Do NOT let the moon discourage you! Bright nebulae such as M42 are impervious to the moon. Here is a test photo in the presence of Luna taken last year and which involved THREE 3-min subs (from what I recall): www.perseus.gr/Astro-DSO-NGC-1976.htm .
If I know my ex-buddy Kieran, he is just using some reverse psychology on everyone by trying to discourage them from imaging and submitting something ... so that his submission (during full moon) will be the only one tendered.
