Do I understand that right? We as transports only have to fly the routes during the competition time while the competators escort and take screenies? All routes between 29th of May and 5th of June count?
Also the times are in GMT, right?
Id like to sign up with Bob.The.Builder, a freelancer, also I have a question; Are we supposed to find the gateway/usi/convoy ourselves, or is there a meeting place or a skype chat or what?
Also how is winning determined? Is it the number of systems gone through? the amount of time taken? the amount of money earned by the trader? the number of routes finished regardles of length?

Transport players whom are members of Gateway) [*USI*] or [Convoy] that the competators are limited to escort during the competition. So yes.
Again yes. Each route being defined as one set of cargo going from A to B.
All times GMT, will edit soon.
