Why exactly is there 2 threads on this matter?

What "matter" (subject,topic,etc) do you mean?

I guess what I mean is that we have this thread, and plus the thread entitled "Not a SEIV olymics thread anymore." Are they not both the same game that we are discussing in them? If so why the need for 2 threads?

Ok, I think I understand. The other thread got hijacked by the "SEIV Olympics" crowd for awhile. In reality, Pablo simply wanted another team to play against. I started this thread to recruit a USA team outside of the "noise" the Olympians where generating on the other thread. My goal was to meet Pablo's actual request - a team composed of a players from one other country (USA) to play a team vs. team game against Pablo's team (Lithuanians).

Pablo's thread has now returned to that original intent. Gryphin, Pablo, and I are now using it to set the game up.

After recruiting the required number of USA players, this thread became the USA team's thread for intra-team communications.

So, yes, they (the 2 threads) are the same game at this time, but one is basically the game admin thread (admin + each team's contact person) and this thread is for the USA team.

Personally, the whole process has given me head pains - like herding cats. I hope it is all worth it.
