I like that. Overall programming knowledge won't get you far here, you need to have a good sense of logic to make an effective solution. It's a really good learning opportunity.

Hey Jason when it begins or something can you pm me or something?

Yeah I'll probably request NG to sticky a new thread each week for it, if it goes ahead.

just my 2 cents

EDIT: Ofc it would be better to "compete" with people using the same language but... There is not enough people for it.

Actually, I think it should be just any language, because it's interesting to see what people will use to complete their tasks. We all think differently, so say I have a project, my thinking processes would tell me to use Javascript rather than C# or C++ for project X, but C# for project Y. It is these thinking processes that I find most interesting, and are most helpful in everyday (and programming) life - your brain's workings.

applying your existing knowledge to new situations, and finding the best solution.
