Wikipedia game

[Stuart]

goto
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page

hit "random article"

and in 5 "internal" wikipedia links or less you must get to Adolf Hitlers page (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adolf_Hilter)

I'ts possibly the most obscure and interesting task about. You need to think a bit latterally for some of them as I got sent to Bob guzzandi's page http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bob_Guzzardi, which I linked to the Republican party http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Republican_Party_(United_States), which took me to Eisenhower http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dwight_D._Eisenhower, then onto WWII http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_War_II and ofcourse to hitler http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adolf_Hilter.

So that was 4 clicks.

I then had some Japaneeese pop group who released a song on the 12th November, and on that day in the 40's Goreing announced the nazis would make madagasca a home for the jews, Ofcourse Nazi or Jew would have taken you to the man....

go to it. post your links here.

Wikihop :D I used to play that on bored afternoons at work, but it would be starting at article X, get to article Y in less than Z steps.

I still guarantee you can go from anything to anything in less than 7 steps.

Will have a go at hitler one in a mo...
