If this implies they might keep getting farther ahead:

I think the GDC will limit themselves to designing the next two games, because:

Imagine some part of the 2013 game is terrible and everyone (including the GDC) agrees it shouldn't come back. The GDC wouldn't want to have a game queued up for four years later (possibly similar, because of all new students) that incorporates that same aspect, then have to redesign it.

Less years ahead means better reaction times on improvements to the games. I think future games will get consistently better, the more "bad ideas" have been eliminated, and the more good element combinations are found.
