History
Death and Mayhem was formed from a merger of Death from Above and Project Electric Mayhem (a Fight Club and Muppets reference), two teams with MIT East Campus ties. The team also has strong ties with MIT's CSAIL (Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory) program, and typically hunts from their headquarters in the Stata Center. For hunt management, the team uses an in-house framework called Jolly Roger.
