I like this idea. Even more than my own. I feel that it would be good practice for people since they could shorten the code in many different ways. I also like it because the scoring system is not based on the personal opinion of the moderators, rather it is based on the fact of how many lines you made it to be. Now, if you could elaborate on your idea, like how the code will be managed and when it will occur, I think we have a winner, at least in my book. Heh.

    Well then... I guess the best way to tackle this is, someone who enters the contest gets a script to work on -- I'm not sure how we should do this, to each a different script or all the same, ideas? -- and when done, mails the new code some authorative figure (whom we shall name The CareTaker -- The Manager sounds too corporate ;). I guess this could be Vroom. When reviewed, the code should be posted up on a node for all to comment on.

      I think you should definitely give everyone in the contest the same script to "downsize" since then less scripts will be needed to be made and it is fair to the contestants since the script can be made shorter only so much, where different scripts will vary.
