After importing two sets of new chess diagram types, Miron Hazeltine
announced a tourney for which the 'award' was to be getting the
problem diagram printed with the new type. The time allowed for
the tournament was approximately 1 month. No motto requirement was
mentioned.
As no actual prize was presented, the problem was printed with
the title Honorary position.
