More generally, the set of legal programs doesn't seem clearly defined. If it were me, I would be tempted to only accept externally pure functions, and to precisely define what parts of the standard library are allowed. Then I would enforce this rule by modifying the global environment such that any disallowed behaviour would result in an exception being thrown, resulting in an "other" result.
But it's not me. So, what exactly will be allowed?
If you'd rather run with a very small and well-defined Scheme dialect meant just for this problem, see my reply to Eliezer proposing this kind of tournament. I made up a restricted language since Racket's zillion features would get in the way of interesting source-code analyses. Maybe they'll make the game more interesting in other ways?
