? It seems to me that winning the "prize" is nowhere as important as winning
? OTB due to deep calculation of candidate moves and exposing my wrong
? thinking processes to help me win at tournaments. I like this section a
? lot and gained much from reading the annotated results section.

I agree, it's important for us to work our way through these puzzles. I hope they're going to include more endgame puzzles. I like them & I know that I can learn a lot more by trying to solve them.
I don't think much of opening puzzles, as you can usually find them somewhere in your database or on the net.
At first I thought that I'd never win, since the prize can always be given to one of them. But I won the June puzzle. I received the Bobby Fischer book which cost IYC more than my entry fee! That's amazing.
