Be the first to complete an odd challenge

[Jetski]

This is simple, take a look through the challenge pages and select one that is poorly documented, impossible, confusing, or unclear. Give it your best shot, make a guess on what the OP has in mind, and take a few pics.  If you read through the challenges, you will see that many new visitors to the forums are immediately jumped on for not following submission guidelines, or not writing rules that cover all possible exploits or scoring possibilities. Let's try to make it fun for them! I'm looking at you, some of the more experienced players. You've already done the payload fraction, jool 5, kprize, whatever.  Instead of posting why a challenge is inadequate, or why you won't bother trying it, give it a shot. Make your own rules! If someone challenges you to reach LKO using only ions, take pics of a spectacular fail.

Points awarded as follows:

First one to actually attempt a challenge 10 pts

+1 Point for each critical comment the OP has already received telling him how bad his challenge post is (-10 if you were the poster)

Page bonus: add the page number you found it on in the challenges section, example page 4 is score + 4

Positive feedback from OP, you just made a new forum user happy, +10

Per challenge guidelines, see my recent my attempts at the eeloo mining challenge (10 points+4 critical comments+page 2=16 points), and the new moon challenge (not finished yet) 

Edit limited to version 1.05 or any challenge posted since it came out to prevent aggravated necro and possible resulting moderator ire

I don't think this is a good idea, it will do nothing but push some users towards making more of these "odd" challenges and finding decent challenges amogst these will become harder.
It is better to just leave the "odd ones" reach the 2nd Page of Forsakenness and focus on the valuable ones.

Also, whoever digs a challenge from 2011-2 will insta-win, so necro and everything...

But maybe I'm just pessimistic...

This is an original idea though, you've got that going for you.
