No, it's not a hoax. The contest site is up and running. Hoping to get some PF bots to enter. We used to have a bunch that entered back in the day.

Anybody else notice the Guest numbers kept changing for what I assume were the judges? I hope that doesn't go against Aries since he would respond to a question with "Hi Guestxxxx" since he kept seeing them as new people..
The 2013 Chatterbox Challenge is over. You can read the results at their website, http://www.chatterboxchallenge.com
You can read there how to sign up a bot too.
But there are other chatbot contests as well, some of them are discussed at http://www.chatbots.org/ai_zone/viewforum/10/

Vincent Gilbert from RISOFTDEV inc wants to start a new kind of bot contest soon.
See http://ai.r-i-software.com/BRAGGING_RIGHTS/
"Bragging Rights" is intended as a lightweight bi-weekly show-off opportunity for the many, not just for an elite.
To quote Vince (source: http://www.chatbots.org/ai_zone/viewthread/1392/#14412):
The idea in having a showcase as much as a serious "contest" was to encourage botmasters, regardless of their skill level or where their bot is in ots development, or whether it might have a shot at placing in a more serious "Loebner" like event, to participate.

and the public poll is open (link see above page).
Regrettably, only two (2) botmasters signed in their bots.
