How nerdy are you?This week Gary Gygax, co-creator of Dungeons and Dragons, died. A whole generation of pasty dice-obsessed nerds owes him big time. Me included.
So, in his honour, how nerdy were you? Are you still sunlight-averse? What are the sad little things you do that nobody else understands?
As an example, a B3ta regular who shall remain nameless told us, "I spent an entire school summer holiday getting my BBC Model B computer to produce filthy stories from an extensive database of names, nouns, adjectives, stock phrases and deviant sexual practices. It revolutionised the porn magazine dirty letter writing industry for ever.
Revel in your own nerdiness.

I used to playthe Star Wars role-playing game with my friends at school.
also, Werewolf: Apocalypse.
and some AD&D
fortunately I stopped designing websites, went to uni, smoked loads of pot, and now I am the exact antithesis of a geek, a surfing, rock guitar playing stoner.
who loves star wars.
and when watching tv the other day and it announced "now the best ever episode of Star Trek: the next generation" I thought to myself "that's bound to be the one where Picard gets taken by the Borg.
It was.
