Global Development Team additions

[Crono]

GDT needs to be more than just "lets try to help out servers and people every now and then!11" because honestly even I've been doing this on and off for years for random servers both public and private. GDT needs to be a real global team. They need to be able to pull off big tasks such as Graalympics with ease and excel in every aspect of development while being able to work together. This is a very high standard, imo, and reaching it will be quite difficult.

the current stated goals are easy in comparison to what the group could be contributing, though documentation is awesome

No they aren't, that is if you have any standards in quality. The first graalmypics was a bit of a mess, there was nothing after that. "We" tried to do one last year but the amount of work was too much for the 4 of us to handle.

two more graalympics were held after thyms, and although they were considered "unoffical" and had no global support whatsoever, they were still ran pretty well. the GDT could create the systems to make graalympics an annual event for all servers, but they don't seem to be aiming that high (for various reasons) which makes their current projects seem weak in comparison

imagine if you took the collective members of the GDT and had them create a new classic server, in whatever theme with whatever staff - it would have the most potential in terms of quality for a kind of graal revival project

the point being not that they should be making a server, it's that they should be focused onto some large projects with the benefit of all graal in mind (things like documentation) and focus less on the serverwide helpful-hand role. graal is small enough to have a team like the GDT focus in on single, big areas of graal and improve the quality overall. instead, they're being spread thin with little to no direction on what to help out with, or what to improve, making it less useful than it could be

Let's see if we can get this ball moving when I now am finally added to the team.
