In past years, what was the rule on replacement teams on Einstein?

This is not true. The rule certainly existed last year. 177 was on Einstein with 201 and 1126. When 1126 ran into shooter problems, we considered replacing them with the captain of the highest seeded alliance from Galileo, 1625. Winnovation was as good as SPARX. In fact, had we substituted Winnovation (an extremely good scorer) for ourselves (an extremely poor scorer, but strong defensive robot), Einstein 2006 may have gone down very differently. But honestly, who wants to substitute themselves out of the championship? It would have given us a better shot of winning, but we wouldn't have been the winners.
The rule existed last year as well.
