Wiki Wars

Today, I challenged a friend in a wikirace. In a wikirace, the goal is to get from one wikipedia page to another, only using hyperlinks. The game seems much easier than it actually is. Out of the four rounds I played, I only successfully completed one. We tried different variations of the rules; for example, we played one round where we couldn't go back to the previous page, one where you could search words on the page, and a round where we tried to complete the race in a specific amount of time. The only race that I successfully won was going from Tie-Dye" to Cat. Heres a screenshot of the history of how I got from the one page to another:

Directly after this success, we tried another round going from "Beer Bong" to "Jonny Cash." This was the round that we timed, and we tried to complete the race in 3 minutes. This made the game even more stressful but fun. In the end, neither of us reached the end goal. Here's my history:

I didn't have much luck with the time limit, but neither did my opponent. Although she was much closer to "Johnny Cash," she didn't make it in the time limit either. Here is her history:

Both of us went in different directions when trying to meet our goal. I'm sure we could have found a way if we hadn't been timed and kept going, but at that point both of us had pretty much hit a wall. Its so entertaining to see the different routs that opponents go in order to reach their goal wikipedia page.
