Best new timesuck game

It's basically a game of insane word association. (Ever see the old game show Chain Reaction?)

The hints in the top-right corner tell you what to do. They're not really spoilers, but still, don't read more than you need to.

Thanks, tobeginagain! Now I know what I'm doing at work in my free time for the next few days weeks!

this is hard!
i've revealed four of the spaces on the map so far...but it doesn't look like i'm getting anywhere further anytime soon.
i'm stuck!

how far have you gotten?

[desh]

I've seen at least part of 12 of the 25 spaces. But I'm rapidly running out of ideas...

I'm at 8/25 and it's getting pretty hard to fill something in. Whenever I get something new, though, it usually leads me to 10 other things :P

[thinkoptimistic.livejournal.com]

For me, it's just not knowing anything about the topics...so there's little chance of me moving on :(

[thinkoptimistic.livejournal.com]

Holy crap!
I need to figure out how to get further.

See, my problem is, I've found the poker stars one, and have no knowledge of that stuff AT ALL.

And then jesus.
I mean, COME ON. I'm a JEW! I don't know stuff about Jesus!

le sigh.

[desh]

Google is your friend. I've almost totally cleared the poker stars square, and I knew like 2 of the names, but that didn't get me very far.

[thinkoptimistic.livejournal.com]

I tried that.
At least, I tried Wikipedia for that part.

I'll try again, though. Thanks :)

Gah! You've just nullified all my attempts at productivity.

Are you attempting to do this all on your own? (Since it says collaboration is encouraged...)

[desh]

For now, I am, yeah. But that might not last much longer...

Damn you, Desh... this is addicting. I can only hope to return the favor.

I don't know who you are jdcohen but that link should come with a warning label!

My gym and my chores now officially have two new people on their hit list.


Thanks!

wow, that bloody game took 2 whole weeks to appear on this section of my flist; usually you (ex)abusers are so much faster! :)

Seriously. I poked around a bit, saw how long it's been around, saw where it's been linked from, and wondered why I hadn't been told about it yet...

[trelana]

Man, there goes the next few hours.

[angrychicken.livejournal.com]

I hate you. Seriously. I hate you.

Great. Now Abe and I won't get a lick of work done for the REST OF THE WEEK.

[desh]

I had some downtime at work. Now you will too!
