heh. cut me off a little. to continue:

Who will score?
I dunno. someone with linux installed, and a relatively good machine, preferably vroom, or someother high up. he doesn't have to really judge, just start a script to compete the subroutines.

when will submissions be viewed
the contest will last some predetermined time, such as 1 week, 2, or a month(it may be difficult). as soon as it is done, no more entries willbe accepted, and the entrants will be posted. the scoring will take place the next day or over the course of a few days (depending on the amount of scripts, and the length each takes).

the winning subroutine gets mega XP!!!!!
