So I’ve seen several variation on this game, but here’s the general idea:
You pick a Wikipedia page, something fairly obvious, like a popular person or place.
You then choose the “Random Article” option on Wikipedia’s homepage. This will redirect you to a completely random article.
The goal then is to navigate to the original page using only the links contained within the articles, using as few pages as possible.
For example: today at work, we chose George Patton.
My first page was some Welsh actress. This is how I did it.
Wales-> England -> History of England -> Winston Churchill-> World War II -> Allied Leaders -> George Patton.
7 pages.
Hours of fun.
And knowledge is power!
Also, don’t try googling anything about Wikipedia. Because it will just suggest a page on Wikipedia about whatever else you googled.
Also, I’m three degree from Kevin Bacon. So anyone that has met me is now at most four degrees from Kevin Bacon.
