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 didn't know either...
We could have a mini QOTW for other things that we like. I'm quite the sweetie expert (i say expert, I mean fan) and love tea so much I can blind taste test the difference between Tesco brand and Twinings Earl Grey. But alas, most of the answers this week leave me cold as I've never seen a Star Wars film and the only console I've ever played on is a Wii because my other half needs to beat someone at bowling.
