So, here are the rules:

Your challenge, should you choose to accept it, is to find a Google search that returns exactly one hit.

Example:
http://www.google.ca/search?hl=en&q=%22yorked+in+the+googlies%22&btnG=Google+Search&meta=
"Yorked in the googlies"

Begin.

Holy cow! D:

I gotta try this! :lol:

Do image searches count? I seem to remember getting a one hit search last night on an image search...

AH! *squeal*

Strange, I'm sure it had one hit when I found it. Now I'm seeing two, which is still four less than six.

Hotaru said three words, but thankfully the "in" can be removed without changing the results.

Hotaru
10-11-2004, 07:50 PM
C'mon, other people have to give out requests. That can be part of the game!

For now: 5 words. 1 must contain X, 2 must contain R, and 4 words must start with the same letter. Try that one.

Draknek
10-11-2004, 09:13 PM
I can do all five:

Someone try 3 words, each starting with b followed by a consonant.

Hotaru
10-11-2004, 10:43 PM
Gotta try harder than that, Drak:

http://www.google.ca/search?hl=en&q=blam+blamalet+blame&meta=

3 words that make a palindrome. (spelt the same backwards and forwards)

If you ignore all punctuation and spaces, like mose palindromes do, this works!

http://www.google.com/search?num=100&hl=en&lr=&c2coff=1&q=dog+%22race-car+god%22&btnG=Search

Any # of words, but the first letter of each must be in alphabetical order.

Just One Word.

(Word meaning a Real Word, not "kertipsi" or "zroingplinky").




This rule kind of ends the game, doesn't it?

If it's a real word, then several dictionaries will have it.
If it's a misspelling of a word, then it's not a Real Word.
If it's a word that does not appear in a dictionary, then it's arguable that it is a Real Word, since we rely on dictionaries to determine what Real Words are.


So ... what is the word that you found, and is it a Real Word? :)

Opium

4 words, each word one letter longer than the last. The first word may be any length.
