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.

*bows deeply*I always wanted to do that, but I couldn't have built it without mates help and none of them were interested in taking it past the "wouldn't it be cool", pub-talk stage. I figured on tortoise shape as big as allowed, as much weight as allowed, that weight supplied by armour and a roll-cage type strengthener, roller on the back instead of two wheels, really low gearing and really soft rubber for the tyres - just bulldoze every other bastard out of the way. Bugger all of this building a weapon which will fall off the first time you look at it funny lark :)
