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.

Still got my Lappy from 1988.Well, it was orginally my Dads. Never upgraded it (well, not in 19 years. it's got an 80387 co-processor and a whopping 4096kb RAM now), still works okay for word processing, PIC programming, etc!
The funny thing is it's still the most reliable, bulletproof computer out of the 11 or so in the house!
