I think for show appeal check out this format. Each lifter gets a minimum of two attempts on the platform. Weight will be increased by 50 pounds at a time. Each lifter in the class will get to decide if they want to attempt the weight for 2 or more reps or they can pass. The weight keeps going higher until only 1 lifter is left. Each lifter can go to the platform as many times as he needs until such time they can't do 2 reps with the amount on the bar, then they are out. Imagine the audience watching 4 or 5 guys battle it out until only 1 remains. The trick is, even the strongest guy in his class has to at some point start lifting only because if he can't get a really high opener he would loose. That sounds pretty interesting for an audience to watch not to mention a real competition with a strategy in order to win.
