I think Connect 4 fails with teams. Though I tried as soon as I was able, it was at least 5 turns until my partner started talking to me. And the, right when I was about to be able to DO something, 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.
But I am not angry with either of them. This has probably happened a lot. I just think that only 2 people should be involved in a game of Connect Four - the two opposing players. This would make everything run much faster.
