What are your favorite rules for BJJ and Grappling competitions?

With the whole ADCC and CJI thing going, I noticed that Craig is trying out different rules for his event. Without totally understanding them my gut reaction is that they're weird. Are they really more weird than ADCC, though? Are we just use to those rules?
Really, the point is, I'm curious what your favorite rule sets are for BJJ and grappling? Do you like Sub only? What flavor of sub only (WNO, EBI, metamoris, no time limit, etc.)? Do you prefer traditional IBJJF and derivative rule sets? Is there a particular thing you would like to see in the Jiu-Jitsu rules?
I personally have completed under IBJJF, F2W, Rose Gracie's tournaments (precursor to Metamoris rules), EBI style (in the gi), an event created by Relson that I don't think ever had a sequel, and even did no time limit sub only. I don't have time to comment on all of them at the moment, but I will try to give my thoughts on each in future posts in this thread.
I like that there is a variety of rules that I can compete under and I think there are pros and cons to each. I also think there is room for more and have some ideas of my own...
Anyway, what do you all think?
