I think it'd be fun to have a "Site Council" challenge. Basically, it would only be open to the site council members. They'd all make their entries and everyone would vote on them.

Just a fun little gimmick.

How about an Administrator challenge?

It could be the first challenge in the history of the site to get no entries!

lol mk, at least you have an honorable mention under your belt, heck, even General has a few top 20 finishes. Highest place I have is 26th and that was my second challenge ever with only 185 entries. I'm pretty sure that brown would be mine...but at least I'd have competition. :p

So I "don't" need to have a ribbon in order to be on the SC?

Great idea! And to make it REALLY interesting, why not select a few regular people to be honorary site council for this one challenge to oversee them. Talk about a role-reversal.

(ok, maybe I'm getting a bit carried away now)

No fair, now when I finally qualify for a master challenge you talk about a 1 ribbon challenge :) What ever happened to those? I remember there was a master free study about the time I joined this site and then an impressionism one but are these just no longer done?

Heck, make it real interesting. If any DQ requests are made they'll be reviewed by the following temp. SC (GraphicFunk, LegalBeagle, theSaj, RiponLady, Hokie). This way, in case all of the photo entries stink...the debate should at least be entertaining. ;)

Hey, this could be a good way to make things interesting. The lowest score is bumped. And the highest score becomes the uber-Council member.

:P

I think an SC challenge would be fun to watch. The other implemented ideas are nonesense, though. Ribbons are ribbons, that's all there is to it.
