Default How about Fort Building Contests?

Since the main thing that makes SourceForts unique is the fort building, I thought there should be Fort Building Contests. How about 1 per month? Starts on the 1st of the month and ends 5 Days before the end of the month, and the winner is announced at the end of the month.

I know that there has been contests like this before (2 that I have found topics for), but not like what I have planned.

Rules:

1. Unlimited Blocks
2. Fort must be built to Contest Description. Forts may not be complete forts. They may be parts of forts such as sniper towers, walls, entrances/exits, flag d's, etc.
3. Must be done on the map specified.
4. Must enter the contest during the 5 days before contest start (during judging of the previous month).
5. A .sav file of the fort must be submitted to the judges.
6. You may partner up with some people, but specify who you are when entering, and no more than 4-person teams.
7. Must be functional
8. Doesn't have to be built in stock building time (would be way too hard to regulate this unless if we have dedicated servers)
I think that these could be modified a bit, but it's a start.

For this to work I need:

1. Judges - these people must have played SF for a while, and cannot be noobs

So what do you guys think about this?? If we end up doing this every month which is what I have planned, would it be possible for the forum admin to make a seperate section for contests so we can keep them all in one section and not clutter up another section of the forum?

if you want people to enter in a contest you need a prize for the winner or top 3 winners.

Just remember...that was last year...we've had a big increase in SF players since then

edit:

So how about this for people to run it:

1. Judges
2. Contest Designers (the people who think up of ideas for the contests)
3. Prize Designers (people to think up of prizes for winner)
