Have each person bring say 5 stones. A judge tosses very low quality out. Remaining stones are randomly assigned. Perhaps problem solved.
The image showed buckets of stones. Part of the skill is in selecting the best one. Perhaps they should dump out a few hundred suitable stones and participants get one minute to pick 3.
I’m coming to realise that people will compete at anything. And cheat at anything.
I also was amazed by the second realisation. Like you find a fucking niche sport, which even if you become the world-champion barely anyone will know and yet you still cheat? Why do you even…
The stones having to come from the island messes up my thoughts on this but you could have “natural” erosion of the rock in a circle if you made a synthetic riverbed that flowed water through very quickly, while dumping sand in. Like a weirder rock tumbler. Would also take a very long time to get appropriate rocks and I’m not sure how you keep them from going into spheres, but anyway.
