My vote was for the second option. I'm curious how that would entail 3 proofs though? We'd still only need two posts/threads/logs/whatever, only a post would only count if the person tagged 10 times in it. Maybe I'm missing something?
Also, FWIW and I don't run this place, so maybe it's not worth much, but I wouldn't like it if we dropped down to every other month for apps, only because that would mean a long time for new players to join the game if they wanted to. My suggestion would maybe be (and this doesn't sound like it would work, but if you had enough people doing apps it could) have a rolling app cycle and do it weekly. That way you wouldn't get 100 apps all at once. You'd get maybe 20 a week. Put a limit on how many people can app in a month. Of course you'd be doing apps all the time (on weekends or whatever) but it wouldn't be as many at once.
