The GCAs return for Fall 2025, hosted by yours truly! Out of all the things I've hosted throughout my nearly eight-year tenure as SBC mod, this is probably the very last thing I've bothered to check off. It'll be gilded, it'll be storied, it'll be lemon-scented, but most importantly it'll be your selections that decide who takes home a precious virtual trophy.
