I object 
Other disadvantages:

* Two people, two senses of humour, not necessarily compatible.
* Two people, twice the ideas = Arguments on where the story should be going.
* Two people = twice as many people who can quit
* Two people = twice as many people who can not feel like DMODing at the moment

And the list goes on from there.

I appreciate you looking at the bright sides but in reality there are a lot of problems with making a DMOD with more than a single person, especially if you only work online. I won't deny that there are quite a few benefits in working together, but historically it has never really worked out. Multiple group projects were started but none of them have produced anything noteworthy, except perhaps an article. This is to a large part due to the technical difficulties in working on a single map file. You usually have only a single map file between two people so only one person can work on it at a time.

Now a well set up project might overcome these difficulties, but so far it hasn't really ever worked out...
