I like it... I think it could be a lot of fun... Would the winners be
determined by vote or will there be judges?
Perhaps there could also be another category.. Most creative,
unusual, or innovative use of parts (i.e. using various parts to
serve purposes that they're usually not used for).. I thought the
radar dishes, ladders, and fender pieces as an engine core
was creative, and I'd love to see more ideas as such come
out of this contest..

Actually, 20 isn't so bad if you consider that the crew will probably
work on a 3-shift rotation. If at any given time a third of the crew is
asleep, and a third is on-duty, it limits the need, even if only slightly.
