Last Writer Standing Challenge

What is your opinion on these sort of challenges?  The idea is everyone gets a prompt and the stories are posted anonymously and then people vote on them.  The writer of whoever wrote the lowest scoring story is dropped and the rest continue on to the next round where everyone's given a new prompt and the cycle is repeated until there's only one writer left.

It seems like, as a writer, you'd be setting yourself up for a lot of stress and heartache.  And, the weirdness of not being able to respond to comments or claim your work.  But it would be interesting to see what people say when they don't know who wrote what...

Anyone done one before?  Have thinky thoughts about them?
