We support based upon content quality only, regardless if a user has been here for a long time or is brand new. If they are making well cited, solid content, we will find it and they will be rewarded just as anyone else should be. So no we aren't making it a point to specifically support new users (IE we aren't biased in their favor) but we are supporting newbies, content from new accounts is constantly coming up in the curation queue!
The contests above are months old. It would be better if they were regular, maybe weekly. The contests would be a platform for newbies to compete with experienced users and show their potential. If the team have time to curate all the posts then it isn't necessary. I see you guys are doing great for the community. Thank you for that.

It doesn't end up working as well as you might think.
Contests are a tiny component. Please check here for more information about what we are exactly :)
