I don't think taking turns would work, it would slow down the whole thing even further.
Rather, each team should have a number of games per round equal to the number of players on their team; each player is assigned to a game, and plays the whole thing out.

Ideally though, the idea of teams would be scrapped all together. This would be best as an individual effort. Right now it's like a team PvP. I think it would work better as battle league, but with connect 4.

Annele you took more than a full day without acknowledging anyone outside of your team. I honestly thought you had forgotten about the entire forum game. If you're going to take ten times as long to move as the average person, it is not unreasonable to expect that something is not right. While I would prefer individual Connect 4, your situation is not Jocko's fault.

I didn't say it was. It is the style of the game's fault. I thought, as it is a TEAM thing, that I should wait until someone responded to me before playing.

I don't think taking turns would work, it would slow down the whole thing even further.

Sure, but you did imply that Jocko's actions were not okay. "I would have been okay with this, but..." If you had intended to say that you were okay with Jocko's actions, you would have phrased your sentence quite differently.

Jocko pops up and does my exact move. I would have been okay with this, but then he plays 3 more times, putting us at in a bad position. No communication whatsoever.

You accused Jocko's actions of not being okay, and I defended him by saying that any problems that arose in your Connect 4 game were not Jocko's fault. My response is certainly pertinent.

I didn't say they weren't okay. All I said was that I wasn't okay with it, because I had misunderstood what 'team' meant in this Connect Four sense. I also said I wasn't angry with him, and that it probably happened a lot. I was just stating what happened. I know it is not Jocko's fault.

Apparently, we also need a player of Aether. And a third player for any team that doesn't have one.
