About the christmas song thing, I used to live in South Africa and to be honest it was rarely cold enough for us to consider it 'winter' like everyone else. Winter over (june time of year) tends to be the dry season so we spent most of our time outside and in winter (december time) we went out whenever we could. Santa just 'came' by our tree (which one year was just A tree..). Presents under a cycad - kinda stands out less than you think
More on topic, a technical challenge does sound fun and I can't disagree with User137s' mor community oriented idea - maybe have the voting split 50/50 with official judges counting as half the say and the community the other? And I must say I agree on the rewards side - Ludum Dare is now one of the biggest competitions of that type and its only reward is to finish. In other words, as long as the challenge is big/daunting/tough enough the simple fact of saying "I did that" tends to be quite rewarding
