to uditha: I think 3d Silverlight 2.0 games are allowed on the contest: please check the terms of the competition for the complete description of what is allowed. About the "next big 3d game in Silverlight": my personal opinion is that 3d games have a bright future with Silverlight :), as it seems RIA apps become more and more popular. There are some Silverlight 3d kits already (such as http://www.codeplex.com/Kit3D, which has room for improvement), and a Silverlight port of Quake (http://channel9.msdn.com/shows/Continuum/QuakeLightPreview/) that definitely looks promising! :) You could try pinging the author of QuakeLight directly for more information. I noticed that you're working on MForce, which looks pretty cool from the screenshots you've published. About XNA api: I don't know what the story is there. I encourage you to check silverlight.net or scottgu's blog (http://weblogs.asp.net/Scottgu/) for the latest public announcements.
