## Captain of NTA

### Creation

For most of the team's history, iloveshoes2 was the captain of team NTA. However, the captain of the team was formerly Molon. In April 2015, the ownership of NTA was transferred to iloveshoes2 by Molon's request. RRR1 and NTA are the only teams to have done this in NT history. Molon then went inactive and was kicked shortly after.

### First disbanding

On 3 May 2017, iloveshoes2 disbanded the team. Other racers claimed the team tag "NTA" and the team name, "Ambassadors". iloveshoes2 contacted the admins to disband/edit the teams that took the tag, and she eventually got the team tag back. Oddly enough, she never got the team name "\*Ambassadors\*" back, so it was renamed to "Adventurers". iloveshoes2 claimed that she accidentally disbanded the team, although this is unlikely due to the fact that you have to enter your password to disband teams. However, it can be assumed that she had no motive to disband the team on purpose, so how it was possible to accidentally disband the team and/or why she would disband it on purpose remains a mystery.

### Changes

On 9 Oct 2018, iloveshoes2 announced that NTA would no longer be competing in seasons. However, the team remained active and easily in the top five on the leaderboards. On 27 Oct 2019, iloveshoes2 changed the team name from "Adventurers" to " \*Ambassadors\*".

### Second disbanding

On 19 March 2023, NTA was disbanded. The reasons for this remain a mystery; iloveshoes2 has stated she did not realize she had disbanded a team until later, and it is likely the disbanding of NTA was a glitch. iloveshoes2 apparently contacted support to regain NTA shortly after it was disbanded to regain the team, but nothing has come of it. Shortly after NTA was disbanded, a former team member, Beagle, took the tag, and he remains as the captain. On 4 April 2023, iloveshoes2 rejoined the team, along with a host of former members, and shortly thereafter was promoted to officer. It is uncertain as to whether iloveshoes2 has any plans of recreating the team if Beagle disbands it.
