because technical problems prevented you from uploading your work directly to the contest site, and when you sent your work to me, I didn't properly get it inserted into the contest system. Therefore your submissions were not considered.

Well, at last I've got to the truth about that - I've asked before, of course, but that part of my mail was always ignored.  So I didn't know, until your post above, that my work hadn't been submitted!!
