Pointless wiki game for the bored.

23 October 2013, 13:00

Click on Random article from the wikipedia homepage and get to Adolf Hitler's page with up to 5 clicks

E.g.
Random article selected
0. Berones - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
1. Category:European ethnic group stubs - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
2. Bavarians - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
3. Germany - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
4. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adolf_Hitler
5. Not required

As I said it's pointless so only play if you're truly bored.

At first I thought my random thread would be more difficult, but pretty straightforward when you think about it.

Random thread: Breed registry - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
1: Selective breeding - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
2: Natural selection - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
3: Nazism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
4: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adolf_Hitler
5: Not required.

Now if you'll excuse me, I'm trying to save up for a second Heisenbelt and Meth Horizon.
