    Talking Google Competition!

    How's this for an idea!

    Outset:
    A competition whereby each cometitor is issued with 2 random codenames via email / PM. After 7 days, the person with the most references to the two unique codenames, together, given on Google wins.

    Competitors:
    Sign up on a page somewhere and are given the dates.
    Codenames are emailed them on the day of start.

    Start:
    Code is released at 00:00 and the game starts.
    AS MANY REFERENCES AS POSSIBLE!
    All that will be searched are the two codenames (eg +codename1 +codename2)
    168hours later, the game finishes

    Judging:
    Simple - highes number wins. Any foul play suspected and the player is disqualified.

    What does everyone think? Any takers?

    Sounds interesting but I'm too busy hardcoding my xHTML.

    By that, I mean submissions after gaming has ended.
    Other than that, anything goes!

    Sounds interesting. But I think it's too short a period of time. And one person could have more references out there, but google may not index them for one reason or another, so it wouldn't be very scientific. It would be like trying to guess how many jellybeans are in a jar, when there are two different people counting the jellybeans, and them coming up with different counts.
