i'm having a hard time coming up with ideas for events, so far i've got -- starting up an apache server (speed contest) -- the 100, 500, 1000 yard printer cary -- configuring a router i'm sure yosposters have some good ideas. keep in mind that part of the intent of these events is to entertain and dazzle the audience, so they need to be fun to watch.

Each competitor picks up a telephone and someone yells at them about how a computer isn't working. A bottle of alcohol is placed at the center of the arena and the last one to take a drink wins.
