A voluntary development strike team composed of GameMasters Zadraes, Koror, Ulerith, Cordulia, and Haros. Their goal is to push out regular small updates each week, usually on Tuesdays.

GM Tullie was an founding member of this team, but has stepped back to focus on some other awesome projects for a while.
