Cool. Yeah, I don't think the app needs to do anything to grand... just take submissions and then randomly select one once a month and auto-post on the forum and list. I'll try and start a quick and dirty one tonight after homework is done =)
Any suggestions on what to call this? It's not a huge deal but mmb made a good point that "contest" isn't really applicable... he suggested "challenge" which sounds good to me. How should we format the subject line for the list notification email?... would [PatchChallenge] be a suitable identifier?
