Abstract:This paper presents an extension for a multi-dimensional set in which competition follows in several dimensions, and a competitor winning a certain number of these, is awarded a prize. The design of this contest is looked at from the point of view of maximizing effort in the contest per dimension (here as: dim./dims.) and totally. It is shown that there will be a tendency to run small contests with few dims. etc.
