In addition to FN's hint, I'll just say that you'll be doing 2 things that have never been done on a roller coaster before, and leave it at that.
no offence, cjd, but i really hope not your are not the one judging the coasters this time....not the complain about the content, you're a damn good rater, at least no one-liner, but you rate with the speed of the continental plates...if you get what i mean
as for contest ideas here a some:
1. the "adopted-duel" contest: take or create a ride, leave the supports, put terrain in and let the participant create the nemesis, the dueling side...easy rules, difficult contest...
2. the "hyyyper's-backyard" contest: template of 100x50m, height 6-25meters (gforces vert:-2...+5.5 lat:-2...+2)...
3. the "save-the-rain-forest" contest: a little like the treetop but this time supports should be a wooden bar from tree-to-tree to support you ride...
4. the "formula-1-speed-test" contest: you get a launch of 100kph (60mph) into an optional tophat, after that there will be a height limit of 15 meters and the speed may no go lower than 40 kph untill the final brakes...
