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.

@SmithlickYeah - elsewhere I said that missed the wargaming out and went straight for the dressing up in period military gear thing. Why would you want a graphic or image of a sword when you can swing a real one in your hand?
I've taken part in recreation of gladiatorial combat and fought in real Roman arenas in this country and in Italy AND been paid for the privilege.
Beats sitting in front of a monitor in my books!
