Community Kanban:

This server will be up for a month (Oct21-Nov21), it’s hosted on a game hosting service. I trust everyone here to be nice, but if there is a problem @ me, and we can revert a save.

The server admin (me) will be able to see your factorio username, and your ip address.

Not familiar with multiplayer. What's the reason for saving a local copy of the game?

In case something horrible happens

You have access to saves that clients initiate on their end?

No, distributing the state of the map across the participants gives us resilience against any issues from bugs, server issues, or griefers.
