Title: The Hitler Game (played with Wikipedia)
Post by: UltimatePartyBear on September 26, 2008, 07:07:36 PM
I got this from a coworker, who found it on some other forum somewhere.
How to play: Go to Wikipedia and click on the random article link. The goal is to find your way to the Adolf Hitler page by clicking on links in the article.
Normal Mode: Click on any links. Limit of five clicks.
Hard Mode: Clicking on dates and/or place names is not allowed. Limit of four clicks.
General notes: The back button counts as a click. This isn't simply about finding the quickest route, but figuring it out as you go.
Example route: Restrepia_falkenbergii Orchid Singapore_Botanic_Gardens Japanese_Occupation_of_Singapore World_War_II Adolf_Hitler
Have fun pretending to work. :)
Edit: Blame any spelling errors on the guy I copied this from.

Hitler was a politician.
This topic is about politics.
I'm paging rat.

This thread is about Wikipedia, fame, and online cross-referencing. It's not about politics unless you make it about politics. And I don't recommend doing that.

First, it was a joke. Second a topic doesn't have to be about politics to get locked - it could just contain the names of politicians (See: http://www.nintendoworldreport.com/forums/index.php?topic=26037.0)

That thread seems to have been locked for man-nipple. Which makes one wonder why every thread you post in isn't.
