This is a normal post Why not:
Pick one of 270, remove it, pick one of the remaining 269, remove it, etc.?
No need to limit each to a particular square.

This is a normal post Because
Ideally, yes, but this was way simpler to code and I'd already wasted most of Saturday making 270 single-use jpgs of doomed Conservatives and fighting HTML's unwillingness to scale images nicely.

Btw, if anyone wants to do a better back-end they're welcome to the jpgs. It would be good if the cards were generated with unique permanent URLs and you could click to toggle a big "X" on each picture to mark them off on the night, but that was well beyond my coding skills.

This is a normal post For my needs (which is a communal drinking game)
I just refreshed until who I wanted was on the screen, saved that image, rinse repeat until I had all the favourites, then generated a random set, saved it as a PDF, loaded that into photoshop and chopped in the ones I wanted. Then I had one card with all the 'best' ones on, like Mogg, Sunak, Patel, Braverman, Hunt, Francois, Shapps and printed that off lots of times to give to everyone. When one of them loses a seat, everyone drinks.

I still love it as it is, it's awesome
