TopCaliber Teams Bot

This Discord Bot allows for creation of teams between players in a discord server. When a team is created, the team is given a category channel with a default list of channels. The bot keeps track of the members of the team, and uses this information to maintain access to these channels. If all members of a team leave, the channels are deleted.
