This would impose strict working conditions for the
participants. I mean, every round, some entries are
submitted by people who claim they had no time, or
only two weeks here or there to do them. Of course,
they rarely win, but they participate.

Basically, I don't know if many people will accept
such restrictions, or how many you will lose in the
process (thousands overjoyed participating at the
beginning, three tired people at the end). :-)

I agree with Geoff Wedig for this: it would incitate
people to submit poor versions until a final, sudden
"improvement". I also agree when he says that globally,
the round would be too long.
