There will be a few changes to the skill comp that we are implementing starting on week 383, discussed below. I have also included some things that you may not have known about how the process works.

Slayer will still be every 10 weeks ending and on every week ending in (not a change).
Invention will now be a competition skill.
We are introducing new "Combat" weeks. In these weeks, all combat skills are tracked and you are free to train whichever one you want to compete. This will replace the 6 combat weeks in the competition (Attack, Strength, Defence, Ranged, Magic, and Hitpoints).
Because of the above changes, each competition cycle will now be 20 weeks instead of 23 weeks. A new cycle of skills will be chosen every other slayer week (every 20 weeks). The last 3 skills remaining will be guaranteed to be in the next cycle, but are cut off of each cycle to prevent the exact skill upcoming to be known (not a change).
The 20 weeks are: 2 weeks for "Combat", 2 weeks for Slayer, and the rest of the RS3 skills (except Summoning and the aforementioned combat skills), is 23 weeks, minus the last 3 weeks.
Summoning will remain ineligible for competition. (not a change)
When an RS3 only skill occurs, a random skill is generated for OSRS. The same skill cannot be generated more than once, so OSRS will never have 3 of the same skill in one cycle (not a change).

If you have any questions, feel free to ask.

Joe (71_Demon) is still running the competition. I am just making the necessary changes to the code.

glad to see invention added
I did think of something that might be good to have for invent weeks
exempt those who gain 0 xp for invention if they cannot access the skill yet (so if the last comp they got 0, then this one comes and they can't get any xp yet, it won't disqualify them)
