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.

More evidence of nerdiness...I completely mastered Goldeneye 64. Earned every single cheat. I also learned not only the location but also the order of the spawn points on the multiplayer maps so that I could kill my opponent before they'd even worked out where they were. A well spent childhood if you ask me.

Me too!It got to the point where, even when trying not to, I'd unconsciously start heading to the next spawn point after every kill.
