 Eurovision Song Contest Encyclopedia, Definition, History, Biography @ ALIENARTIFACTS.COM
Many viewers of the contest view the event as a combination of camp entertainment and a musical train wreck (a fact played upon in the UK broadcast with the sardonic BBC commentary of Terry Wogan) and a subculture of Eurovision song contest drinking games and the like has evolved in some countries.
The number of participating countries has grown throughout the Contest's history, and since 1993 the rules have been changed several times to both limit the number of finalists and to allow for participation by former Soviet and Yugoslav republics, Warsaw Pact nations and others.
From the first contest until 1965, and again from 1973 until 1976 there was no restriction on language either.

The desired Cabrillo log format for the CQWW DX Contest is available here.

 Hackers organize vandalism contest Tech News on ZDNet
The winner of the contest will be the group that defaces 6,000 servers in the shortest amount of time.
The contest awards points to vandal groups for defacing Web sites, with higher points awarded for sites that are run on less common servers.
Because the contest doesn't differentiate between defacements on the same server, so-called mass defacements will be far more likely, he said.
