IMHO it seems to be stupid cheap for what it offers. Screw
the awards part, that is of little relevance to most TW's.
The first part is outrageous value for money, I can't
believe the people on this list aren't availing themselves
of it. Wassup peeps?
Steve's got a good point. Having submitted one website and two
books to past competitions, I can say that the feedback was
extremely valuable. Even when I didn't agree with the comments,
they always made me stop and think about what I was doing and why
I had made certain choices, and that in itself was very valuable.
The best part was reading a judge's comment and thinking "you've
missed the point" -- and then thinking, that means I had done it
wrong!
