icon Minorities rock! (+2)  
I've just come up with an interesting contest idea that's too small to be made into a serious contest and I'd like to test it out.

The rules are simple, there are 4 groups, and at each round you select a group, of which the people in the smallest group is kept and the others are eliminated. This continues until there are only 8 people left, where it then becomes 2 groups.
The group of them which is the least becomes the winner.

You are allowed to say whatever you want, its pretty hard to cheat in this contest. Considering that the prize is 2 rank points, stacking the contest will also be more time than its worth.

Who's up for it?

Edit: The submission topic, a place where only I can see your entry, is now up. link

I will give it a try. Is this a contest, or is it more of a game?

I'll play - I assume you will be revealing the process for grouping people after the contest has already begun :)

Sure, why not. I'm in.

If over half the forum joins in, can I drop out and declare victory?

Ooops, I knew I missed something. You will choose the group that you're in.

@jbluestein: well it has a final winner, so I'd classify it as an unofficial contest.

Just pointing out that the link in the first post still goes to the first "submission topic."

Ok... Seen as how many people are wanting to participate in this idea, it strikes me that everyone who *doesn't* will be in the minority and hence win.
