Did not say that this was impossible. But I know about the logistics involved. I had got 35 T-shirts for my team and it was not easy co-ordinating with the vendor, getting the right quote, select the right quality and finally getting the sizes from the team members. I am not against the idea.

so, finally did your team get the t-shirsts?
at what price did you settle?

My thoughts about contest are like this:

• Last time we had a maximum poster contest. This was a success but also created nightmares and fights.
• I would like to keep the contest for new posts only.
• I would prefer to have the contest entries in one section only. After the contest is over, some of them could be moved to relevant sections. Even if this creates SEO issue, we could leave linkbacks so that the browser search will still lead to the correct URL.
• We should select a panel of fifteen to vote on the contest entry. These will be the judges. Judges will have to take the pledge to vote on every contest entry. I am willing to do the tallying up of marks at the end of the contest.
• Besides the judges, others could vote on the thread. Judges marks will count 75% and others' marks 25%.
• Contest entries to have minimum 100 words not counting common words like articles, prepositions, suppositions, etc.
• Excerpts of text copied from elsewhere (even if retyped) not allowed.
• No topics related to jokes, movie reviews, etc. We can expand the list with mutual consent.
• Heavy prize money to encourage participation. Top prize of Rs. 10K (?) with blessings from admin.
• No limit on entries per person.
• Judges may also participate but cannot vote on their own entry.
• Admin and Mods can revoke points or disqualify entry if it is felt that there is partiality.

The above are my suggestions. We can debate them, if we like.
