A  contest somewhat along those lines would be fun: Name the ten most 
important  (encompassing?) ideas in philosophy and defend your choices.
 
--- Well, I'm currently discussing this:
 
Grice's twelve betes noires as he encounters them on his way to the city of 
 eternal truth
 
For each, there is a twin monster he likes
 
1. extensionalism
2. nominalism
3. naturalism
4. physicalism
5. phenomenalism
6. scepticism
7. functionalism
8. reductionism
9. materialism
10. empiricism
11. mechanism
12. positivism
