I had this though of a major lemmings contest that has a lot of trophies in store
as well as other things
for the neolemmix player that could come from this contest i have designed a logo for but you can take a whack at making one yourself if you want
the trophies idea they go like this
Pillar Trophy - 1st Place
Metal Trophy - 2nd Place
Bubble Trophy - 3rd Place
Special Trophy - Best special level
Painter skill Trophy - Best art using an Original/LPlus tileset
Gimmick Trophy - Best level that uses a gimmick
Save Me Trophy - Hardest Level
Tutorial Trophy - Best level for beginning lemmings players
Rendezvous Trophy - Best level that can replace Mayhem level 30 or Havoc level 20
Data Disk Trophy - Best level pack
Ozone Friendly Lemmings Trophy - Most improved level from a previous contest
Dev team Trophy - Best level pack made by more than one person
Good ol' Trophy - Best new solution from an original/Ohno level
This is something i'd like to do when i get the chance and i can't do this alone
Any thoughts?

While originally I thought this idea seemed a bit overly complicated, I could see this as being worthwhile as a just-for-fun awards (or maybe with some kind of small prizes) for the NeoLemmix Community Pack.

It's too complex for an official contest, though; but if there's interest, I see no reason why it couldn't be run as an unofficial one (though I'm not going to run it myself). You might want to consider allowing more than one submission per user if you're going to have that many trophies though, as we don't have that many people actively creating levels at the moment.
My projects
2D Lemmings: NeoLemmix (engine) | Lemmings Plus Series (level packs) | Doomsday Lemmings (level pack)
3D Lemmings: Loap (engine) | L3DEdit (level / graphics editor) | L3DUtils (replay / etc utility) | Lemmings Plus 3D (level pack)
Non-Lemmings: Commander Keen: Galaxy Reimagined (a Commander Keen fangame)
