Like I said, I’m happy to help out and judge. But I still would want to see a formalized approach to this. Put something together, publish it in the open and get feedback.
If you’re going to have judges then you might want to come up with a “scorecard” for them to fill out. The other idea I thought of which could be cool is having people submit anonymously and then your Nostr Memes account just posts all of the memes for people to see and react to.
I’m honestly ok with keeping one of the criteria “likes/zaps” because then it takes into account what the overall community thinks as well besides just individual judges.
