Yes

I would prefer 15+10 rapid or something like that. People could be given some x days of time to arrange time suitable for both to play the match.
I like this! For some reason, I thought it would be too much commitment to arrange times for such matches but I actually don't know why I thought so. I would prefer this because it means we're going to have a winner faster and can iterate sooner on the system.
Would you prefer everyone playing against each other in this first phase or brackets?1
Normally in chess tournaments win is +1, draw is +1/2, loss is 0.
Oh, I didn't know that. We can also do that then :)

  1. Btw, you finally made me look up what the +10 means, lol. This is how much of a chess noob I am. ā†©

I think that should depend on a number of participants. If the number is small, each can play against each, if it's big, then it's better to decide for a number of games each player should play and then do some random draw who plays against who.
