I think there should be the option to have multiple 1st prizes (where the prize is the same for every winner) as this would not pose difficulties as to whether a winner would accept the prize amount or not....I've just been involved in a contest of this sort. The CH wanted to award $20 per winner and was hoping to chose at least 10 winners.
I certainly disagree. It is not unfair in the slightest as everyone can read everyone's comments. If someone else is better at interpretting the CH's comments and turning them into a winning design I think it's great. There are already ways of dealing with plagiarism if you see that as a problem.
The contest holder is more likely to declare a winner if a great design is produced.
I'm a designer on 99designs and I think this is a terrible idea as it will restrict the number of CH. Why should a CH holder have to choose a winner if they don't like any of the designs?
Sorry, the CH was hoping to *choose* at least 10 winners.

I agree with Art, I think it should just be handled by the 99 team...they could just kick off a designer if there were too many problems with him/her.

I think it'd be good to remove them once they've been won. What's the point in leaving them up?
