Anyone who thinks that they're capable, I'd be happy for them to do it and I'd offer my support so that they get off to a good start. That's if Moondog doesn't reply. I think with his current situation, I'm sure even if a temporary team to replace him will be a favour whilst he is figuring things out.
But we'll see if Moondog makes his post.

I used to do that, the image would appear in the stickied thread, so anyone who went there saw it...but people generally needed to go to that thread once or twice to get the main jist of what is going on and they'd read the other threads for the current themes and restrictions. - So they'd have no real reason to visit that thread. So I didn't think it was much of an incentive for people to participate.
I thought the newsletter would work because a) It advertises it more so to the rest of the forum b) More people will see the results and people will want to participate more, I mean seeing your work in the newletter is something people might like. -It'd give them something to work for more and of course getting more modellers interested and trying hard -> which is what the challenges need and so do the modellers. (Going back to the main philosophy of the challenges when I started them - To help the 3D community improve upon their modelling skills)
At least that's what I think. But I'm still listening for other thoughts, so don't worry.
Even if Moondog returns, I'd still be happy to do this. I'll write up a draft using 3 previous challenges and post up to see what people think.
