Who will step up and represent the UG?? (Rudj, I'm lookin at you bro :) )
Help make this happen!! The goal is to get a true cross-forum community happening... it won't just be at MT, all forums being represented will share equally in the hosting/judging etc. - If this works we could see this kind of artform hit a whole new level!
Also Uncle Justice should be included for his sketching prowess, if not as a romo-er himself then as a spiritual guide. He is Helio leading The UG Gracie Romo Train
Any idea when this might take place? How long will we be given to submit romos? I just want to make sure I have enough time before I think about committing.

Also, how will the winner be picked?
Hey man, thanks for your interest
There is nothing official, we are treading new ground here. I am open to any and all suggestions as interest grows. So far only a few have officialy signed up, but much buzz going around. Right now if you sign up you haven't committed to anything, only said you'd put your name up for potential events.
Once we get enough people interested we can start figuring out different ways of making things happen. I hope to not just have 1 big event, but to create a place where events can be sparked at any time/any level. People can make challenges as they please and set their own terms... I am only offerring the HQ or bridge to make these kind of matches.
I was part of the Sherdog GP and they had someone neutral MC it; they would send the work to the judges anonymously, and then reveal their scores. Worked pretty good. Some rounds we had like 3 weeks to make a shoop, the current tournament says 24 hours after each event, which is also fun.
Obviously there is much potential here... the rules can vary widely for each event. We could do 1-on-1 inter-forum challenge matches, tournament-style GPs, or something never done before we could have team-based comps where a team has to collaborate to create their entry. This could go beyond just shoops, we could make image/GIF/video categories etc.
Any ideas will be listened to, like I said there are tons of possibilities, its all dependant on interest level. So get the word out!
