NerdTests.com says I'm a Non-Nerd.  Click here to take the Nerd Test, get nerdy images and jokes, and write on the nerd forum!

Huh, I thought I was a nerd since I spend a lot of my time on the computer. I guess I'm just socially awkward. And I'm not a geek. That makes me slightly sad.

What frightens me is the 3% history rating. :o

Well, I guess they just didn't ask the questions I knew. I'm really going to have to fix that some day.

Tarran has the "Tarran Bug", a bug which causes the affected character to repeatedly hit teammates while dual-wielding instead of whatever the hell he is shooting at.

Yo ho ho,
thanks for all your answers and votes, to help you, here's a nerd test:

http://www.nerdtests.com/ft_nt2.php


Hmmm..,. apparently I missed a question (not very nerd-like) and I'm tired of waiting for the browser to go back to see if I have to re-enter everything again, so I'm going to poke the server next to me a couple of times to see if that's the problem.

Actually, scratch that, they've just shouted across the workshop that we need to go out and collect a vanload of other second-hand computers.

Nerd score TBC.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)
I definitely should have scored higher on awkward and technology.

Nerd score TBC.

Switched to a different console on this desk, when I got back, for complicated reasons.  Easier (and faster than bothering with image hosters) to retype.

Science/Math: 95%
Technology/Computer: 90%
Sci-Fi/Comic: 68%
History/Litarature: 63%
Dumb/Dork/Awkward: 14%
Uber Cool Nerd King

Surprised at the D/D/A result.  I'd give myself a higher A, for a start.

I'm surprised that the Comic score is so high, I'm really not that big into comic books. But then, two close friends are actually indie comic writers, so maybe it rubbed off. Or maybe the sci-fi part is just skewing the score high.

yay for being only semi-awkward. I'm sure being married has something to do with that. (They ought to have an extra question asking if your spouse is a nerd too....Nerds marrying nerds shouldn't count.)

In any case, kneel before Nerd! Look upon my geeks ye mighty, and despair!

I have absolutely no idea what's going on in this fort any more. Migrants arrive, they die for some reason, the fort is flooded for another reason, then dwarves go mad, more dwarves die and I'm just laughing in my distress.

As a dungeon master, I am unhappy that it contains no questions to do with DnD.
