The "make some money" part is only $1, unless I'm missing something, and currently there's only 1 contest paying. So that's not really going to be incentive to participate.
It sounds like Project Euler except code size, code speed, and code submission time matter. Neat idea but how's this significantly different? Project Euler already has a huge number of challenges, a leader board, and a vibrant community. What differentiates amebopost?
Implicitly Project Euler already takes speed into account, but more as a step function not as a fine differentiator between players: Either you get the answer in your lifetime, or you should work towards a faster algorithm.

IMHO code size and code speed is already a great and welcome difference in making this more geared towards programmers than mathematicians.
