Perhaps offer a small reduction for people willing to display to encourage participation.

When I found I'd forgotten to bring tent pegs at this years HUBB and had to use twigs from the hedge to keep my tent up all I got was laughter when people spotted them. Still, if there's a reduction I'd be happy to forget them again next year ....
As Ted says though, not a bad idea. I've met so many new people at HUBB, Overland etc meets by just wandering up and asking them about some aspect of their tent or bike but often people are not around or you don't want to disturb them.
Exactly how you'd choose who's in / who's out would be tricky as often some of the most ingenious setups belong to people who are just happy to be there and may not want to be the centre of attention.
