Enter trial already in progress.
JIP isn't for rejoining if they lose connection. They should use the Rejoin option. If they were kicked by a team leader or league leader by accident, JIP MAY be able to get them back into the trial, but only if the criteria are met for JIP to function.
JIP, as it was explained by the Devs during testing, allows someone new to join a BAF or Lambda if it drops below the minimum number of players required to start it. If the trial is above the minimum, no new players get added.
If the game spit out 20 dollar bills people would complain that they weren't sequentially numbered. If they were sequentially numbered people would complain that they weren't random enough.

It would make more sense if JIP allowed ANY player to join as long as the trial was below the MAXIMUM.
But I've stopped expecting things to make sense in several areas of my life. It only leads to disappointment.

Not necessarily stupid. If someone using the Join in Progess to fill a trial after someone dcs, how does the person who dcs rejoin their trial after they get back in?

Right.
Join in progress = Join a league that lost members and is now under the minimum.
Rejoin last event = as advertised.
JIP is not the best mechanic and not working as one would think. I suggested already a 'super-minimum' where an iTrial would try to fill before resorting to the minimum. So, e.g., a Lambda, minimum 8, would try to put together a group of 12, and JIP would fill up to 12, but, if none available, would still run at 8.

If JIP allowed players to enter a trial ABOVE the minimum player threshold, there needs to be a check somewhere to DISALLOW it.
I'm with most people when most of the time, I want a couple people to fill the last spots... but there are times when I DO NOT WANT more people in the trial, especially random players who don't know the gameplan.

I''d suggest that locking teams could be used for that Virusman, if LFG were to be changed.

It doesn't work. In the LFG tab it has a check that should allow you to enter a trial already in progress. But it doesn't work. I was running a BAF and lost a few members for several different resins. I suggested that they use the join in progress to reenter the league but it didn't work.
