I'm thinking the ideal format for the tournament will depend on how many people sign up for it. If only a few people sign up, then it will be feasible for everyone to play everyone else at all the games. If a moderate number sign up, then my sub-tournament idea would work well. It may be best suited for somewhere in the neighborhood of 8 players. With that many, each sub-tournament would have 3 rounds. If 4 rounds isn't too much of a burden, then it could handle up to 16 players. Something like what Antoine suggests may be suitable for larger numbers. I've also been thinking of a series of elimination rounds from one variant to the next, which I think was part of what he suggested. Another possiblity for large numbers would be to place different groups of 8 into different sub-tournaments.
