One problem that might arise is that people could start using the code 
of previous entries, modify it a bit and submit it as new.  In my scc3 
submission you could for example simply change the colors and pattern 
and have a differently looking but essentially very similar scene.  Due 
to the small size this might not be easily recognizable for the voters 
(because you could quite well get independently to very similar 256 
character scenes).

The fact that the code will be visible makes this easier to deal with 
but i still fear that during voting there could be extensive discussion 
about whether some entries are based on older ones.
