I was thinking about a new calculation for country ranking, besides total score, average, and sumtop3.
It is like (totalscore/(country population))*some_constant_so_the_result_will_be_more_than_1
What do you think, does it makes sense?
Giz: is it possible to do that?

Z, are you trying to normalize scores against the total population of a country?
You'd end up with a per capita hack score, which would interesting so see. I'd vote for it. The only hard part-- tedious, really-- would be tracking down population figures the various countries.

That should be pretty easily parsable.
