Hi Jim,
I love the idea and I wouldn't be overly concerned with allegro grading of all games. We all play chess to have fun and this sounds like great fun to me graded or not.
I would certainly play in it if I was available when you wished to run it. I love the concept of having the opening moves determined and having to play from a level position. That sounds great to me as my openings are crap!
Edit: I think I remember reading that Andy was thinking of a similar sort of idea last season but I could be wrong. Might be useful to get his thoughts on it.
