Thanks everyone for your input. I'm definitely going to consider this as we have a few interested people. Let's see in the next couple of days if we get some additional interested participants and we can craft the rules and I can draft up the contest.

6/5 Updates

Once again, thank you everyone for your feedback. It's much easier to answer your questions/concerns in 1 comment rather than commenting on everyone's post individually.

Updates:

1. The contest would be in a science, technology, engineering, or math subject. Things like Health fall under Science so it would qualify. The topic within these areas will be completely open meaning you can choose anything you'd like as long as it falls within one of these main categories.

2. You would not be required to post something technical. For example (please don't use this example), if you wanted to post on automation in the workplace and its effects on unemployment, you would not need to post on how to create/displace jobs with automation. You could just post on the pros/cons of automation

I'm still working through prizes and judging criteria. It may be hard to do this weekly unless we can get it to be self-sustaining where the upvotes we receive fund the prize pool.
