This is a simple and yet really really hard contest.
I have a bar of pure iron, which I would love to see forged into a katana...the issue lies within the fact that I myself do not have the skill. I tried for a long time with some other things, but I would only produce third-rate work.
So, the contest is one of persuasion:
Why should YOU out of all receive my Bar of pure iron?
It's up to you what you promise and what not, but one of the most valued will probably be the one trying to forge it for me.
However, once you manage to convince me giving it to you, it's up to you what you do: Whether you do try to forge it, or just keep it, or sell it, etc.
Since I only have one bar, only one person can win. As for what, I shall not say, it depends on what is done.
