This may  be an old idea but forgive me for not keeping up with the 
Elektron stuff as much while living overseas.

I agree, this would be very cool.  This would, of course, also work 
very well as a concept to apply to MnM contest.  Doing an MnM contest 
monthly on an individual basis would be nice, but would be different 
than the MD contest because "regular" instrument use is that much more 
readily available.  I think the multiple person use of the MnM in a 
contest is intriguing, especially if the early tracks are not allowed 
to be changed.  You could set a number that had to be in a team, and 
how may total tracks that each person could do.  example such as team 
of 3, 1 track each.. team of 3, 2 tracks each.  team of 4, 1 track 
each... etc.

Don't want to overload the Yahoo site, though, since space is so 
limited, but who would be interested in either individual or team MnM 
only contests?  And finally the mother of all Elektron contests (that 
would be the source of some other nice promotional material for the 
company, as is the current contest in my opinion) - the Elektron 
freestyle contests.  MD+MnM class (current production) and True 
Freestyle (MD, MnM, +SID optional in any combination).

This is the kind of thing that, if not only for webspace and 
organizational ease, would be better served by a privately run public 
bbs or content management system as was heavily argued earlier on the 
list.

Yours,
Chris
