Since 2017, they have run 4 iterations of the online Galactic Puzzle Hunt, as well as BAPHL 11.

History

✈✈✈ Galactic Trendsetters ✈✈✈ first originated as an MIT Mystery Hunt team based in the 3W floor (also known as floorpi) of MIT's East Campus dorm.[1] They competed under the names Operation Catbus in 2011 and Occupy Leisure Station in 2012, eventually naming themselves after Galactic Trendsetters, a card in the board game Race for the Galaxy.

In other hunts, subteams of Galactic often use the name [pi] or floorpi, in reference to the dorm name. Additionally some teams compete under variations of the Galactic name, often with six emoji and a name connected to the hunt theme.

Trendsetters are also a sister team to teammate, having previously hunted together in the MIT Mystery Hunt until 2017. teammate split off and formed a separate team in 2018.
