Alright idea, but who says the CH isn't looking at the entries? To assure yourself that the CH sees it, don't submit at the very last minute. Submit early and make it stand out- so the CH has more time to see it and grow to love your work. Give him that lasting impression that makes him compare all other entries to yours...just a thought. I don't really think it is necessary, but a decent idea.
2 votes from me- it is a good idea, BUT I think that something like this might also encourage people to "borrow" ideas from other designers a lot more frequently...just a thought
I think having a 2nd and 3rd place mainly as a "rating system" but only the first place winner gets that prize money. In some contests, it would be nice if the designers knew JUST HOW CLOSE they were to winning- might push them into designing for more contests...you know? It might work as an influence thing to encourage designers to keep working...just a thought...
I agree with ulahts- who cares what the CH says to other designers, make your design as good as possible without worrying what the CH says to them...0 votes from me, sorry!
