As for people who don't own the games, Carolyn's Creations has the Dogz, Catz, and PII demos and demo foolers available. These aren't perfect, but they do patch enough of the game together that someone who doesn't own the full copy of the could still participate if they wanted.
But yeah, I can see the problem in creating actives that require the old games in order to participate. My thought with the Gameplay contest (if there's enough interest) would be have tasks that ideally would be done in one version of the game, but could be done in any of them. For example, Day 1's task might be something like this:
The time has come to pick out your newest family member - a puppy! But which breed to choose? Will you go with the boisterous Bootz? Or how about the clownish Scrappy? Or maybe the gruff Jowelz is more your style. Don't forget about Chi-Chi or Chip either! If possible, take the pup quiz, and see what it says. Of course, the final decision is up to you. Once you picked out your pup, get to know him (or her) a little. Make sure you say what you decided to name him/her and why.
The only part of this task that couldn't be done in another version is the pup quiz, but I could build a copy of it in an online quiz maker for people with other versions could use. Therefore, it would be suggested that this task be completed in Dogz 1, but if someone who only had P4 wanted to participate, they would still be able to, and it wouldn't be held against them.
