So in graphics communities there's something known as GFX battles. The way it works is pretty straightforward but I will lay it out.

For designers these are the rules:
1. No premades. All creations have to be made after the battle begins.

2. No ripping work (pretty straightforward - don't steal from other artists)

Here is how the process works:

1. A challenge is made. Someone either says they are looking for an opponent or challenge a specific person.

2. A challenge is accepted. Either the person finds a challenger or the one asked for agrees.

3. The terms are set. There could be a theme (i.e. football), a specific image needing to be used, or freestyle (anything goes). In addition, a timeline is set.

4. Pieces are submitted.

5. Votes are made by other viewers. Whoever has the most votes wins.

We could include a purse to incentives people to battle or do a Sig of the Week contest where everyone enters and have a prize that way.

What if the winner got credit for both graphics or something?

As in they'd be able to submit both for their graded submissions? That could be fun
