So we will start the assault soon now that we have Leaders!
I would suggest the Leader sending a Personal Message to the member of the team that is up for expansion or tag them in a post.
Handle your team however you'd like, I plan on using the Personal Train Expansion Sign Up List thread as a place to keep my "who is up" list.
Feel free to do the same, you can edit your own post Leaders.

Just want to make something clear, Jon, and have posted it in Admin.
As Karen has, I too have hired Tom for 5 days and am getting bars from him. I am using them to expand right now but will keep the ones I make in my smelters for the assault. If this isn't fair to our 3-person team, I will drop out until Tom goes back to sleep after my time is up. No jewelry-making for me for the time being, just keeping the bars that we need.
I hope this is okay, Jon.

Jon! Please read and comment! If we have self-expanded to a particular level, shall we wait until our entire team is all on the same level? As I said in two other threads, I am using what I get from Tom for myself but am saving what I make or find for the team. Is this fair or satisfactory? If I were to be up first, I would skip until you and Mum and I are all on the same train level. Does this make sense to you and Mum? I think it's fair.

We are in teams, we can do whatever we find fun. If you would like for Mum and I to catch up, You can do that just tell us. If you don't want to use Tom fetch bars, that's cool too. Let's just have a good time. I am level one and need five of each. That will be my turn. If you need ten of each, so be it. My smelters are running, well I could use more ore, but my point is if and when I got it, the person expanding gets it.
You all know I do not have a lot of time on the weekends. I will check in and read here. I will pass what I have to who is up and keep the train moving as fast as we can. Ore will be a problem so if you have extra I can process that would help.
The short and long answer is, I do not know, LOL. Thoughts?

What if you decided that for the time being, every turn is 5/5/5? Then if Ann needs more since she's already in a higher level, Ann may need 2 turns to upgrade from the assault. But it would keep it fair, I think? Everyone gives what (s)he can find and make but not Tom's, and everyone receives the same amount of bars for a turn.

I am going to Canada on tuesday and will be away for two weeks. So I'll not be playing much, and am out for the time being.
If anyone can spare me any bars when I get back and you are all upgraded that would be fine and dandy please.

I am trying to wrap myself around the concept of forming teams to upgrade the personal caboose. If I upgrade at lightening speed and have 5 or 10 more peeps I can pick up, what do I do with them if my buildings cannot accommodate their needs or my town hall says I am maxed. I will basically have a bunch of ill-tempered little people with no place to go. Should we not be concentrating on upgrading Town Hall to accept these little peeps and buildings to service them. Help me embrace this concept Jon!!!

we each are upgradings our buildings as we go little by little and having a bit of team trading going on to help eachother. But yes if you do not have the room then it would only make sense to skip your upgrade since you cant hold more people. But to atleast get everyone up and going will help everyone out a bit since friends visitors only need 1 building to go to.

Lola, i currently have five empty building slots because i do not have enough visitors. If I could pickup your expended visitors, I would not have idle slots. More visitors, more new expansion material. More material, and trading, upgrade townhall, building slots and regular train capacity.

I'm good to go with Tom in our am! All free diamonds... Happy to do whatever! All for fun to me! And, I think we squared some stuff away in chat.... Should we have our own team thread? Or should we be all together creating fun chaos? I think our own thread, in addition to chiming in on other team threads might be fun for all! Get forum members cheering for us!!!! Lol

So..... This won't work.
If Mum and Ann have Tom for the weekend, you sure as hell don't need me.
I believe Tom is the White Elephant in the room. Who invited him anyway? LMAO!
I know how it works. You invite a friend, who invites his friends. They invite their friends, next thing you know..... Tom is at your party...

Jon!?!? No Tom bashing so soon! Let's see how it works for a week!
Well, I still have Ann... So far.. That is...
And I hired Tom at 4:00 am. Let's coordinate what we are needing? I just ordered jelly beans. I have enough bars to go to level 4. let's not get all the same bars so we can mix and match as needed.
Urgghh... After all that team bonding!!!!! Lmao.
Kk, it's our red button strategy to make the other teams feel we are weak, and that our train is running out of steam. And, then we strike! A great offense is a secret great defense!

I personally can go to level 4 now for the personal train because I hired Tom two nights ago. I like Karen's idea of each of us taking only 5/5/5 at a time whether we need 5 or 10 of each. We will all get there eventually. I do have the problem of thinking about having a big, ole train with lots of people and no places to send them due to few slots in each building. We need open slots as much as we need a bigger personal train. Is this a case of putting the cart before the horse, or in this case the train before the slots in the buildings? I always have people milling around because they have nowhere to go due to filled slots. They don't all disappear until sent away or have finished with the buildings they request. This may need to be rethought on a team-by team-basis. I missed whatever was worked out in chat, but I am having reservations about a big train and no slots in my buildings. I am also conflicted because even though we may need only a few BEM to help enlarge a slot, a few BEM here and there can reduce what is available for barns. Of course, I'm coming from the place of finding few BEM anyway and don't feel right using them to expand my slots. Dilemma! Quandary! Conundrum! For me at least. Yes, indeedy. Team Trainwreck may have wrecked before ever leaving the station!

Ann, I think everyone should feel free to use those few BEM to upgrade your town buildings. If we all do that, it's not unfair to anyone. If you're out of BEM and need a few to upgrade a building, just ask who has them for you
