Next one day tournament format

I'm looking for some feedback on what people would like the next one day tournament to look like. First a bit of a constraint though, I will probably only have the next tournament last 12 hours. The 16 hours last time was fun but I'm not quite ready to do it again right away.  Tentatively I'm hoping to have it April 26th but I'll need another week or two to be sure on my schedule. If it doesn't happen that day, I almost certainly won't have time to do any until July.
I'm current thinking of a 6 round open swiss with rounds every two hours, a time control of 60s/4m/100/0/4h/4m and the pairing done using the WC swiss format. I think the specific swiss style rules we use in the WC fix most of the pairing issues that were encountered in the last tournament.
I'd love to hear any ideas or anything else you have to say on this.

The timing is perfect, because the Arimaa Challenge will be just winding down, and it could keep the momentum going.

Sounds great Janzert
I won't actually be able to play that day but I really liked the previous tournament. It would be awesome to have it as a regular fixture

I would like one of these tournaments to use a chess-like time control, like game in 60
