Sup people,

I remember playing this game in an ICT lesson in school (boredom does crazy things to me) and i've forgotten the phrase/word that got two results :( so it is possible!

so the aim of the game is to find a word/phrase that has the least number of results come up.

The rules are:

1. It has to be use english words that can be found in the dictionary.
2. Don't press "i'm feeling lucky" (so chuck norris doesn't count XD)
3. Use google
4. The phrase can only be 4 words maximum

I'll go first (obviously :P)

"nihilistic rainbow"
- 6.55 million results

no but if people start breaking the internet then i'll change the rules. It has to make grammatical sense though

"Reincarnation of Mongolian kings" -

About 2 results :D

Does getting 1 count as the theoretical best possible?

When I searched that i got 1.6 million results :P Are you sure you read the number of results and not the time it took to get them?

and yes 1 will win but when someone gets one that's under 10 i'll change it to 3 letters

"homogenic felis catus overlords"
A bit tired, but it does give one result. One alleled cat overlords :D

OR

"multitudinous synthermal slubbered snyes" - 3 results with one omitted
They are all words, some very obscure, several eqi-temperature stained small channels of water
Problem is that all results for second one are virtually identical word lists.

I got zero search results with this one:
Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans with pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis.

And all of those are actual words and it even makes sense. The first two words are the name of a certain type of bacteria, and the last one is the longest official word in the English language. It's a certain type of lung disease caused by the inhalation of very fine particles that erupted from a volcano.

Here's the link for the google search:http://tinyurl.com/isthisaperfectscore

Edit: I didn't notice that this had sort-of-been posted here before...
