I am looking at using gallery2 as competition section of my website
my needs are:
allow upload to a folder/section within submission time
the uploader may delete their entry within the submission time
members can only vote on one entry per folder/section within the voting time
once voting time is up no new votes can be added or changed
and also a watermark with 1st place, 2nd place and 3rd place on the image both for public choice and judge's choice

what plugin would make this a reality?

I don't think there is a plugin that would do this - you would probably need to develop your own one.

a lot of the code well just talk to the other plugins like rating/watermark/permission/etc
the part ill need to read up on is the add item (uploading) for i can add the rules of the competition

True. In terms of permissions, the closest I can see that would do the job is:

I'm guessing that you would need to customise the modules you mentioned, if they don't have any appropriate extension points.

Good luck with it - I wouldn't mind seeing what you come up with.
