Ok, so some of you may know we finally got a Wiki article up for FPA. And this is a game based upon that.

So, how do you play? It's easy, simply click here and it will take you to a random article! In the least steps possible try and get to the FPA article! It's harder then it seems because not many articles link towards FPA currently so good luck!

Here's my try:
>Acceptance
>Buddhism
>Japan
>Nintendo
>Video Game
>Video Game Genres
>Platform Game (Platformer)
>Mirror's Edge
>Fancy Pants Adventures

Have a go!

That's HARD!
I got
James Butler, 4th Earl of Ormond (terrible start)
London
England
Catholic Church in Great Britain
J.R.R. Tolkien
The Lord of the Rings
Middle Earth in Video Games
Electronic Arts (most will probably end this way)
Mirror's Edge
FPA

Just got back on the internet after losing my access for a week. Read more on Random Discussion.

From "Entertainement" you'd better follow the path I and Wjuk, took, it has one step less.

Darn. This is one of my favorite old topics.

Therefore, I'm going to play this game again. And all posts in this topic shall have a play. If you make a post without a proper play, it will get deleted. You should include links to all wikipedia sites. And you should try to avoid overusing lists. (I fail at that point.)
You are allowed to post even if you get stuck. Just give us a full link series until the you get stuck. This way, we can try to help 'ya.

So, here's my latest try:

• Paul (exarch) (Start!)
• Emperor Leo III
• Baptism
• Christianity
• Christian Art
• Art
• The arts
• Video game
• Lists of video games
• List of PS3 games
• EA Canada
• Electronic Arts
• Mirrors Edge
• Fancy Pants Adventure! (End!)

The only way I remembered to get to FPA was through ME. But I could probably used the New Grounds page...

[EDIT] 'cause of WR not understanding:

You should include links to all wikipedia sites.
"Should" doesn't mean "must".
If you make a post without a proper play, it will get deleted.
And with "will" I mean no exceptions.

Way to not go overboard like me.

[DS] I've told you once and I'll tell you again, "YOU MUST PLAY TO POST!"

Matt did 4 plays last time. So I'll accept this. But please, stop posting without plays. A game is a game, and it's rules shall be followed. (Even though WJUK did not state a play was needed, I did. 'cause that's what I have to do to make this game work.)

Remember, easy mode saves lives.

my try:

*AIGLE (Footwear)
*United States
*Internet
*Browser Games
*FPA

[did i win???]

[DS] You can't really win in this game. But this is a nice try. Did you use a list BTW? 'cause not using lists is the way to be awesome.

[WJUK] Just thought I'd say that I checked your run-through and you can't get from Browser Games > FPA. You have to go List of browser games first. But apart from that, it's fine.

WJUK-AWAY!

Just curious, does it count if we didn't have to click?
The first time I found out about fancy pants was from clicking the random article link.
So: 0/1 clicks.
Fancy Pants Adventures

[DS] I believe that it counts. But we can't really know if it's true.

Though, you are winner if it's true.

[WJUK] As unbelievable as it sounds, it is possible to get the article you want from over 3321000+ articles.

But the chance is extremely slim.

Fancy Pants Adventures

And to think most people get to FPA via a link to Electronic Arts or Mirror's Edge.

[WJUK] This is why it's good to have links to show your play. 2008 video games doesn't seem to have a link to Fancy Pants Adventures. And I'm not sure how you got from Civ IV to 2008 video games either.
