If the type of hacker that would be attracted by a mere $137 prize poses any threat to a critical production server, the site has *bigger* problems. :) And if the hacker's moral system says it's OK to hack without having the get-out-of-jail-free card in hand in advance, well... that's the hacker's problem. ;)
