What I hoped for was convergence: after a certain number of proposals
are submitted, people start playing with and improving the images
submitted by the other and when *a lot* of people converge on playing by
their own will with one single mascot, we can be certain we found a winner.

I am not sure, we can come with a *huge* list with endangered species
but we have not solved anything until someone draw *cute* images of them.
Also, some of those species may be not well known outside a certain
geographical area (they are endangered) so people may ask: what is that?
(but as an apposite argument, something less known is geekier and may
appeal better to our current audience).
