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.

FMI play football manager whenever I have spare time, and I do mean whenever.
On the “game time” section, I have spent 23 days 18 hours and 43 minutes playing. That’s over 3 weeks of me sitting on the sofa playing a crappy game,
I also do mock pre/post game interviews when im having a crap/smoke/at work/whenever really.
I got my team to the FA cup final once, I got dressed in a suit and did all the stuff the old BBC pre show would do.
I work out formations and what players to buy all the time.
Im surprised my missus hasn’t kicked me out yet, I spend more time on this game than with her.
