There are some crazy theories and assumptions based on faulty or just too little information about not only ARK but the Lisk communities inner workings, so I decided to give a quick overview of how the ARK team has formed and why. I tried to make it as factual as possible, correct me if you see a factual mistake.
At the very beginning of Lisk when the ICO just begun and people started to gather in Lisk Chat, malreynolds organized a group of people called Trusted Delegates. The TDs original goal was to find trustworthy Lisk supporters to run the Lisk delegate nodes. The initial the main effort was to exlude sockpuppets, people trying to run multiple delegates. For this reason the initial TD members were those with history on BCT and/or meaningful continuous involvement in Lisk chat. The group formed and as these things go, it got more organized, rules and guildelines were made, members supported each other, some members become inactive while others joined, a community was forged (pun intended).
And what an active community it was and still is. The private channel had many times the activity of all of the public channels combined, because it was such a good group of people that we all fealt comfortable talking in there even on subject that belonged to the public channels. Max, Oliver, Joel, isabella and fixcrypt were also in the channel for many months. They only decided to exclude themselves later on when we started concentrating on voting power because they felt -and rightly so- that discussion about our voting strategies should not include them.
This group stayed strong long after forging delays were announced throught the closing of the private channels in Lisk chat (our fault, sorry, we should have been more active in public channels), and remained very active, rebranded to GDT (Global Delegate Team).
The beginning of ARK were just some off and on brainstorming session on a remote slack channel (#sharktank, I think), that slowly grown by then (again) including fixcrypt who just parted ways from Lisk. Anyone from GDT was welcome to participate and many did. A new Slack was created with open invitations to all GDT members and those who joined now known as the ARK Crew, I think it was almost 50 members. Discussion continued and the most active from these group, those who at the time had the interest and the time to actively work on a new project became the Ark Founding Team that has 25 members.
So we didn't built such a big team from nothing, but formed from an already select and battle tested larger group. We didn't even assign former roles to each other we just contributed wherever we felt we could make the most of our abilities. We weren't all large holders who wanted to take over, or replace Lisk. We just had an idea in our daily interactions and we had the will, the time and energy to make it into a reality.
Today GDT is still by far the largest and best organized group in the Lisk community and still supports Lisk and includes most of the people who long time supporters, made tools for Lisk, run it's testnet and mainnet delegates. ARK members are still GDT members (amongst the most active members in fact), we are just sub group with a side project. Others has other involvement outside of Lisk, ours just more noticable being a Lisk fork and because of fixcrypt as a developer.
So any claims that ARK tries to overtake, replace, etc Lisk is just silly. Harming Lisk would be harming ourselves. Of course if you ask various members the exact interpretation of this statement may vary because we have different views on Lisk after 8 months of involvement, but that's just shows that ARK as a group has no agenda for or against Lisk. Individual members...you will have to ask them personally.
Please tell me more ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) nice story. No a whole lot else other than Max forced us to open our private room up to the public because like Vega said, our private room in the main lisk rocket chat that had x5 to x10 times the amount of talking as the public rooms at the rocket chat. Then one day out of the blue, we were told that we can't have any private voting alliance rooms anymore in their rocket chat. No if ands or butts, just nilly willy opened the room to the public so we all left and created our own private slack. Then the rocket chat died for basically months until just recently when max announced forging the DAY of the start of our TEC. We were just early to see the delays in Lisk because basically we've heard it from them almost since day one. You know without Fixcrypt, lisk mainnet would basically not have launched on time, and they basically kicked him from the group because of the same reason they can't find a developer right now, they don't want to pay what they need for the quality of coder they'll receive. I agree this is an accurate timeline. I am very proud of being in the TD and GDT groups - they are great people. Altho I am in the minority of GDT members who did not go forward into ARK (just too busy to keep up!) I certainly wish ARK well and think it is a worthwhile effort. That's why I agreed to escrow the ARK funds. My payment for that will be in ARK, which I will hodl. So even tho I am not a dev, I am a stakeholder. GO ARK !!!

We will thank you, it will be noted in the database, you will still see your expected ARK amount and we will let you know about the next step later, well before distribution begins.

In my dashboard it still says Amount of Arks you will receive 0 ARKS so maybe I should wait a day or two to see the balance when the OP updates the spreadsheet. What was the last price of ARK so we can estimate how much 1 ARK worth, or we don't know it yet?

In that case I'm pretty sure it doesn't matter if you click the button or not, bounties are not affected by the decision. Those amounts will be added manually at some point (or some are already are, not sure).

I'm supposed to receive 1039 ARK from the bounty that was before and I'm getting these numbers from the spreadsheet. What is left is the confirmation from the manger or OP but just want to be sure that I have to click on that button otherwise what happens if I click No, I prefer you fully refund me?

Cana, if I already send an email for the arkwinner and it has already counted?

Cana, if I already send an email for the arkwinner and it has already counted? If I replied back from winners@ark.io with how much you won then yes it is still valid. The bounties will only be on spreadsheet until closer to mainnet launch. In January we will make sure we have all the participant who won bounty give us their TEC address and we will add all your totals from all the bounties.
