Okan (Go competition)
The Okan (王冠, literally "crown" or "king's crown") is a Go competition conducted by the Japanese Nihon-Kiin. There is a single game played between the title holder and a challenger. Unlike other tournaments which are open to all players, only players in the Nagoya branch of the Nihon-Kiin can compete. The winner's purse is a small 1,700,000 Yen ($15,000).

gollark: That wouldn't actually save you, but in general yes.
gollark: Oh, Sans from the Undertale movie? That makes sense.
gollark: Of course, if I were you, I would have predicted that issue and produced a fake list as a bluff. Since by the seventh gollarious axiom you may be me at any time, you did, so I have to ignore that, since it contains no useful information.
gollark: Indeed.
gollark: It's not 1 in 11. If I have my own ideas for which is which and they roughly align with yours, I can leverage that to approximately *find* yours.
