About
The official map of NUM can be found here. This map is intended to assist with roleplaying and story-building, as well as war between the factions and the claiming of territory.

The Map of NUM contains a grid overlay. Squares are designated with a letter and number combination containing no spaces, such as AL25.

War and Claiming Territory
Factions can wage war and claim territory using a combination of the map's grid system and posts on the /r/NUM subreddit. Captured territory can be reclaimed, contested areas can be disputed time and time again.

Here's how it works: Please note that these rules are subject to change and evolve as they are fine-tuned.
 * 1) Make a post to r/NUM using the following title format: MAP   . Could be a self post, an image, a meme, whatever. It must still be number-related!
 * 2) * Please do not just make a blank post. Make sure it contains some sort of NUM or number-related content.
 * 3) * Example title format: MAP 400s AL25
 * 4) Flair your post a "MAP".
 * 5) Every 24 hours, the top map post for each faction will drop a square onto the map, "owning" it. If two factions contest the same square, the higher-rated post will succeed.
 * 6) Don't want someone to take your square? Feel free to downvote the "attacking" post.
 * 7) Don't spam map posts please!
 * 8) The first square claimed by your faction will become your capital.
 * 9) Protip: Coordinate with faction for best results.

Faction IDs
* Note that Faction ID is case-sensitive

MAP FAQ
A: As with previous versions of the map, Organizations still cannot claim territory. A: Yes, of course. This is something to add to NUM, not to replace anything. A: Then it's either not approved yet or doesn't have enough members. If it is and it was missed, let the NUM Staff know so that it can be added.
 * Q: Why aren't Organizations included on the list of Faction IDs?
 * Q: Can I still do Z-Logs?
 * Q: What if my Faction isn't included on the Faction ID list?
