I like the idea. Hope it wouldn't be in place of COC though. It would work well with the COC because it increases the chance of having rematches which are always good.
I think it might be better having it at the start of the next year as well. It might detract from the final if it was the next day.

If you're 11-20 points behind then you want to win the numbers game. 6 small gives more chance of your opponent missing the game which means you have a chance at a crucial conundrum. Basically what Michael beat me to saying.
