Great feedback, many thanks!
I have just updated the site, taking your excellent suggestions on
board.
I think you've all hit the nail on the head with regard to the

Hi Marc,
With regard to cheating; it doesn't matter what we say (eg. use a
camcorder and have a clock in view) there will always be ways to

@Teemu - thanks for your comments.
The ideas you throw out there for the project are already covered by

I think the site is for people who will find this kind of competition
Hi!
I have a problem with the DBExecSQLUnderCursor command from the dbext
plugin. From the current cursor position it searches backwards for some SQL
keywords it knows about (e.g. select, create, etc.) and searches forward for
the statement terminator (e.g. ;). Everything between these two
