Honeypot time?

How about a public honeypot area to attract the newbies? Those who demonstrate sufficient clue could be invited into the inner sanctum.

(For those who aren't familiar with the term, a "honeypot" (cf. Winnie The Pooh) is a computer system with a glaringly obvious security hole, intentionally set up for the purpose of attracting attention from hackers and/or automated trojan or virus attacks.)
