New idea for Blogabond here, though not really related to the blogger import. I want to do an 8a.nu style scoring system for backpackers. Give points for days on the road, countries & continents visited, etc. Let users vote to give eachother extra points for tales of hardship and coolness.
Publish the rankings by year, trip, and lifetime. Declare champions, award prizes. Bring in the MySpace kids that want the world to recognize how cool they are. This idea worked wonders at 8a.nu, with climbers posting every detail about the climbs they've done and even fudging the details a bit to get extra points.
Should be easy enough to do. Most of the stored procderes are written already. Just gotta implement voting.
1 - day on the road
10 - country visited
50 - continent visited
5 - peer vote
100 point antarctica bonus?
