My Grey World

let’s play a game!

Posted by: sylv In: Uncategorized

This is just a game to prove you the small world phenomenon. Using our most favourite tool (eh?), Friendster!

I call this TSWOF! It stands for The Small World of Friendster.

note : only applicable to those who have a friendster account(s). If you haven’t got one, OMG! How can???? Please sign up first.
(Gee, Friendster should pay me for this advertisement. Hehehe)

Okay now follow these steps…

Go to the search page. (if you’re that kind of not-friendster-savvy, don’t freak out. THe button is just at the top, the same place as the home/profile/friends/and so on buttons)
You can customize your parameter. But I recommend just leave it out like that. Oh yeah, I strongly recommend to change the “Country” to the country you leave in.
Go to the last page you can see. Or just pick any page. Pick your favourite number. Whatever.
Eenie-meenie-minie-mo! Choose one profile (maybe the one with that cute guy smiling photo even tho’ we’ll never know whether it’s real or not)
Open the profile. (still not friendster-savvy? Geez. Juz click the name/photo, moron!)
See the tab at top-right. It will say “How You’re Connected”
You’ll be surprised! I bet you ARE connected to them. Fourth degree, fifth degree, or so on.
Copy-paste the connection (not knowing how? DOn’t ask me. Duh.) and post it out on your blog! (don’t have one? Duh. Get one here!)
Let me know the result!

I’ll start first.. See see see!!!

Note : I’ve removed all the hyperlinks. I don’t wanna get sued by the people whose Friendster URL I publicize in my blog.
(But when I think again, I guess they’ll be thanking me for that. You know, that kind of friendster-freak and i-use-friendster-to-add-people-randomly-and-make-my-list-grow kinda people.)

me Ezekiel Cutiez -AiDynNnyDiA- hahaha

not very long…hmm

me -NoEz- AnGeL MaNjA ‘Sam’ Starr

still not long! See?

me Laurent GeLLie TeckLim

aiyoh.. still 4th degree??? Gonna find the ones with longer connections.. I’m gonna try outside my country!!

How about Venezuela? Seems far enough..

Found one that stated he’s in Venezuela. But his shout-out is a lyric from an Indonesian song. So fake. Try another one.

Russian Federation! Ugh.

Still found the people that stated Jakarta as their hometown. Tsk tsk tsk. Where’s the real Russian???

Yeay. Finally found one. And..

me RAVE Jessica Ivan

Bwahahahahaha. Now the world is really small for me.

Oh wait. That Ivan actually studied at Singapore before. Yeah, not that far.

Find another one! (being too curious) How about…… Kyrgyztan! Gosh it’s difficult to spell it..Gonna find looonnggg connections!

AH, another fake country. I see people from Indonesia using Kyrgyztan as their country. Fake fake! I got a conclusion : Indonesian people are the ones who like to “customize” their country in Friendster. Believe me I didn’t find any other people from another country.

Now this is what I call long..
