This is what I've surmised.. kinda annoying though.
Am I right? Or am I just overlooking something
None.
Player 9 and above can't run /any/ triggers.
None.
I assume that was TassadarZeratul said is the problem, but if he's wrong, can you clarify what "don't work" means?
None.

What TassadarZeratul is pretty much all there is to it. Having triggers for players 9-12 does absolutely nothing.
None.
How about actions that affect them?

They can be effected by actions and detected by conditions, they just can't own a trigger.
None.

Note that some actions, such as the Order action, don't work the same for them, like you have to use Patrol or Attack on Players 9-11 to make them move at all.
None.
An example would work well here. I'll use this trigger for the example:
Conditions:
P12 brings at least two Terran Civilian to "Kill Civs"
Actions:
Kill all Terran Civilian at "Kill Civs" for P12.
Preserve trigger.
If I set this trigger to belong to P1-P8, All Players, or one of the Forces, it would cause any civs belonging to Neutral at the location "Kill Civs" if there are at least two civs in the location. However, if I set it to run for P9 or above, nothing would happen.

...you have to use Patrol or Attack on Players 9-11 to make them move at all.
False. The order "Move" works just fine.
The only irritating limitation I have with Players 9-11 is that I can't create them
Have to create/give. There's small workarounds to have triggers operate on them the same as a normal player, aside from AI.
In any case, he was stating that the hyper triggers weren't working for those specific players, when in fact hyper triggers work for all players. And, so there won't be another post yelling at me, I'll repeat that triggers cannot be owned by Players 9+, "Current Player," "Aliies," "Foes," "Neutral," "Neutral Players," "Non Allied Victory Players," or Unknowns.

What about excessively extended players?
None.
I doubt those would work, because the game doesn't check into players that don't exist or are not supposed to have triggers, imho.
None.
Player 229 was recently discovered to be the NUKE DOT of Terran Ghosts. Scripts?
(It might not be 229, but something along those lines).
None.

Seeing as that's a sprite, I'm kinda doubting that..
False. The order "Move" works just fine.
Odd. A while back I was having problems getting them to move, I had to use a specific order type to make it work properly, it was a Command Center for player 9, anyway, I just tested and all 3 orders work fine on a Terran Marine for players 9 and 12, so I don't know what happened.. Maybe there's something about buildings..
