CreationWiki response:

Since some types of single cell organisms do form colonies, it is agreed this is at best a weak argument. However, the bridge between single cell and multi cellular organisms is more than the number of cells but the fact that different cells take on different functions despite having the same genetic code and actually function as a single entity.
