[QUESTION] Joining the teams together

This has been suggested, and I think it is probably a good idea. A team which is made up of all the people in Unfiction playing, surely this would be better than the two teams in competition. Is there a way this can be done?

Well sure, but how do we do it?

Good question. The only way I could see it happening is if a new team were made. The amount of members would compensate for some of the points lost, plus then you'd have everyone on the board working together. I dunno.

But if we did that, we really couldn't be sure that everyone would switch, plus we'd lose all of the bonus points and such that we had for the two individual colonies.

If we're serious about it then the creaters of the two Colonies (Argologists and Yay) should try to contact... Whoever is behind the curtain? Maybe by asking in a post on the general Colony forum? Maybe we could smash our two colonies together points and all?

Can members from the colony with the fewest members join the other colony using slightly different tags? At least we'd keep the bonus points from one of the colinies.

It just makes more sense for us all to be together. Is this how a majority of both teams feel?

If the teams should join they should join now. Both teams are almost at the top of the leader board so it only makes sence to join the 2 colonies on one forum.

I don't care how it's done. Weither the teams are merged or one is just shutdown. But this needs to happen as soon as possible.

Btw, Hey. I just joined.

Aww I joined a friend's colony before noticing the Unfiction thread.

We're having similar problems. I'm on TeamXbox and for some reason we have two colonies on the leaderboard. There seems to be no way to join them at the moment( and the site is pretty buggy in general)

In any case, good luck to you all! This looks like a fun game- I'm sorry I have to compete against my unfiction friends, but whatcha gonna do.

I think that we should get a representative of each Colony so that we can discuss whether or not we wanna do this.

BTW, which one is unforum? Is is ARGolonists or What? We could just put up an announcement telling everyone to move to a chosen colony and elt them know that if they stay in the other colony they'll have no team members...

Well Argologists is highest up in the leader board, I think the quickest way would be just to shutdown Yay and move everyone over to Argologists, becasue I'm doubting the Pm's will let us merge both of the teams together with all their points as well. I'm guessing because most of the points for each team are for the same challenges right?

The PM's merged the two TeamXbox groups and now we're in first- maybe they'll do the same for ARGolonists and yay.

I think we should unite, both because it is in the spirit of the game, and because it will foster more trust and cooperation in the community.
