|  Hairysun | Dec 18, 2006 11:48am | The coolest new game involving Wikipedia. From Wikipedia:
A Wikirace (wĭk-ē`rās) is a race by as many people as you wish, using wikilinks to travel from one Wikipedia page to another. The first person to reach the destination page, or the person that reaches the destination using the fewest number of links, wins the race.
It's especially fun if you have a bunch of people watching. They get really into it. My favorite races are Hulk Hogan to Rabbits, Communism to Office Space, and Staplers to Homosexuality. |
