We, as designers, have the one profession where something can look like ass to one person, then look unreal to another, hence why contests are a waste of time and effort (unless a noob who has no work and needs to showcase their own style).

All perfectly true, however:
Why not? If there is something in it for you (exposure, being able to sell a losing deisgn afterwards) why would you not want to do this?
Valid reasons include:
- Too busy with booked work to devote time to a "maybe"
Uh, that's the only one I can think of.
I just think it would be fun. Give everyone a fair shot at some prizes and such and be a great advertising tool at the same time.
