Alex, why not get them to have a go anyway? You would have to submit 
your entry as MO but if you actually did 12 hours Restricted you could 
see how your score compared with the entrants in that section. You could 
allocate say three 4 hour or four 3 hour sessions to coincide with 
anticipated peak activity periods. The gurus will advise better but say 
1000 to 1400, 1600-2000, 0600-1000. Set a target of say 100 Qs. Do some 
analysis afterwards then they might want to have another go next year.

Play by the rules but use them to do what you want.
