Just for your consideration...
What about a competition for who is judged as having the best solution for meeting some preparedness / survival requirement, with consideration on its original design and DIY ingenuity and not just on the amount of money it might have cost to purchase it. Best GHB, FAK, BOL, BOV, outhouse, or whatever. Original pics and functional/detailed descriptions are required to be considered, and any Getty or Shutterstock (or Amazon/Ebay) images posted will earn the poster a lifetime ban (
).
But instead of awarding the prize to the winner, the winner has to choose which other contestant in the contest thread will receive the prize. This way it encourages more people to enter no matter how well designed or thought out, or basic/advanced, their solution is and the person that might need the prize the most might win it. Win-Win, bragging rights for the winner and the prize goes to who might need it most.
