I love this game.

The aim of the game is to 'beat' Google, by getting as few results as possible using any two real dictionary words.

SCOREBOARD:

1) argh - "wiccaphobia nunchuck" - 0 results
2) Sgt Cooper - "crumhorn obesogenic" - 0 results
3) feeshy - "onomatopoeic carbaminohaemoglobin" - 0 results
4) magsie o skaw - "demonym baddeleyite" - 0 results
5) Warboss Jakjak - "replicate piffle" - 1 result
6) Swirl - "rubidium metanoia" - 76 results
7) matt561 - "gallium nunchuck" - 160 results
8) Cpt. Killeman - "rocket slippers" - 1,070,000 results


Have fun! :)


RULES:
i) No names/places.
ii) no foreign words... english only please.
iii) no slang
iv) no quotes

p.s. I've decided that, to keep the scoreboard down to a reasonable size, I'll only take your best score. If you beat that, I'll replace it.

This only works if you count star trek dictionaries.

[Sgt Cooper]

It has been... brought to my attention that adding quotes in the search box greatly reduces the number of results...

e.g. "replicate piffle" with quotes - 1 result.

without - 3,450.

so... no quotes from now on... I WILL BE CHECKING :)

[argh]

I haven't used quotes. I've just tried the word nunchuck with everything I can think of.

Onomatopoeic carbaminohaemoglobin.

No results.

Onomatopeic, obviously meaning something that's onomatopoeia-ish. And carbaminohaemoglobin, what you get when carbon dioxide combines with haemoglobin.
