Maybe a giant contest could be had or something to determine starting bonuses, like a building judgment or something. I think I'd rather just give people a really large number of general materials though. Basically start a new map and flatten an area out near spawn for a city to be built (and allow people a base of operations) and put out multiple areas of about 25x25 (with open road areas between them) that people can claim that will have multiple chests on each lot filled with different materials to give people a boost and incentive to get productive. I think people just don't want the starting downtime grind and I will probably do something like this if I start a server myself. Don't really know what to go for though.
If it were possible, I'd be happy if I could bring over just a chest of the stuff I have collected.
