Well, they're the ones who will admit to it, anyway. There, uh, may be others.

Cough. I'll be staying out of Pennsylvania now. :p

I scored 6/10. I'm probably what people call the mainstream nerd. I know the software, but I can't make the software. Not yet, at least.


I'm not a stalker. You were on the map. Although... never mind... >.>

4/10. I can tell my wife now that I'm NOT a geek, whatever she thinks... :D

Re: Off-Topic [Poll]: How Geeky are you?
 

Apparently this poll is designed for a whole new level of geek, I failed that test. 2/10

Re: Off-Topic [Poll]: How Geeky are you?
 

Fair enough -- but then what would be acceptable questions, per your definition of geek?

(6/10, BTW -- Whether that makes me a nerd, a geek, or what, I'm still OK with it.)

Re: Off-Topic [Poll]: How Geeky are you?
 

5 pages with answers and only two of us have 10/10. Now I feel really geeky. My wife must be so proud

Re: Off-Topic [Poll]: How Geeky are you?
 

some more geeky questions:
what programming language do you speak? (yes i mean speaking c or even assembly language in a convo)
do you say end of line after each phrase you say?
do u believe the world is still run by mcp?
is your room an electrical nightmare due to "ghetto" mods?
can u say the alphabet in ascii? binary even?

Re: Off-Topic [Poll]: How Geeky are you?
 

Me too, got only 3/10 while I do consider myself quite geeky. :confused:

Re: Off-Topic [Poll]: How Geeky are you?
 

I submit that geekiness is relative.

In my working environment, I am considered a full-blown geek. Because compared with my colleagues, that's what I am. However, in this environment, I am a mere n00b, whose relative ungeekiness is embarrassing. Geekiness is measured in relation to others around you.

Re: Off-Topic [Poll]: How Geeky are you?
 

Oh man, I hit 10/10 and still I felt the test was not really geeky...

MMO's are popular now with WoW. Programming is given to any/most science,math or engineering fields in college.

l33t speak is urbandictionary.com

gamertag's should be obvious to anyone that signed up on these forums... :P

and the other ones aren't that hard since the main stream has adopted the new star wars and new star trek movies.

Re: Off-Topic [Poll]: How Geeky are you?
 

5/10 :( pretty depressed about that thought I would be at least an 8 point nerd.

Re: Off-Topic [Poll]: How Geeky are you?
 

Congratulations on being the third 'public' King of Geekdom (scoring 10/10) ;-)

Yes, I agree with that many of the things in the poll you get in mainstream media - and that it is near impossible to define what a geek is in 10 questions :)

But don't forget you also spend 5+ hours/days on the internet and get most of your news from an RSS feed. Sound preeeetty geek to me ;-)

Re: Off-Topic [Poll]: How Geeky are you?
 

6/10. I can hear my wife telling me: (I told you, I knew you were some kind of geek) :p
