It came down to two people: Marius and rkotter. Both did everything the contest required plus some. It was a tough decision between the two and in the end we had to resolve the duel with something masterful and innovative:

Flipped a coin.

OK, so it’s not so innovative or masterful, but it was quick and painless.

Marius was heads and rkotter was tails. The coin was a penny (because that’s what my wife had in her pocket at the time). The penny was flipped into the air over an oak hardwood floor (just to keep things even.)

Tails.
