at last we meet at the end of the world, was it worth it?

[voiceover] WILL: You may have heard of a new team on this server, or you may have heard it called “not a real team”, or a team with no common goal. A group planning to run “war games”. They wanted to keep this team a secret. [clip] COG: I don't think there's any reason to be like-- it's not like a coming out thing. (laughs) NARA: Yeah. Yeah. COG: It's like, it's like-- NARA: Yeah. LEOO: Yeah. NARA: We don't need to openly declare anything.

[voiceover] WILL: When that didn’t work out, they spent all their time downplaying the extent of it, lying to your faces.

[clip] COG: It is kind of weird-- it's like we're metateamed instead of, like, actually teamed. Like, we're teamed on discord. (laughs)

[voiceover] WILL: But of course you can’t just take our word for it. Let’s hear it from them, shall we?

[clips] LEOO: Now that we're in agreeance on, like, teaming and in favor of, like, war games…

LEOO: I think-- I think we have the social aspect. And I also think, because if you want to have total control, you're gonna need a str--like, a str, like a strong PvPer also all on the same team, Cog, COG: Yeah. LEOO: because that really would scare people. That would motivate people to stay in line.

COG: I would probably need to format this like a government.

[voiceover] ARCH: They want to control you. They already look down on you.

[clip] LEOO: I mean, if we want conflict, it's useful for us, like… yeah. Even though I--I--I just want Chips's feelings hurt. Like. Again. (laughs)

[voiceover] ARCH: Not only that, they want to use you, abuse your trust, to make this happen.

[clips] NARA: I might be able to get Void and Betty--not, like, on the inside, but I can get stuff through them, if that makes sense. NARA: Duuuuude, I'm going to be using my boyfriend. Fuuuuuuck. It's okay. (Cog laughs) COG (crosstalk): It's okay, that's what they're made for. LEOO (crosstalk): It's okay, that's what Divorcesteal's all about.

COG: I think Evi could fit in a--in a role. Somewhere. NARA: I was gonna say, I think we could-- COG (crosstalk): But I don't think it'd be a-- NARA: definitely get Evi to do things, maybe without fully knowing what's going on COG: Yeah.

[voiceover] ARCH: While it’s possible any interest or care they show may be genuine, it won’t stop them from using what they know against you.

SIN: This is a team far stronger than any other on this server so far. This is on purpose, of course - how can they attempt to “keep you in line” without power? It’s only the third week of the server, yet already groups are moving behind your back to control you, to hurt you and those you care about. The only question is: Are you going to let them?
