I say build it like you want it (and let us newbies have a chance at winning...). What's the prize anyway? Admiration from your peers? We all know a certain Scotsman with a certain Zeppelin is winning the internets this year, so screw the BSC and make a great looking piece of terrain!
(BTW give Gamer Mac the Nobel thingie. It's so good it pushed me to stop lurking and register.)
Yours truly,
Sir Dryden
