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.

The shame, shame of it all!!Ok. I’m new here and this is probs gonna make a lot of people go ‘jesus Christ, I cast thee out deamon!’. I go to a society where a pastime is hitting each other with books shouting TORG! I play D&D, Warhammer, Cthulu and other systems like BESM and Swansong. I have played card game parodies of D&D like Munchkin. I also know what Fatal is (for the love of God do not look up this system, I’ve only heard of it and don’t wanna know anymore/ get chucked off of b3ta). I have a daily webcomic binge, read lots of Terry Pratchet, Neil Gaiman and other fantasy/odd writers. I can quote willow and princess bride into the netherworld! I was also a legacy of Kain fangirl. I am starting to play WoW and the concept of playing Bioshock/hellgate/halflife is making me drool LOTS. Now to top it all off, I am studying Egyptian scripts and archaeology. I am not going to get a job unless the events of stargate ACTUALLY HAPPEN. I am of the firm belief Bruce Campbell could kick Chuck Norris’ arse. I have also been on a cthulu based pub crawl where people loose sanity points by drinking. I was nice enough to help people loose extra sanity points by shouting ‘Margaret Thatcher cthulu hentai!’. Now the icing on the nerdy dear god what is wrong with this person cake is, I am trying larping for the first time in summer for a laugh…larping…as a pirate… whats shames me is, I have held back on some of the other nerdier stuff….
