I consider DF easier than CoD.

I read 1000 page books in less than a week.

I win at Monopoly every time.

AAA is the best use of my Friday night.

I do not know how to carry on a conversation. Seriously.

Complex strategy is best strategy.

For one, given that this Bay 12, it is probably not "New triple A video games".

My first thought was Alcoholics Anonymous Anonymous, for people who want to beat their addiction to giving up alcohol.

I too have created my own alphabet (a cursive one). I then realized it was a bit hard to read for others (Crazy people). I've also created several small worlds, tho9ugh I gave both of these things up when I realized I'd never use these things, and other people already do pretty awesome jobs.

For my claim to nerd cred - I keep almost all of my textbooks from college, and have asked for books for christmas on topics like calculus, neurology, engineering, programming, and human development. I haven't read them all, but I do look things up every now and then. The bookshelves that they're on have to be rotated occasionally because of the weight.

BTW, they're currently organized by title from my wife, and it drives me crazy. They SHOULD be organzed by topic from most basic to most advanced. Math - > physics -> chemistry -> biology -> psychology -> philosophy -> religion/superstition. Of course each of those broad topics can be stratified too, algebra before calculus for example, and cellular biology before plant physiology before animal reproductive biology before human anatomy/physiology, and so forth.
Instead she has things like biology (b) before calculus (c). I have to think a few steps further to find any of my books anymore.

Does playing Yu-Gi-Oh on-and-off for nine years count? How about memorizing the plots of about eight different manga series? Knowing the ins and outs of Troll Romance off by heart?

- When I was a kid I kept all my magic cards inventoried in a spreadsheet.
- Sometimes when I'm bored during meetings I practice writing the alphabet with all the characters mirrored.
- I'm not half bad at the game of Go.
- I'm a programmer
- I play way to many video games.

I met Fred Dibnah once, and own an autographed first-edition copy of Hogfather by Terry Pratchett.

Never used Dwarf Therapist, mods or tilesets in all the years I've been playing.
I think Toady's confusing interface better simulates the experience of a bunch of disorganised drunken dwarves running a fort.

I, too, am an incurable Magic addict. Infact, I was just now given a completely sealed, never removed from box 9th edition starter set, with 2 intro decks and a booster. I was most pleased. Opened it up, foil 9th edition Serra Angel in it's own little wrapper. Not to mention all the awesome nostalgic cards from 9th :P

Quite nerdy, but nothing truly spectacular. Tried to learn Commodore BASIC before starting school. Drew a massive family tree of classical mythology (gods, mythical heroes, analogies, which historical figures claimed descent from whom) in primary school that took up an entire wall of my room. Some gaming habits... spending more time analysing strategy games than actually playing them, getting annoyed when it's easy to find a degenerate strategy, playing cRPGs in 'Rincewind Mode' - highest difficulty, solo wizard, no spells.

I think he's reffering to Homestuck.

Anyways, I consider myself the person who started a minecraft craze in my old school. I constantly brought it up and recommended it to people until they bought it, then they told a friend, and then they told a friend, and then they told a friend...

So yeah, I pretty much created a Cult. And we constantly clashed with the people who liked Call of Duty.
