This is a question 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.

Horay for WinUAE...
... Which is in your startup folder right?

Hello there fellow Amigan.

I used to run an A1200, towered up myself with Blizzard PPC 040 603e 64meg ram (+2 meg chip of course) BVision. Have the M1438S monitor so no messing about going from Multiscan to PAL modes :) Running Amiga OS3.9 with all the lovely mods, MUI, MCP, MultiCX etc.

My Amiga Kickstarted ass until she was sadly decomissioned in 2004. I had it running as a server for a while as well. Running my website, ftp server, irc server. It was on the ethernet and had samba running so i could access its drives from any PC and vice versa.

I also created a lovely Arexx script pumping out my MP3s on random hooked up to a small FM transmitter so i could listen to my mp3s all over the house with on any radio :)
