My two cents is to not have official judges, but just let people wander by and pick up a cup, taste (dixie cup size?), and then write a score (1-5) on a piece of paper and put it in a box for that drink. Then add up the scores for that drink recipe and see what the standings are. Run it sort of like a wine tasting...

Drinks: 3 oz each maximum. If you drank six ounces each of seven Zombies, you'd be half-fucked. Definitely little office-water-cooler-dixie cups. It would be nice if they were in glasses with garnishes for proper aroma, but let's be real about cleanup and practicality.

Scoring: Again- no judges. And scoring 1-5 makes sense, but the score has to be an average, not a sum total. Some drinks, for whatever reason, may not get voted on, so it's not fair if they lose out to a lower rated drink with more slips of paper. Plus, if you've got a drink that gets votes for 5 5 4 5 and 3, a score of 4.4 out of 5 makes more sense to me than a 22.

Yes, I think the 6 ft. folding table would be a good idea.

This will have to be in someone's room. First step is to see if there is anyone reading this who has a suite that they would be willing to open for the contest. One hour, leave no mess behind. Anyone?

Thanks!
