You really need to take this geek test. It takes quite a while to fill in, but it's worth it. Ste (neuron sysadmin) got a mere 30. I got 56.6075% which makes me an "Extreme Geek". Post your scores as comments. [via ste]

Ooh, nice posters [via pep]

More ooh : guy is back

I did the geek test.
I liked the question "Do you own multi-sided dice?"
Well, I harldy own single sided dice, do I?

I got 49.11243% - Super Geek.

I am ashamed of myself.

I'm not geeky at all, I only scored 13.42213%... And am deemed to have Geekish Tendencies. I've passed the test to Aled Supergeek in work and I'll let you all know how he gets on...I'm expecting at least 80% from him.

Something doesn't quite ring true about that bucket-o-ipod's story.
Posted by cal, 10:07, 22nd May 2003:

It's that online mail-order bride that raised your score, Sul.
Posted by Sul, 13:07, 24th May 2003:
 
My mail-order Mrs has cost me more than I originally planned on so many levels.

28.6% - Total Geek. I think that's a respectable score no matter which end of the scale you think you should be aiming for.
