How would Tolkien-Ring style work?
Gather a group of nine, kill of two (Boromir & Gandalf), separate them in three groups, resurrect one (Gandalf), and at the end lose the ring to a tenth who will deliver it (Sméagol)?
Possible, but I think you're taking this too literally. I think the ring thing is something like a device that gets attached to everyone who wants to get into a rabbit hole. That ring device emits beeping noises in random intervals and everytime there's a beep and the bearer hasn't managed to get into the rabbit hole yet an Elf shoots an arrow into his butt. If somebody doesn't manage to get into the rabbit hole after receiving 10 arrows to his butt, he wins a prize (kick to the head by a Balrog) and climbs up to the next level which is pretty much exactly like the first one, except the Elf gets swapped out against a Dwarf and the "arrow to the butt"-thing gets swapped against the more hilarious "Dwarven War-Axe in the head"-thing. After everyone either managed to get into the rabbit hole or died from blood or brain loss the Elf and the Dwarf argue about who killed more and then go fetch some liquor and hookers.
I'm certain this is how the devs wanted to implement this stuff in the first place, but then they had to take the Dwarf and Elf out due to copyright issues and thus there's an awful lack of "stimulus". I have no idea why they had to take the hookers out though.
Eccles:
Perhaps we should just defer to the original Rabbithole system: the Sims (preferably including one female child in a blue-and-white dress, for continuity's sake) could chase a White Rabbit (bearing a pocket watch and complaining about being hopelessly late) down a seemingly neverending hole; they could all have tea with a madman, a raving hare and a sleepy dormouse with a penchant for teapots; meet a crazy cat whom they cannot fathom that has a tendency to appear and disappear at random; watch two overweight, badly-dressed men bonk each other over the head repeatedly while singing a bunch of nonsense; chat with a clearly stoned caterpillar about nothing in particular, then launch their own search for magic mushrooms before finally waking up and entering the school...
At least, that's probably how EA's version works, which is why it takes so long. :P

That does sound a lot like the Sims, really.

No. You know which Rabbit Hole system I want? The system where we had no Rabbit Holes.
Fuck you, EA.

Rabbitholes have existed since TS1. When sims went to work, they left the lot and went to a rabbithole. It's not a new concept. It's not even a bad concept!
