Congratulations on an almost unworkable idea, but perhaps a varitation could work. My suggestion is to slightly hinder the teams, in a way that they benefit from cooperating their skills. How? Well, here is the briefing: 1. Team members can help each other as much as they like. 2. The best submitted solution counts. .... and then the crunch... 3. The first working solution must be posted within 24 hours for the team to be valid. 4. No submitted working solution can be more than ten characters different from another working solution of that team. .... why is this better? It encourages many alternative approaches to be tried, and we get to see them. It increases the effort required, and the difficulty whilst making working as a team beneficial. There can be mad dashes at the end to get a superior solution submitted. Perhaps PGAS might even accept them as "Correct, but different by XX characters from closest solution" How does this sound?
