I'm sure this isn't a bug, and it's working as intended, but I have a suggestion for a fix I would really like to see changed/added.
Several times I have found myself leading a Task Force, having fun slaying the enemy with friends, only to crash. Due to either a poor internet connection on my part (Life in the Boondocks has it's ups and downs) or due to a Manifest.xml issue.
When this happens, leadership of the team falls automatically to the next person on the team. Typically this isn't a major issue, cause I'll just log back in, automatically re-join the team, and we mush on as is. But I have notice two issues sometimes arise.
1) The Leadership star has been passed to another person on the team, and they cannot pass it back til after the entire Task Force is finished.
2) The new leader may have their mission difficulty set to a different level, and suddenly we find ourselves facing mobs FAR higher than we ever would have wanted to.
I know the DEV team is sloshing through the endless mess of code created by someone else, but if you can find this game mechanic in the code and somehow 'fix' it so that the leadership star can be passed back to the original team leader, that would help solve if not completely elevate this issue.
Another option would be to make it so that once a Task Force is set in motion, the difficulty is set by the choices made by the original Team Leader, and regardless of where the star happens to go from there, the difficulty isn't altered. I don't really like this idea as much as the first, cause often I've found myself doing a Task Force, and needing to adjust the difficulty on the fly, or adjust it up or down based on the missions to come, or the team dynamics.
Just a though from a player that does an insane amount of Task Forces every week, and until my crash issue can be solved, have to constantly be weary of losing my leadership to someone on the team that may not want to lead, or is use to facing mobs and a much different level of difficulty than we intended to face on this particular Task Force.
Thanks for taking the time to read my rant... and keep up the great work!

Totally Random Task Force Marathon for December 2019
The bus will be back on the road this weekend, and adding more stops to the Marathon. And with 9 stops already 'blacked out' there are plenty of chances of a Re-Roll coming up. Each time a 'Blacked Out' stop is rolled, a random team member will receive 10 MILLION Influence!
On Sunday December 8th at Midnight, the Generator will reset, and all stops will be back on the list for the next week.

This sounds like a fun idea.
What happens when you spin Special? Is it the same as players choice?
SPECIAL is for Special Event TFs, Like Summer Block Buster, or Father Time, etc. I didn't add them to this normal list, since I tend to prefer to stick to the 8-man team events. And SBB is 4, and Father Time is larger than 8. But also didn't want to exclude these or other Holiday or special events.

EXCELSIOR!
You might have seen me posting from time to time something about "TRTFM". It's just a fun thing I will be doing from time to time. Here are the details and 'rules' I follow.
1) There is no set day, date of time for this. Basically when I have time to kill, and not needed by my SuperGroup or Friends for other things, I will FIRE UP THE BUS, and WARM UP THE DICE!
2) I have a randomizer that has nearly 50 possible outcomes which include almost every Task Force, Strike Force, Trail, and Event Quest. (No ITrials on this list, since the Bus only has 8 seats). It also has "Player's Choice" and "Special" as possible outcomes. On a Player's Choice result, another roll is made to pick a random team member who will get to choose ANY choice from the list.
3) When this event is underway, I will roll the dice for a random outcome. Then will fill any empty seats on the bus before starting the Quest.
4) Once a Quest has been done, it is "Blacked Out" til Sunday at Midnight when the Randomizer resets. If a "Blacked Out" quest is rolled before the reset, a DUPED roll will be announced in team chat, and another roll will be made to pick a random team member who will instantly win 10 Million Influence. As the week progresses the odds of DUPES coming up will increase, so join often, cause you might be the next winner!
5) After each Quest, if time permits, another roll will be made, at which time any in the party can choose to stay on the bus and go for another Event, Leave if they can't or don't want to do the next choice, or ALT to a character that might need that choice instead. Then any empty seats will be filled from those online.
6) We will always try to get any possible badges for every run. If a 'Master Of' badge is possible, only 1 attempt will be made to win it (No Restarts).
7) Any and All missions will be Rushed, Zerged, Ghosted, Stealthed, (Whatever you call it) to speed through the quests as fast as possible. Cause the faster they get done, the more stops the bus can make before the Driver has to pull over to the side of the road and get some sleep.
If you like this idea, keep watching chat channels for shouts out when the bus is running.
If you have already had a chance to ride along with me on one of these Marathons, I welcome you to post a reply with any PROS or CONS you experienced. Let me know what I've done that you enjoyed, or something that happened that you didn't like. This will help me improve this event for future runs, and give other players some idea of what they might encounter if they join in the future.
Thank you everyone, and I'll see you next time the Bus is Fueled up and Ready to Roll!

I was a founding member of the #1 Villain Supergroup on Infinity. StreetBound!
Together with my friend Stress, we quickly climbed the leader board, and held the top spot for quite awhile. Been trying to convince Stress to return to the game, but his attention seems to be with other games at this time. I'll keep chipping away at him, and maybe one day crack the ice.
My Main was: AWOL
Here is a clip copy/pasted from Fandom Supergroup Page...
Founded Oct 2005 (CoV release date) by Stress. First Super Villain Group to Build a Super-Base and do raids. Rank 1st Super Group on the Infinity Server. StreetBound had a one of a kind Super-Base with portal system to several different locations. It's unique base design had a lot of admirers from different servers.
