You recall the Highland Metaphor ruleset is the traditional form of the game that has been in existence for centuries and was the ruleset used at all the famous world championships; the explosive match up at Rekyavik in ‘11, the heavily gambled upon contest in New York in ‘29, the hotly disputed tournament at Danzig in ‘39 and of course Moon in ‘68, a championship of such excitement that even NASA sent a team of delegates, unfortunately for NASA Buzz Aldrin’s delegation arrived a little over a year late.
You confidently state that you wish to use the Highland Metaphor rulset. The Bureau are somewhat surprised at your decision but accept it. You are asked if you would prefer traditional Full English or the alternative Continental. You’ve no idea what that means but suspect it may refer to your choice of pre-game breakfast.
