties become harsher
  • Their alliance may be sanctioned
  • They may be banned or blacklisted

You don’t need to know their past.

The system will handle it.

🛠️ Using Amendments (Players Can Influence Laws)

NAP 9 lets alliances add new rules, new penalties, or clarify systems through amendments.

Players cannot submit amendments directly​

BUT you can:

  1. ask your Full-Member R5 or Delegate to sponsor one
  2. coordinate with your alliance leadership
  3. work with two other Associate Alliances (if you are one)
    • three Associate Alliances together can propose an amendment

Amendments shape the future rules of the server.

🧰 Amendment Macro (for your R5)

**Proposed Amendment:** Add truck/secret task fines  
**Type:** Additive  
**Section:** Title 7 (Offense Categories)  
**Text:**  
"Unauthorized plunder of Trucks or Secret Tasks is a Minor Offense on first occurrence and a Moderate Offense on subsequent occurrences within 30 days. Standard restitution is required: equal to the resource loss documented in evidence."  
**Justification:** Clarifies treatment of truck/ST plundering and improves consistency.  
**Retroactive:** No  
**Activation:** Immediate

You can use this for ANY rule you want to add.

🪢 Appeals (Players Can Trigger These Too)

If you think a penalty against your alliance was unfair:

  1. ask your R5 to file an appeal
  2. Clerks validate
  3. investigation happens
  4. Council votes

If 5 YES → penalty reduced
If 7 YES → penalty overturned

Appeals keep power balanced.

🏰 How To Protect Your Alliance

Below is a compact, player-friendly table that turns the five key protection rules into clear, actionable guidance.

🔰 Rule📌 What You Should Do💡 Why It Matters
1. Report everythingAlways submit incidents to #evidence, even Minor ones.Every confirmed incident builds a record, which fuels escalation rules and strengthens your alliance's protection.
2. Keep screenshotsSave your screenshots/videos for 30 days with timestamps.The system may not always be perfect. You may be able to prove patterns that weren't otherwise picked up on.
3. Encourage leadership to voteMake sure your R5/Delegate participates in all votes.Silent Council seats weaken quorum, slow rulings, and can trigger participation penalties that hurt your alliance.
4. Don’t harbor banned playersMake sure banned/blacklisted players are kicked within 4 hours of Clerk notice.Harboring immediately removes all NAP protection from your alliance until compliance is confirmed.
5. Follow diplomacy rulesCommunicate clearly before aggression; keep logs when needed.Good diplomacy avoids penalties, supports case outcomes, and strengthens your alliance’s reputation and bargaining position.

🔥 How To Use NAP 9 Aggressively

Players can strategically use NAP 9 to:

  • pressure repeat offenders
  • force diplomatic resolution
  • discourage predatory behavior
  • push alliances to remove toxic players
  • shape server laws through amendments

A single well-documented case can:

  • expose chronic offenders
  • force leadership to step in
  • trigger severe escalation

NAP 9 rewards players who collect receipts.

🧩 Common Player Questions

Do I need to talk to the offender first?​

Not required, but helpful.
If they ignore you, the case may become stronger.

What if the Clerk asks for more evidence?​

Just post the missing items.
You get 6 hours to fix it.

Can the offender retaliate?​

If they do, you now have two cases.

Can normal players check case history?​

Yes, #case-log is public to Members.

Can I get in trouble by accident?​

If it’s accidental and you cooperate, it’s easily only a Minor.

🧭 Final Advice

NAP 9 is powerful, but only if you actually use it.

  • Screenshot → Submit → Wait for Case ID → Let the system work
  • Don’t argue in DMs
  • Don’t negotiate with chronic offenders
  • Don’t rely on alliance politics
  • Trust the process

NAP 9 exists to protect you. Use it.
