565. 1 to put in a trick bulb (say, a flash bulb), 6 to
flame the first, pointing out that this bulb is
different from the old one, 29 to counter-flame,
pointing out that the new bulb is deliberately
different, and is parodying the old one, 7 to leave the
room, citing the extreme density of the 6, 12 to demand
that this commentary be redirected to the other room, 14
to ask that the bulb be changed again, since they missed
seeing it the first time, and 496 (a bit excessive, but
it's not my joke) to climb all over each other, trying
to put the old bulb back in.

100-one to announce that it burned out, 10 to agree, 20
to come running in with new light bulbs and screw them
in, 9 to screw them in and leave the old bulb in, 10 to
ask for a videotape of the screwing, another one to come
in a few minutes later and notice the bulb went out
again and start the whole process all over again....

Four. One to remove the light bulb by capturing it en
passant, one to put the new one in by taking back the move
whereby the old one was unscrewed, one to go snatching some
pawns while all this action takes place on the other side of
the board, and one to flash its lights, make lots of noise,
and announce out of the blue that it has found a forced mate
in seven....
