I think participation won't be as big as it was with OSP contest. Maybe because making a full game/minigame takes more effort than making a short program about anything... Aaaaaaaand, what Record said, making a program with no clear objective can means nothing for some people.
I wanted to participate, even I had an idea for the program, but I'm with Food Splatter remake and the deadline is more closer than I initially though. Ayyyyy
