In short, factions or projects that revolve strongly around the idea of interacting with another individual group generally do not do well in Discovery.
However, here's the rub. There's very little to stop you from not simply doing it. But I don't suspect that you'll find much success in a broader sense.
Rather I would suggest that you take the core idea of what you would like to accomplish and see how it might be applied in a way that allows for a broader scope of entertainment for yourselves and the community as a whole and see how it might be integrated in with the infrastructure currently in place within Discovery.
