If you were on last Saturday, logs are due by 8am tomorrow.  There's an
easy online form at http://www.arrl.org/iaru-hf-championship.
Even though you might only make a few contacts in a contest (I only had 62
here) you still want to submit a log for several reasons:
1. It's good practice and gets easier every time you do submit a log.
2. It gets your call in the "Super Check Partial" databases at
www.supercheckpartial.com making it easier for other contesters to identify
you when band conditions are marginal.
3. Especially if you only make a couple of QSOs, you definitely want to
submit so you don't appear as a "unique". This could actually penalize the
other station by making it look like a busted QSO that wasn't copied
correctly.
4. In some regional contests you might actually win an award!  People have
won plaques in the Virginia QSO Party with less than 10 contacts!

And finally, submitting your log to LOTW is not a contest submission. LOTW
logs are in ADIF format and contest logs are generally in Cabrillo format.
