This is a disbanded team. This was once an available team, but now has been removed. |

AMBASSADORS (previously known as Ambassadors, Adventurers, and *Ambassadors*), or [NTA], was a team formed on June 13, 2014, which was created and led by Molon. The original focus of this team was to represent all continents and countries.
History[]
In April 2015, the ownership of NTA was transferred to iloveshoes2 when they had 156,770 lifetime races by Molon's request. Molon then went inactive and was kicked shortly after.
On May 3, 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 one must enter their password in order to disband their team. 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.
On July 15, 2017, iDigDogs's shivtr account was heinously compromised by people claiming to have done so on behalf of NTA (i.e., Wohf). This attack had resulted in hundreds of leaked private messages due to aggressive phishing tactics abused by people associated with UltraType, where Wohf has since organized and leaked direct messages, who was then a frequenter in large-scale account scamming. It was unknown for months whether there was direct affiliation with the conductors of the phishing attack and NTA, but it was later revealed that Rrraptor was the person behind the hacking (with assistance from UltraType developers), "Wohf", and countless NTA trolls.
On August 10, 2018, Wildflower left NTA due to "personal reasons" and joined SSH instead. On August 17, more core racers left and also joined SSH.
On October 9, 2018, iloveshoes2 announced that NTA would no longer be competing in seasons, but that she would still be racing to be a billionaire. However, the team remained active.
On October 27, 2019, iloveshoes2 changed the team name from "Adventurers" to " *Ambassadors*".
On March 19, 2023, iloveshoes2 disbanded the team for an unknown reason; it may have been accidental for a glitch, as she has apparently contacted support to try and undo this. In the end, she created NTA3 known as New Team Adventure 3.
Methods of communication[]
The team has had two team websites: http://ntamolon.wixsite.com/ambassadors and http://ntambassadors.shivtr.com/, both of which are outdated, dormant, and no longer updated.
The team has also had three Discord servers. The first was pulled down by iloveshoes2 in which there were repeated incidents of her own members swearing, prompting a reactionary stance where iloveshoes2 attempted to take down the Discord links on the NT Olympics shivtr site, before having been ruled for attempting to surpass her authority and has since remained controversial. The second was deleted as it was run by Ryder, amidst controversy of DOG-skepticism due to vitriolic tensions prompted by NTA members. They have since made a third Discord, which is the one which is being used currently, and have voided much of the controversy it had in the past in regards to frequent raiding on behalf of the team.
