[Hunt03] MIT Mystery Hunt 2004
Information about the 2004 MIT Mystery Hunt is already online (yes, it is
only September).
Most importantly, the registration page includes vital information about a
controversial (not as much as the California Recall but more controversial
than the inclusion of J in the alphabet) issue regarding the hunt.
The main page:

The controversial issue: (from the registration page)

If you are registering for the 2004 Hunt, we need to know:
1.. A name for the team
2.. Contact email for the team
3.. Whether or not your team would like to accept unattached hunters into
its ranks.
4.. Where you will be reachable during the MIT IAP Mystery Hunt (Phone
number and location are requested)
Teams should have a minimum of five people with at least one MIT student.
Optimal size is at least 10-15 team members, with plenty of MIT student
participation.
If you don't have a team, please let us know whether or not you'd like us
to
put you on a list of unattached hunters.
If you do not know all of this information yet, don't worry. However, we
will need to know it by the time the competition starts

After the last hunt, the issue of teams with few MIT students was
raised...Snafufans being of course a pretty glaring example. Above is
open-ended, so we may see further constraints, or we may run into
difficulty
with "plenty of MIT student participation", but nothing yet says "no 30+
teams with only 1 student" in big bold letters.
P.S. The front page includes a nifty "themes we rejected" generator that
appears to change with each page reload.
