I don't understand the connection between submitting a log, and rules &
technology. Unfortunately it is rare that am I able to operate a contest
full time and seriously, but I do try to email the log to the sponsors.  It
takes no real effort -- a couple of clicks -- and demonstrates support to
the contest sponsors and maybe in a minute way helps with log checking and
keeping the top competitors honest. The sponsors do the work that makes the
event available resulting in my enjoyment, even if my enjoyment is only for
an hour or two, so it seems a little thing to do.
