Console Emulation
ROM Hacking

Clearer path, but same number of frickin' steps.

If only the "emulation" link in "video game console" lead to "console emulation" instead of general "emulation". Bah.

I think a better one can be found. I honestly belive that any trip can be done in 6 steps or less.

Posts: 9/10		 The best I can do is seven but I don't have the pad, since it's too long..
Smallhacker
Posts: 238/832		 Look at my posts again. You went from "Crayfish" to "From Russia with Love (video game)". You're supposed to go from "From Russia with Love (video game)" to "Crayfish".

By the way, what you said doesn't count as a path (since it's incorrect), so you can still post a correct one.
Heian-794
Posts: 25/160		 Smallhacker, you are right; Cinnamon links to Alexandria, which in turn links to the Library of Alexandria. As soon as I saw "Alexandria" on the Crayfish page, I thought, 'Alexandria's got a library; Hogwarts has one too; there's my angle!" It worked but I should have been more careful!

As for this one:

Crayfish > Europe > Octopus > Octopus (disambiguation) > From Russia with Love (video game)

The word "European" on the Crayfish page links to "Europe".

(Grumble... stupid disambiguation pages... that should be a three-stepper!)
Smallhacker
Posts: 237/832		 Edit: Heian-794 seems to have missed the "Alexandria" step. (At least, I can't find a link from Cinnamon to the Library of Alexandria.) Since his path is incorrect, NSNick is the winner.

Posts: 409/2228		 Another 4-stepper:

Cinnamon => Supermarket => Book => Librarian => Hogwarts
Heian-794
Posts: 23/160		 Cinnamon > Library of Alexandria > Library > Librarian > Hogwarts

4 steps (with three of them being almost trivially similar)!
NSNick
Posts: 405/2228		 5 steps:

Cinnamon => Chocolate => Charlie and the Chocolate Factory => Children's Book => Harry Potter => Hogwarts
