Team appearances

gollark: Yes.
gollark: Kristforge is for GPUs. You presumably have one of those.
gollark: I think what would be helpful is better cross-server integration i.e. server-to-server networking and chat relays, sort of thing.
gollark: Looking at Terra's post, I kind of agree with their assessment that there's not really a hugely active player base for CC-focused servers, but the "plan" is unhelpful and kind of bad.
gollark: Terra is never wrong. All glory to Terra.
