1) The offended party must have attempted contact by email with their opponent to resolve the issue (2 attempts minimum over a period of 3 days). You must include copies of your attempts at contact with your submission if your opponent is not responding to your emails. If someone says they will not report a game right after it is done you must still attempt to contact them at least twice (often times, people say things they don't mean when angry, but later will report as they should).

2) Viewing a saved game file before the game is finished is prohibited. You are not allowed to view the game to "see if someone is cheating." If you have suspicions someone is cheating in your game: finish the game before viewing any saves, or halt play and send in the saved game files for the HC to review so you or a friend do not view them.

3) Do NOT send saved game files made during an opponents turn in as evidence of possible cheating. Saves (created during YOUR turn) often need to be made to prove someone actually cheated. Saves made when it is not your turn are often very inaccurate because data has not fully been sent and will not be considered valid no matter what they "seem" to show.

4) Send in your conclusive evidence with an explanation of what you consider the wrong doing to be and the Honor Council will review your argument and render a decision on the issue. Your issue should be sent directly to the HC Chairman (listed below)
