Cute. For the VLOD thing, I guess I'd suggest sticking it in the same place as the chokey penalty. What I'd really like to see, though, is having a "King of the Hill" whose VLOD is multiplied by something, but making the King of the Hill position especially difficult to get and lasting for a finite
