When a player joins for the very first time, they are placed into the FAQ room. Signs going over general information about the server are placed in areas easily readable to the player. At this point, the player has two options: start playing maps or take the FAQ quiz. It is highly advised the player take the FAQ quiz at this point, since it not only rewards 7 [[points]] upon completion (equivalent to a yellow difficulty map), but it is required to have been completed in order for the player to enter Hardcore. This quiz can be joined at any time with the command /c join faq quiz.

A player can “rank up” to blue by getting 100 points and completing 5 Moderate (yellow) or more difficult maps.

Once Hardcore has been completed, the player must submit a Green Application on the forums to earn the green rank.

Within this world, greenies are able to create maps to be placed in FFA. Before being put into FFA, however, a map must go through a review process.
