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.

ooooh I just remembered
My flatmate has genuine, real-life taped up glasses.
They were held together with sticking plasters until I insisted he at least use black electrical tape. I'm such a snob :)
As testament to my own geekiness I beleive that many of lifes problems can be sorted with a good speadsheet.
Length? 137 hours and counting on FFXII
