Captain's log:
Day 30 floating off track into deep space.
I've begun to wish that I had't eaten the rest of the crew to stay alive out here... Not only is my stomach killing me, but there's no one to finish this game with... Blacks pawns are beginning to look appetizing, though... 
Okay, seriously. This particular "Caption contest of the week" has been going on for 3 months now. Do we have a winner or not?
- Ok.. think.. THINK. I have to WIN this game for the sake of humanity and I'm a pawn down. What's the point of this experiment anyway?... And the damned chimp is even taking photos of me... OMG.. THINK!
"Among the personal items he brought with him was a lightweight chess set. According to an interview conducted via e-mail in the quarterly publication of the Florida Chess Association, Chamitoff said he could not bring magnetic pieces, so he used inexpensive hollow plastic pieces and fitted them with Velcro to anchor them to the board."

As for a caption: "Hmm...trading off queens would create more space."
Given that the man is weightless, how are the pieces sticking to the board? If it's magnetic, then that must surely mess up the equipment on the craft?
Physics fail...
and your caption would be what?
"It's World War II up here!!!"
"What would Captain Kirk do?"
this is the last time i agree to car pool with Ivanchuck! (Chucky is a space cadet...get it!?)
OMG, I dont believe it, Tattoo from fantasy Island is not only a grand master but he passed NASA space program."its the pawn,its the pawn"
Astronaut is thinking, "The monkey used to make this move"
In space nobody can hear you mate.
