You may replace with anyone who is not currently on a Team Mafia team,
has not previously been on a different Team Mafia team
, is and has not been part of the Team Mafia Organizing team (Moderators, Balance-checkers, players in tiebreak game), and is eligible to play in mafia games. However, only 4 people may be involved in the PT at any time. A replaced team member may not participate in any way unless they are replaced back in.

Not to be rude but kawaii i feel like you've been replaced out of like your last 3 or 4 games. At some point you have to have some responsibility to actually play the games you sign up for.

Given that it was back when the site was a little more active it was first come first serve for joining the event and multiple people were refreshing the thread waiting for it to unlock so they could immediately enter. Some of them submitted after the atlas shrugged entry which caused them to have to scroll through the entire text to submit in the preview window.

I don't remember if anyone actually didn't get to play because of this or not.
It was chesskid and the team ended up being named "Who is John Galt". The event did have people who didn't get to join right away, but also so many force replaces and permabans that anyone who wanted to play probably got the chance anyway. It was, speaking as one of the people responsible for running it, a colossal shitshow.
I think it was Kagami who initially submitted the name (indeed as a reference to the MIT Mystery Hunt) as the very first team signed up, but otherwise all very true.
It was indeed! It was a first-come first-serve, so I had written a script to post immediately upon the thread unlocking with a team name consisting of the entire text of Atlas Shrugged, as an homage to the MIT Mystery Hunt 2013 team. I happen to be an MIT alum and perennial MITMH participant. The use of a script was not explicitly forbidden, but no doubt would have been frowned upon; I had not at all considered the havoc it would wreck on the other posters (especially mobile users) caused by the "activity you may have missed" feature. I had performed tests in a private channel and found that a number of books written by less terrible authors would have length issues, so I went with the original.

Like our MIT counterparts, we won that year.

Nice to see you back, Kagami!
Amid the pressure of great events, a general principle gives no help.
