This sounds interesting...

By when would one have to sign up to be a participant?

Signups are due the night before it starts, December 27th, at 11:59:59 PM. For organization's sake, it would be easier to sign up earlier.

This looked like a lot of fun the first time round. Hopefully I'll be able to participate this time round. However for the show on the 31st, would teams be allowed to submit a written description of their design? I ask because with it being new years eve, it may be challenging for some teams (myself included) to find time to come on the show that night.

Absolutely. That wouldn't be an issue at all.

What are the rules to using CAD models made before the start date?

The gdc decided we will run similar rules to official Frc rules and allow any you to use any models that are publicly available.

Will people be required to release their final CAD models to the public?

Nope.

I like that you are using GrabCAD this time around to circumvent the long load and wait times. I will shoot this over to my students to see if they want to try round 2. Make sure you post or send the judges comments this time around, constructive feedback is why they do this!
