Next competition
I either am capable or I am not, if I am not I will have something to learn. Therefore either way I benefit, if not with a victory, with the chance to learn that particular topic.
Also, when there is a team, there is more time spent coordinating, assigning people to particular tasks, arguing with them when you give them a task they find boring, rearranging it so everyone is comfortable. And when all is said and supposed to be done, you find out one team member is coming up with excuses and you realize his only talent is coming up with glowing resumes.
teams are usually a hassle.

Also, i would say theres no I in team but i think you need more ;) Why would you wanna be all by yourself anyway?
A podcast ain't a program, actually the last one, out of my memory, was the so called disaster programming challenge and the name speak by himself … it was a disaster. From what I've seen this site doesn't have the structure to hold such competition properly.
