I've started threads like this in the past to see if there is any interest and generally there is not. But worth a try again.
I love rotation. Not as much as 14.1 but close. The version I like best follows the same format as a typical rotation game, except you aren't trying to get to 61 points. Rather you are keeping a running tally of the score accross multiple racks with a goal of say 500 points (whatever is agreed upon with your opponent). Potting the 10-15 balls is still important but it's not nearly as detrimental if you miss the 10 or 11 ball after a long run.
Even the standard version is great. It solves the majority of issues people have with 9 and 10 ball.
I would love to see some professional rotation tournaments. It's the way we are going anyway. The top players are figuring out 10 ball, so why not just skip to one of the toughest games in pool. See what they can really do?
