Rock, paper, scissors.
Seriously though, the bid (to charity) idea makes sense, but I foresee original owners getting greedy when they see what they could've gotten. Then they may pull it and "sell" it instead. You'd have to somehow set it up so they "give" a middle man the site, and then the middle man transfers it. Interesting idea though, I'm in. I've got about 15 domains I don't need.
