Rage

Rage is a team that participates in the MIT Mystery Hunt as well as a few other online hunts. Formed in 2014, the team was formed out of the remnants of Manic Sages after the team hosted the 2013 Mystery Hunt. Since their formation, they have placed in the top 10 in six Mystery Hunts. In hunts, their team name is usually a pun on the word "Rage".

History

Rage was formed in 2014. Many members previously hunted with Manic Sages, which disbanded after hosting the 2013 Mystery Hunt. The team's original name was "The Rage of the Quebecois", which was an inside joke that most team members did not understand, but was adopted because it was the only suggestion that no one disliked. The following year, the team was named "Metropolitan Rage Warehouse" after the MIT landmark, leading to the tradition of choosing a different rage-themed name every year. The similarity between "rage" and "sages" was unintentional.

Many members of Rage are alumni of Canada-USA Mathcamp or Carnegie-Mellon University.

Hunt performances

In 2020, Rage hunted as "This Rage Intentionally Left Blank".
