Uh, guys, PT does in fact still exist in a somewhat living form on the internet, so I don't really think calling whatever spriting competition that might be hosted here "TUGS," would be appropriate. You can't just gank from them something that's been a tradition there for quite awhile. (As far as I can tell, at least) Name it something that actually has some sort of value over here. No one that wasn't already a member of PT at one point will even understand the name, anyway.
Anyway, as for those of you that are saying that the extremely skilled pixel artists don't have membership here....uh, what do you want to be told? Simply hold the competition with lower expectations in skill. When the experts are no longer part of a community, the people directly below them become the experts, in name, anyway. If you want some sort of tournament held between master spriters, then all that can be said is that this isn't the place to try and hold that kind of competition.
Oh, and having judges that aren't even members of TSR is kind of a silly idea in my opinion. But whatever, I'm not going to go around dictating EVERYTHING that you can and can't do.
