A player must be a member of the IN discord server.

Any person may become a player by posting a message setting forth their intent to do so in the channel ⁠#game-actions, provided they have not been a player at any point in the past seven days. A player may cease being a player by sending a message that sets forth their intent to do so in #⁠game-actions.

When a player joins, the following file is created at ~/players/ named {player name}:
 id = {Discord ID}
 is_player = true
 is_su = false
 privileges = 2
If that file already exists (the player has the same id), is_player = true. If a player's name contains "/" characters, they are replaced by "|". If multiple players would have files of the same name, subsequent player files have an integer appended to their name to represent their place when joining.

When a player ceases being a player, is_player = false. If a player or ex-player leaves the server, they are no longer a player and their file is removed.
