Playing with the "8 map format" idea - mass start, each runner gets 8 maps at start and picks one. Those dropped 7 maps are scanned with bar code reader right after the start, so TV speakers / GPS tracking web spectators will know what spreading each runner is on.
Map, all controls.
Spreading scheme example:
course 1: a-aa--bcaaadbb-a--
course 2: b-bb--caabbdca-a--
course 3: c-aa--abbcacab-a--
course 4: a-aa--babdbcba-a--
course 5: b-aa--cbaaabcb-b--
course 6: c-bb--acabbbaa-b--
course 7: b-aa--babcaabb-b--
course 8: c-bb--cbbdbaca-b--
Course may be a bit boring, I didn't try to plan a spectacular route choice course, just tried to figure out how spreading setup would look. The course is just about 10 km, if it need to be long one might add there 6km unforked section with long route choice legs.
To make co-operation and code yelling more difficult - two sets of codes could be used. Aka at a control there is codes 64 and 72 and you have 72 in your map and your friend has 64, so you can't tell just by the code will you have the same or not.
I believe it would make nice relay training and do just fine for a club champs or something like that. Objective was figuring out GPS tracking friendly, fun and fair mass start format and this is best I have got so far. The idea is keep runners close together and have lots of spreading controls, so runners can't never be sure the train is going to right control and if it goes to wrong one he can't see where it is, spreading controls are not on his map.
To avoid extra map printing, in training races (like Yökuppi) we might use some sort of ranking/point standings. Runners in files of eight runners, top ranked at first row get 8 maps, they get 15 seconds to pick one, he passes 7 maps to second row and so on, in last row they just one map and they will have to run that. Not that fair, but the advantage can be earned by running well before the event, and (it's just training after all).

Some people are more seriously working on the same issue, here is what they have come up: http://www.orientering.no/nyheter/Sider/-%20Gir%20...
Makes me wonder is that really what we will see at WOC 2014?
