Just how the hell is "The TSR Spriting Competition" more straightforward than "The Spriter's Competition"? Did you even think that through...?
Also I'm tepid about this for a couple of reasons.
1) First and foremost, the majority of the regular, really good spriters don't post here anymore. If they do, it's usually trolling. This leaves an imbalanced skill level between members. That, or it'll be a newbie-only contest. Both will generate rabid complaints (likely from different people).
2) No one ever finishes their entries. Every contest has been like that, this one will be no differerent. This isn't Pixeljoit, where the userbase does pixelart so regularly it's like a job (and in some cases it IS a job); and the userbase isn't so large that there's always a supply of stand-in contestants.
