To be honest, that's kind of ironic indeed, as AC is opensource and all.
Though, I guess any serious mapping/modding contest for whatever game provides some sort of price, even if this may be only featuring the winning entry along some (semi-) official package or something like that.
However, I doubt the monetary price is the major motivation for all participants in here. In the end, non-price contests naturally lack in seriousness and the real aim is to encourage mappers to create above-decent works, which the entire community will benefit from.
So far I see good stuff already and I do hope there's more to come!
Happy mapping to everybody! :)
