I'm down.
Will there be room for Pain Dom Corruptors?

I can't speak for the OPs plan and whether or not Pain Corrs are fair game, but Pain doesn't entirely match up to the awesome buffs that make the green machine so powerful.|

Painbringer does give great +regen and +rec, but no +recharge, especially not on the magnitude of Adrenaline Boost. That and the lack of auras. With 3 Pain Corrs with World of Pain you could probably res-cap to most damage types and you'd all be pretty sturdy with the regen buffs.
An interesting idea actually. Would just mature way later than Green Machine since they start rocking at 12 with Fortitude.

What about a half Pain Dom/ half Emp team? You can even toss MMs into the mix.

Like I said in the original post, the team only needs three Empaths to be potent, so there will be five open slots. An extra three Pain Doms would be quite interesting to have, though, because, as Silas said, they would give us about 50% more resistance to everything (I think, I'm not very informed on Pain Domination) and another ~50% damage buff. To be able to team, though, we'd have to wait until the co-op zones or until Going Rogue.|

Edit: It would take five Pain Corruptors to cap us to everything with just World of Pain. Four would put us ~5% shy of the cap. I just checked Mids'. Also, I didn't realize that you'd have to go for outside +Recharge to get World of Pain perma. Looks like you need ~75% persistent +Recharge to keep World of Pain perma. A bit off-putting for me, personally.

With good recharge slotting in WoP itself, you only need about 70%, assuming you don't take Hasten. If you take Hasten you can go with even less. It's really not a big deal, considering you'd want upwards of 50+ recharge anyway for your blasts and Painbringer.

Excellent. I'm logging in now to send you a global invite. I've gone ahead and made my Empathy Defender, told Mebs he could do the same if he'd like.

Little late to the party, I know. 
But I'd be interested in this, sounds like an fun idea.
I already have a 50 Empath 'fender but I'd be willin' to reroll for this.
Go from Archery to Sonic maybe, and it would be somethin' to do, other then farmin' and RWZ Raids, while I wait for August 17th. 
I *think* I have your global DK, not 100% sure though, hit me up next time you're on and we can sort somethin' out (if you'll have meh )
@iBud
If Silas was dead he would roll over in his grave, however, I might be willing to work with this Emp idea (even moreso if we could add in the other side's options later). Is this going to be a static team as well as an SG setup and when would we run it?

So far, it has been spontaneous. Right now, I'm helping everyone get their Empaths to 12 in order to skip the painful, Fortitude-less levels. In related news, I'd like to see when everyone can play on the team. Scheduling times seems like it might be more effective. I'm free pretty much any time except early morning, so just let me know.|

The current people I have are:
Myself (@Demon Keeper),
@Smurphy (will be dual-boxing),
@Mebs,
@MILLION / @MILLIONDOLLAR,
@iBud,
@Myrmydon,
@Panzerwaffen.
You guys are encouraged to send each other global friend invites in case you'd like to team up without me (I won't be offended, I promise).
Go ahead and include me in this. I'll make one tonight.

IIRC, there isn't anythin' goin' on your Saturday nights, which is Sunday for me (Someone correct me, if I'm wrong.)
So anytime after 8pm EST is good for me. 
Saturday night works.

look me up, global is @Lightening Rod.
Alright, let's give Saturday night a shot, around 8 p.m. EST.
Any room left on this? I've always wanted to try an all-Empathy team...

With Smurphy's dual-box toon, we have eight; I'll see if he doesn't mind playing just one toon like us normal folk.|

Edit: Actually, @GATTACA just gave up his spot. I'll update the roster; what's your global?

Awesome! My global is the same as my forum name.

Interesting concept. with my work schedule, i dont get home until 745pm PDT so that probably am out on this. But I am a sucker for static teams. I'd say add me as the 8th spot if i'd even be able to get home in time to participate. And even so, i'd only be able to play mon tues and thurs. maybe the occasional fri night. oh well. have fun with this. sounds crazy.

edit: reading the rest of the thread... i already have a static team sat night have fun guys.
Just finished our first session. The team consisted of myself, @Panzerwaffen, @Myrmdon and @Smurphy. Panzerwaffen and I were at 12, Myrmydon at 1 and Smurphy decided to roll a new toon after two missions. We kept runnin' missions 'til Smurphy's toon hit 10, then we did the first half of Positron. I ended up at level 19, Panzerwaffen at 18, Myrmydon at 15 and Smurphy at 13. Fun was had by all, I think. We're running again tomorrow afternoon, 'round 4:30p.m. EST. If anyone else can make it, that'd be great.
I didn't think anything would ever make Empathy fun to play but it was fun earlier.

Hey guys. I hope you're gearing up for Saturday. I'd like to do the second part of Positron and, if there is time, Synapse. I'd love to see how Dr. Vahzilok and Clockwork King stand up to all of our Sonic blasts.
I'll be in unless my connection is dead.

If it sounds odd to you, you haven't heard of the Repeat Offenders' Green Machine super group. If you get the chance, look them up. The tl;dr version of it is this, though: Three Empathy Defenders can soft-cap each other, run around with a 115% damage buff and have nigh-unlimited endurance at 22. They can have actual unlimited endurance (and capped regeneration) at 33. They can all achieve perma-Hasten with minimal IO investment (~10% recharge bonus needed).
I am only one guy, unfortunately, and I can't dual box (much less triple-). So I need two more people. Additionally, I'm terrible at "stuctured" playtime. I just know that I have a lot of time and don't have too much to do before Going Rogue comes out. So, the mini-Green Machine will be a very flexible miniature super-team. If/when two (or more) people who decide they're interested, we'll all exchange globals and team when possible. If I'm on, I'm either PuGing, on a TF or solo. So two out of three times, I'll be able to drop everything to grab my Empathy (if I'm not already on it).
I only have four requirements (as far as powers are concerned): Fortitude, Recovery Aura, Regeneration Aura and Adrenalin Boost. Everything else is optional.* And because we only need three to become gods, we can fill the other five spots with whatever we like, if we choose to do so.
So, uh, drop me a line here, in a PM or in-game if you're interested. I don't care too much about levels; you don't even need to start a new character.
* There are some powers that are very highly recommended, though. And please, please, please get some ****ing attacks.
Edit: I'm stupid. My global in-game is @Demon Keeper. (No period)
