The idea is good, I like it, but it needs to be well thought out and executed for it to work, otherwise it'll turn into shit.

I don't know... I think if it's knockout, we need a good, diverse group of judges.


That's true. Again, I'm in favor of the knockout format, but I think Qballer raises a good point that these judges need to be diverse and at least artistically aware rather than just, "sweet graphics!" As we've seen several times in the Sig League, there's not a very strong correlation between public voting and artist voting.

yeah I tihnk this issue came up (at least for me) in the slg league when no one really liked your Amare sig, which I thought had the best creativity & use of color, while others bashed it for looking too much like an ad.
