The Chess Circuit
Three games at the chess table: save the king, mate the king, and walk a pawn to its crown. Perfect play punishes everything else.

Shortest first, longest last. Each game pays 15 points for a win down to 1 for finishing, and the circuit adds all 3 up. A game played on its own still counts toward it, but you need all 3 in the same day to take a rank on the circuit board.
