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.

A girlfriend and I kept making Knights of the Old Republic double-entendres and giggling."You should raise your Awareness stat to complement my Dexterity."
"I'll get the whips if you start power-levelling your Treat Injury skill"
"That'll give your dark side points."
"Well, I'm only in it for the XP."
"You scoundrel."
In the end, we were laughing so much we didn't have sex. This isn't the nerdy part. The nerdy part is that we both agreed that it was totally worth it.
