I could make far more than $80 just spending that time working.

Unfortunately, yes. In the previous tournament, I had to disqualify a user playing under two accounts (one in D3, the other in D2). There's also been instances of players having stronger players play on their accounts in an effort to progress: Starlight-Pwn3 did this in D1 last tournament and was disqualified - marthalolz had Summerschool play on their account to beat Sei-Triplex in D1 on the 5th official tournament, Go_Oilers_Go had... someone play on his account in D3 of the 5th official tournament... the list definitely goes on.
