1. Was talkin with someone about how interface between two people brings other peripheral ppl to your page sometimes.
It brought to mind this lil personal game I made up and I play sometimes just for the hell of it when Im bored. I got this person to try it, so I thought I'd blog it so maybe others can give it whirl also.
1. Start off at a friends page, rate them....
2. Then using any available link on their page to another user (can be from family, friends or fan lists, or from visible bling or drink section, or profile/status comments) but ONLY from whats visible on their page, no expanding sections to see more ppl, etc.....just whats there.
3. From the links described above, find a person that you have had at least one exchange of dialogue with, meaning you at least spoke and aknowledged each others existence and the context of what they were saying. No "hey they bought me a drink but I never responded" or "hey they bought me a cherry bomb and I said thank you",....NO.... doesnt count. Niether does "hey I wrote voted & shared, G/L" on their leveling mumm, thats not dialogue, thats robotic sheep drivel. And No, they do not have to be on your friends list, you just have to have "talked" with them before.
4. Repeat the scenario above, clicking a new member each time, not repeating the same user.
Note: This will be more difficult with users that have the new style homepage, as there are only 6 friends visible to choose from...No you cannot switch tabs or manipulate the page in any way. Only visible links on their untouched page.
Caviat: Some users have their page set to be seen by friends only. For the sake of this lil game, these folks arent to be considered actual people, because theyve taken themselves out of contention and recognition, and should be ignored anyway. In this instance, you can backpage to the previous user that you clicked on them from and choose another, and continue on.
5. Continue to skip from page to page until you reach a page where there are no such visible users to choose from that you have conversed with or have not already visited.
See how far you can get before you are closed out.
I did it again today, and got as far as 52 before I had nowhere to go.
