Hmm, apparently coordination on team name suggestions needs to happen before filling out the survey. Perhaps not the intended incentives?

Team names off the top of my head:

  • Rat Team
  • Gray Tribe
  • Least Wrong Team
  • Bayesian Conspirators

Last two seem good to me

You may be right... I just need a rough headcount now, so if you want to take time to ponder the team name feel free to leave it blank now and then submit the form again later with your suggestion. (Edited the form to say so.)

The upcoming MIT Mystery Hunt will be all-remote, which presents an opportunity to form a widely distributed team for the LW/SSC community. The Mystery Hunt can be a lot of fun and is a great exercise in solving challenging problems. With enough people on the team we might even have a chance of winning!

If you think you might be interested please fill out the survey.
