    The idea is to get 1 result, zero results is null and void.

    But isn't 0 results even more whacked, especially if the search phrase contains fairly normal words? If not, give the google crawler time to catch up, and my search phrase will only return 1 result - right here on Codeproject. Buhzinga. :)

      The idea is the complete opposite to JSOP's below. You must find two words that when entered into Google produce the fewest results, with the aim of finding two words that when entered into Google only produce 1 result. You have then whacked Google. Of course if you are successful and post it here, that will be two results. Rules: 0. Words must be in English Dictionary. 1. Only two words are permitted. More on GoogleWhacking[^]. 'A Googlewhack is a type of a contest for finding a Google search query consisting of exactly two words with quotation marks, that returns exactly one hit. A Googlewhack must consist of two actual words found in a dictionary. A Googlewhack is considered legitimate if both of the searched-for words appear in the result page.'

              "Maunder Pompey" 1 result (0.08 seconds) Like that?

              It was broke, so I fixed it.

                  I do like it, but if you go to the actual web-page it is just a jumble of random words, which disqualifies it from the contest.
