i am far from a l337 programmer, but i thought somthing like a scripting challenge would be cool.

like, you - staffers or whatnot give the contestants an objective for the script. then give them a language to use, or maybe a choice. then a deadline. choose the winners by however you want to judge them by. prizes or names listed on the main site, moderator/admin status (/jk), or whatever would be cool.

just thought i'd throw that out there.

really? think we have enough at least some kind of prog knowledge who would want to give it a shot, or wants to learn through this? i have a decent grasp on PHP, ASP.NET, and JavaScript. I think i'm pretty stinkin good with ColdFusion. but if you go with the free stuff (PHP, JavaScript) people may want to try it to learn.

i know we may not have people on the board, but what about visitors to the site?

A scripting challenge would be awesome, I personally think. Uranium235 is right, though; we have very few coders/scripters here. This could be a good way of getting some more knowledgeable people here.

it would have to be well publicized... but I disagree with the idea in that the average joe can't just start up a program and start coding, like I did with the other contest in just starting photoshop (and I'm prety noob at it.. )
