I wouldn't look at it like that.  As authors, we are encouraged to write as 
much as we want to about the contest and let the professional editors 
make it fit in the magazine.   If I hadn't had a very short deadline
to work with, I probably would have written more than I did, knowing full
well that half or more of what I wrote was not going to make it into QST.
