confused How do you take over a team or replace a team leader?

I'm a Computer Science student at the University of Oregon and found out about the World Community Grid through a book we use in class (Java: How to Program Ninth Edition)

Since I leave my home computer on all the time, I thought I might as well put it to work for a good cause.

I looked for a team, specifically a University of Oregon team, and there exists one with the name University of Oregon. There are supposedly 8 members on the team, but nobody on the team has been online since May of 2012. I tried to email the team leader, but the team leader did not opt into receiving emails from team members.

So basically, I'm the only member of this team. I wanted to know how I could take over as leader of this team. The team is just a couple points shy of one million. I don't really want to make a new team since I would like to revive The University of Oregon team and promote it at the University.

Do you even really need a team leader? Should I just promote the team anyway and just let it go on without a team leader?

Re: How do you take over a team or replace a team leader?

thanks! By the way, how did you find that thread? I tried using the forum search to find a result, but always came up with a list of unrelated results. Is there a trick to finding something specific? If I search "Team Leader" and put it in quotes, I still get results of either just Team or Leader but not both. So I'm not doing it right.

Re: How do you take over a team or replace a team leader?

Hello glennhanna,
team AND leader. Use AND OR NOT. This really exasperated me in the early 1980's when I switched from Unix to PC-DOS. Searches are important and should allow regular expressions, etc. But the world pays no heed to my opinions.

Poor world wink ,
