Re: Solutions for No Shows

I like the "placebo" solution Mike described.

One of the key aspects in my mind is that any replacement method should never allow for an alliance to gain from using the replacement over the original team. This basically eliminates any selection from the other teams in the competition. The described placebo would be worse than any working robot, but significantly better than a sitting duck trailer.
