#62It seems the real challenge here is coming up with the highest number of hops. I have two 4s so far with "pro plus" and "smallholder" but haven't been able to eek out a 5 or higher..
It started as a game on 4chan or someplace similar - pick a random article and see how quickly you could get there, or alternatively think up the one that would require the most connections. That in turn has origins going back to the days of aristocracy, when degrees of (blood) relatedness in books like Debrett's peerage were of great importance for evaluating marriage proposals among the gentry.

#66Doesn't work properly with accented characters. As someone with English as secondary language, proper Unicode support is one of my pet peeves. It's usually easy to fix and will increase your karma infinitely. For example, try entering "düsseldorf".

#68Earlier quoted context omitted.
Jewish -(redirect)-> Jews -> Adolf Hitler. Both are 3 but December is first in alphabetical so it was the first one recorded.
I find it viscerally painful to see the casual association. 6000 years of culture and all you can think of is some delusional scumbag.

First thing that popped in my head. Yeah, here come the downvotes.

I wasn't able to find more than four until I tried "Justin Bieber", which returned no results. I guess that means it hasn't found a path for Justin Bieber yet?
I think that means there are no hops to be made. Draw your own conclusion.
