The revamped ACDG introduction can be found here. I've really only adjusted formating, to make everything neater and more readable.

Lynch: The CyCon are the Cybernetic Conciousness, if you're familiar with SMAX then you will know we are a race of humans who have implants, that remove our "emoitional foibles" and enhance our logic.
The CyCon is democratic. We have 4 positions, Prime Function (the turn player), Second Function (fills in for Prime Function), External Affairs Function (responsible for diplomacy and military units) and Internal Affairs Function (responsible for terraforming, crawling and bases). The positions are elected one a month. Basically, anyone who wants a position puts their name down for one, and if more than two people go for one, we hold an election for that position.
We write a newsletter called the Digital Data Download (shortened to 3D usually). I can find back copies for you. Usually some in game and some roleplaying stories, always fun to write.
We have most of the active players from the last DG, and so it's apretty vibrant community. The forum is the most used medium for discussion, but if immediate things are needed, we use chat or MSN messenger.
If you wish to join, click on the "join" link next to the private forum and I will authorise you to enter the forum (I'm the moderator of the private forum).

Thanks for the offer Drogue, but I already applied to the Drones. I PM'ed Buster at CGN a couple of days ago and applied here, but have yet to have a response. Could anyone help?

Is it possible to join University faction, and possibly then, as i understand, reactivate it as a team? I would like to join the ACDG and from the all factions that one seems most suitable

It isn't, I'm afraid. The PUT (Planet University of Technology) is now a closed faction, played as a PBEM. If you wish to join another research strong team, the CyCon are always open to new members  We have had 3 join in the last week, so you won't be the only one catching up on what's happened.
If you wish to, PM myself, and I'll authorise you tonight GMT (in about 4/5 hours) when I get home.

From one of those newly-joined, CyCon is a very nice faction. 
(and give free logic-circuit upgrades!)

is probably useful for people joining to see what the CyCon is like, and personally I'd prefer it to stay there. I wouldn't call that spam.

It seems this thread is doing its job, too. We now have as many people as the Hive to. Quite an impressive feat, considering our -1 growth.
