I'm trying to head out of town right now, Ryan or someone else, can you
do this and setup the contest...Ivo, can you update the contest wiki

To make a successful contest, just need good solid details on the start
and finish, who will judge, and the prize.

Crap, that Contests page needs to be updated too!
