So it seems like this topic was significantly less popular than the last, and I suppose I take responsibility for that; it was my suggestion.

That said, have we given much thought to the next topic, since this contest is in its last week or so? Maybe it should be broader than my suggestion(s).

I'd also like to suggest that the next contest not be nearly 2 months long; I feel like that huge length of time negatively impacts interest and passion for the contest. Maybe that's just me, though.
