The game (that'll drive you crazy)


xvillexvalox

Recommended Posts

One of my freinds told me this last week and it's really odd and I can't get out of my head, though if you choose to view details about the game, be prepared to go crazy. :lol:

 

 

 

[hide=Not for the weak-minded] [hide=I mean it] [hide=last warning.] The point of the game is... not to think about the game.

 

When you think about the game, you lose. When you lose the game, you have to tell whoever you're talking to you lost, but you also have to explain the game to them if they really want to know.

 

30 minutes after you lose, the game starts over. You'll catch yourself losing the game at the weirdest moments.[/hide][/hide][/hide]

I have a better game.

 

 

 

You will need a mouse with a scroll wheel.

 

 

 

What you do is find a long article on Wikipedia. I suggest the Europe entry.

 

 

 

Now, scroll all the way to the top of the page, and click your scroll wheel so you get the little thing which lets you scroll just by moving your mouse. Do this at the very top of the screen.

 

 

 

Now, move your cursor down so the page begins to scroll down.

 

 

 

The objective of the game is to avoid all the links.

That is perhaps the most creative and brilliant game i have ever heard of!

My friends claimed to have made this up back in my freshman year of high school, I guess about 7 years ago. At the time from them was the only place I heard about it, so I thought they did make it up. Just figured out last year that a lot of people online knew about it.

My game, which may actually require thinking...

 

 

 

Click the "Random Article" button on the left side of Wikipedia. Now, think of another article...I don't recommend click "Random Article" again, but rather just think of something. For example, I could pick Tokyo. Anyways, you have to try to go from the first article (The "Random Article" one) to the one you thought of...By way of internal links...So, for example, say your first article was "Robert P. Dilworth". Now, following my example from above, you have to go from "Robert P. Dilworth" to Tokyo by only using links that bring you to other Wikipedia pages.

 

 

 

I'll continue my example for the sake of it.

 

So...

 

Robert P. Dilworth -> Hemet, California -> California -> Japanese American (It's somewhere on the page) -> Japan -> Tokyo. ::'

I've played a variation of that. In the version I played, you have to go from any article to Hitler in a maximum of 5 clicks. I have yet to find an article that makes it impossible to get to Hitler.

I just played this, I went from "Mt Sir Sandford" to Rome in 8 clicks. Once i found the link to an English ruler i caught it quickly. Now to play Zonorhc's game.

Uhh...I think I got it. I read about your game thing and just completely forgot about it a second afterwards. Do I win?

 

 

 

You are in a constant state of win unless you are thinking about the game, in which case you are losing.

My friends and I reversed it one time. The first time we 'won' the game was pure elation.

Lol, what is annoying is the worlds longest webpage

 

 

 

If you don't belive it is actually that long, then use your mouse wheel and see how long it takes to move the scroll bar a pixel :-$

 

 

 

I got to the bottom and back to the top in less than 30 seconds, not that long.I clicked on the bar on the side and dragged it
