No. Any kind of monetary reward for getting any kind of placement or award is a bad idea. We don't need to give people any reason to either perform hollow acts or sabatoge other robots / "go for the throat" on the field in an attempt to get any kind of monetary gain. This program is about learning, competing with honor, and having fun.
