Canadian Highlander is not EDH/Commander. It is a 1v1 hyper competitive format.
Each deck may contain up to 10 points per 100 cards. I.E a 200 card deck may have 20 points but a 199 card deck may only have 10.
With that quoted, do you really want to sit down with someone like me that would bring a 1000 card deck?
A point list is arbitrary, a ban list is a solid acceptance of how broken a card is. Sol Ring is broken in 40&60 card decks, and only marginally acceptable to me in 100 card decks. I would put it at 10 myself. Because I hate it. Why is Treasure Cruise a 1 point cat, while Ancestral Recall a 6 point? They do the same thing at the same cost.

The level of fun all depends on your meta. 4 player games tops. 6 player games are miserable and you could wait 20 minutes in between turns.
"Do you have responses?"
"I have a response"
"I have a response to your response"
"Wait I want counter your last response"
::painful explanation of how the stack works::
"So this doesn't resolve"
"Judge!"
"wait a second, I want to respond to the response of your response"
"Before this resolves..."
::spend 5 minutes looking up card texts on gatherer"
"I want to respond"
"Dude that card is in Japanese what does it say"
"Well I dont remember the exact text, let me look it up on gatherer"
"I quit"

I was actually thinking along the lines of combo ban list + points. The only problem points has is determining what the cost of each card is and what those cards prices should be. Also I have no idea what logic is used to set their points values, I just think the idea is interesting.
