OT: Inner Geek

[Lex]

desperatly waiting for a turn.. and then i noticed there wasn't any active OTs, so considering the psychographic of Dom2, I thought it might be fun for people to post their "inner geek" scores.

http://www.innergeek.us/

I scored 50.88757% -- i'm a super Super Geek baby! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif

Ditto. Mine is 52.66272%, which is not bad for a 45-yr.-old.

You're not a 'Major' geek yet. Just a 'Sergeant' geek. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/tongue.gif

I can feel the sweat and Vick's Vapo Rub thick in the air after such a Test.

How many thought they would ace that test, even before they looked at it? Eh? Super Geeks?

Which i guess makes you a Colonel geek. Which reminds me of Colonel Bleep, which I guess you're also old enough to remember. And that recollection should have been worth bonus points on the geeks test, but wasn't.

For the record, I am a mere geek: 16.96252%

Not quite. I'm Generally geeky. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/cool.gif

[Minrhael]

52.26824%. Disappointed. Too much clothing variety and poor geek music knowledge did me in, I was hoping for extreme at 55% http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif

[tinkthank]

Bummer, 14.01%, that's just "geekish tendencies". Unfair, just because I know nothing about computers!

[Agrajag]

Indeed - 10.84813%

[Arryn]

You cannot be a real geek and be computer-ignorant.

[magnate]

A mere 37.67% - I don't watch enough TV.

Sure you can, you'd have to be an old-fashioned geek though...
Actually, most of the questions there aren't computer related (that's why I have a low score]

[Ygorl]

28.8%... some kind of hybrid geeky thing.

[Lex]

i'm sure if more questions where about D&D and early pc gaming we'd all score through the roof http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/tongue.gif

[The_Tauren13]

14.78%

[Gandalf Parker]

49.11243% Super Geek

I suspect my wife can beat me on that test though

Bah. A site hosting a geek-test that doesn't run under Opera and/or requires some cryptic Java settings. Booh. A geek definitely should know better.

[PashaDawg]

Only 24.654% here. Does that mean that I am 75.346% cool? http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/laugh.gif

35.1%? If I'm almost 65% non-geek then you 50% types must be some scary, scary people. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif Seriously though, too many TV and music quetions! I'm much too busy playing computer and board games for that stuff. Where are the MUDing questions? What about BBSes? I was robbed, I tell you!

that's because board games and MUDs aren't antisocial. I think the quintessential characteristic of geeks that detachment from following "normal" social behavior. That's why anyone who scores higher then 50% would have a pretty disfunctional life http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/laugh.gif

Although having said that, there is a majority of our society that's socially disfunctional without being "geeky". So you can't blame it all on star trek and binary.

Oh no, please dont do that. I got 49% as it is.
You add MUDs and BBSs and Id shoot thru the roof.
