Time again for Scarborough’s human chessmatch where many of the folk play as pieces for the amusement of the King and Queen. Charles Brandon is overseeing the white pieces while Anne and Henry oversee the black pieces. The battles can be to 3 touches or to the blood as usual with an occasional unforeseen twist. Here we have the Saturday extravanganza. The black team has got some irate eastern Euro nobility itching for any kind of fight. And we still get a foray or two into the Outer Limits.

The previous description and all these wonderful images are brought to you by Frank Hui. Because of his devotion, I have nothing to add. --Robyn Sotherby

This semi-final heat is settled	Now for the gold medal round	She does actually manage a good fight	But it seems
Boomer aint no gentleman	Little Miss Pettyjohn sees if she has better luck against Georgie	I think he likes the girls this way
She prefers a different scenario	With her on top	Anyone out there a fair match against Magnus?
He stumbles alot, no?	Valiant try	You think the King will let him yield?	Eventually
