Custom Track Jam (better known as CT Jam) is a competition where participants have a designated amount of time to create a Custom Track related to a theme.
Choosing a Theme
The theme is chosen partly by the participants, and partly by the CT Jam Discord Bot, CJ. The Bot generates five themes at random, and the participants vote on one of the themes. After the theme is decided, the CT Jam will start!
The Aftermath
When the time is up, players will then send their custom track (as a SZS file) directly to the Host of the Custom Track Jam. The track files will then be displayed for voting, hiding the information about the author's identity. People can then play the tracks themselves, and vote on their favorite track. The track, therefore the author, with the most votes wins the CT Jam!
Seasons
Each season of Custom Track Jams lasts for five Jams, with every fifth Jam being a co-op Jam. After each season, the overall leaderboard will be archived and reset. The winner of the CT Jam season will be able to pick the theme of the first jam in the next season.

Turbo Jam
Turbo Jam is a CT Jam spin-off competition series created by Whipinsnapper, where participants have just two hours to create a Custom Track related to a theme with a restriction, akin to a Special Jam.
Choosing a Theme
The theme is chosen partly by the participants, and partly by RNG. The host randomly selects five themes and three restrictions at random, and the participants vote on one of the themes and restrictions. After the theme and restriction are decided, the Turbo Jam will start!
The Aftermath
When the time is up, players will then send their custom track directly to the Host of the Turbo Jam. The track files will then be displayed for voting, hiding the information about the author's identity. People can then play the tracks themselves, and vote on each track using a five-star rating system, as well as nominating one track as a winner. The track, therefore the author, with the highest score wins the Turbo Jam!
