I have to confess, this sounds like a good idea, one that I hadn't considered.

However, I have to be honest - there's absolutely no way I could prepare something like this before next Sunday, even if I had access and permission to get to all the material you mentioned. Don't forget, this is a privately organised event, empeg/Rio are being generous and supportive, but nothing else (apart from supply the marvellous {censored} for the first prize!). Also, I would have to cough up a fair bit of cash to make them up - 50 free copies of CD-ROMs in jewel cases? Hmmm, I'd better start saving....

Also, don't forget, the BBS site is based on an SQL database, and the data is served up and formatted by a server process written in PHP. I have no idea about how we could produce an archive from the site, and permission from PaulH would be needed, as well as his assistance.

In general, I think it's a great idea so I will bear it in mind for EOM3 in October this year. Sorry it can't work this time, but let me work on it!
