If its gonna be ultimate, then gotta make it ultimate indeed!
Suggested ruleset:
1) Any area can be run apart from LK superchests and Countess (because odds there are different than in the rest of the game)
2) Running time is divided into sets of which every lasts 20 hours maximum. Each player can do as many sets as he would like during the tournament, but they should in some way keep track of playing time (via clock of any kind, there are online clocks too, or you can use runcounter)
3) Sets are not connected to certain character or certain area. This means during their 20 hour set, players can combine characters and areas in any way they like.
4) Once set is started, you must finish it full 20 hours before you start another set (optional rule to prevent players from restarting sets until they find first rune and declare "from this moment on this set will count toward my score!"). Argument against this rule is that players might wanna keep sets separate between characters or running areas, and this rule disables that option since player is clearly forced to finish his set before starting a new one.
5) Cubing runes into higher ones is not allowed. In other words don't cube Pul runes into Um to get score.
6) You can play 1.07 and 1.13+ and combine them as you wish.

Zod (you really need score for this one?!) (in ATMA calculator it seems Cham is harder to find than Zod? ISO comparison for Zod vs Cham in 1.07)
Scoring system 1: RFO system
All Um+ runes are counted and summed up for a total score for each set individually
Scoring system 2: Zodthon system
Top 5 runes per set are counted toward final score for each set individually
Both scoring systems are applied.
Playing time: total of 1 month? I hope players won't forget about the tournament this long, it can seem too long like that
Opinions?
