Teams 3.0 Backstory

 * The initial discussions for Teams 3.0 began on 27. May 2019 on the Discord Server, where Staryard complained about things that used to be better in 2017 and then founded the #2017WarpBack movement. Several people joined it.
 * On the same day Schrottii posted a suggestion of things the movement should be about, including Teams 3.0.
 * Staryard created the #2017WarpBack team to promote the revolution. Schrottii, Staryard and someone else were the main leaders of the team.
 * In the week from the 5.8.2019-11.8.2019, the #2017WarpBack team raced against The Crew and lost, but both had huge amounts of merges. #2017WarpBack was supported by players like Brickman, SNEZHA and Fishka while The Crew had help from Copy (who did 1.8M in that week, but it is still not confirmed if it was legit). The goal was to hit #1 to convince Endte to add Teams 3.0, but because of how good the ideas were and the huge amount of merges it still worked. There were many ideas for Teams 3.0 features. A few weeks later the team disbanded as they reached their goals, the team Constellations can be seen as their successor.
 * Some weeks later, Teams 3.0 were added and frequently updated.

Teams 2.0
Teams 2.0 were the main Team system from 3.3 to 8.3 (Teams 3.0 were added in 8.4) and most Teams 3.0 features were added back then (See: Teams 2.0).

Teams 1.0
Teams 1.0 were the main Team system from 2.0 to 3.3.1 (They were removed in 3.3.2).

Updates

 * 8.4, release: Team descriptions, copy and paste, online indicator, color picker, bug fixes and more
 * 9.0: Team Map including Wood, Stone and Team Tokens (no use yet)
 * 9.1: Car Activity Dialog, Gold Mines, Gold, Bank of Merges, two Team Upgrades
 * 9.2: Car Navigation, third Team Upgrade

 * 9.4: It is now possible to change the team name

Trivia

 * The most amount of merges a team has done in a single week were 17,088,234 merges (17 million) by Team Big in their "10 million merge week") from 01/27/2020 to 02/02/2020. The previous record, from Teams 2.0, was below 10 million merges. This special week was the idea of the Boost Crew.
 * Seven Players have done 1 million merges or more: Brickman has done 1,7M merges, Bezzem 2M, Fishka 1,1M, John Brighton (the team leader) 1,2M, Starman 1,7M, Temptation 1M and Anju 1M merges. Together they've done 9,7M merges.
 * Bezzem's 2M weekly merges were automatically removed by the game, but they were still added to the record number.
 * They also broke the record of most team stars at the same time, with 88.250.
