Default FF Survivor - End of Week I

It always sucks that someone has to be the first one off. :sadcheer: In this case it is even worse because the first challenge was over before he even knew it had begun. So sorry to say goodbye to you so quickly 1Samuel8. :sadbye: You are now the first member of the Jury who will help choose the winner from the final two.

The teams are now:

Shit That Was Close :darn:
SharonDee
Megatron
Leesifer

:ff:uckers :lolhog:
LadyShea
Demimonde
Kael
beyelzu

Hopefully Shit That Was Close :darn: can close the gap with the next challenge!

Default FF Survivor - Week II

Team Challenge: Wiki Degrees of Separation

- Each team should turn in exactly three chains. The shortest three you can find linking the Wiki page on the left to the page on the right. (In the style of this thread: Wiki Degrees of Separation - Freethought Forum)

- You cannot use dates, and the links followed have to be in the body of the Wiki page.

- Submissions will be by PM to me. Please coordinate with your team so I only get three submissions. (Sorry spectators the thread won't be nearly as active as in the last challenge.)

The team that is able to link three of these with the fewest total number of steps wins this challenge. The losing team will have to vote off a player.

Here are the subjects to link:

Barak Obama :rarrow: Mesoamerican pyramids
Nick Cave :rarrow: Necrophilia
American football :rarrow: Suicide
Socrates :rarrow: Dog
Ford Motor Company :rarrow: Triskaidekaphobia
Novel :rarrow: George Washington Carver

I'm sure some of these are harder than others, so choose wisely. You only have to submit three.

You have until Thursday, March 26th at 3pm Pacific to submit your answers to me by PM. (The challenge will end sooner if I get all submissions early) Good luck!

For clarification, does the flow have to be one way? I mean to say, if the following wiki has a link to the preceding article does it count? Or does the preceding article have to link to the following one?

EX:

peanuts to elephants, if the peanut article does not link elephants but the elephant article links peanuts, does it count?

:tired: I finished it.

Thanks for the gentle nudge away from the forum! I needed to get back at work, but :ff: can be like crack sometimes.

Now all I want is ...

Wiki Degrees of Separation - Results

I must say that both teams did a fantastic job at this and found chains much shorter than I thought possible. Good work everyone. :yup: I was impressed.

Here are the results

I give Demimonde the credit for this one. I produced several chains, all much longer!
