[moiety]

[Mr_hockey66]

only 18 % geek for me! just geek!

[Mr_hockey66]

Hey big dirty with over 1000 post we can see why you got that high of a score! Lol JP!

[catacasa]

13.21499% - Geekish Tendencies
Hmm.
I think they should've added a bonus question that was an automatic +10% if once finished with the test you were going to post your score somewhere so other people (er, geeks) could compare geekiness.

[suprsaiyanMAX]

16.8 - Geek

[Naughty_Insomniac]

12.6% - Geekish Tendencies

Yeah it was kinda long, but fun! :P

[Doylerulez]

19.5% - Geek There's no bonus points for taking the test at work, which is good for me, I was afraid to reach total geek.

[jerryenzyme]

34.12229% - Total Geek

[JSweeney]

47.36663%- Major Geek.

I blame videogames, my BS in computer Science, and using the internet before 1996.

(Having an avatar from an 80's cartoon probably doesn't help that...
or qouting the musical intro to the G.I Joe movie in my signature.)

Actually, it's just that the Sweeney family breeds geeks... (well at least the 2 known Sweeneys scored the highest round here :lol:)

[earlje]

wasnt able to finish it.. my patience meter just bust! kinda interesting though.

[WeaponX2099]

thank god: 11.83432% - Geekish Tendencies.

[Theenternal]

24.6% Im glad some of you scored higher! hahah, btw what category did that place me in?

[dcfox]

22.09.73% Geek. Is this something I should be proud of or ashamed of?

[-Never4ever-]

30.96647% - Total Geek
didn't think i'd get that high...

[CaseyRyback]

9 percent. I am a poser.

[SS4Brolly]

12.82051% - Geekish Tendencies

[Whambamm]

10.45365% - Geekish Tendencies

I find it hilarious that I know someone who would have to check at least 80% of the boxes though

[extzed]

34.12229% - Total Geek
middle of the road, and I also know people that would have to check a ton of boxes though

[ksuwild25]

9.66469% - Geekish Tendencies, that test was kind of long to where they should have added an 5 or 10% like someone else said.

[dmx10101]

9.27022% -Geekish Tendencies

[st0neface]

12.62327% - Geekish Tendencies

Hey Cheapy, what'd you score?

[ZForce915]

14.99014% - Geekish Tendencies

I would have thought higher...

[spoo]

6.1144% - Poser

[Ben_F]

45 point something. Super Geek. I blame my extensive knowledge of useless stuff.

[EggViper]

11.83432% - Geekish Tendencies

lol i thought i'd get a bigger score than that

[KrazyKefka]

26.62722% - Total Geek
I figured I would have gotten higher.

Yay....I think....

[dragonzknight]

15.18738% - Geek

[Forest Mercenary]

5.71992% - Poser

I'm a disgrace; I blame this on my lacking knowledge in such subjects as LOTR, Star Wars, Trek, and D & D (the only movie from any of those series that I watched was the first LOTR, which I literally fell asleep from), along with my hindering computer knowledge.

That test was stupid, because I know I'm geekier than that... :(

[Amanda the Red Mage]

33.13609% - Total Geek

Amazingly, I have somehow managed to get through life without ever watching Star Wars or Star Trek, although I have a feeling that if/when I ever do, my geek rating will at least double.

[greendj27]

Whew, I'm only 7.495% Geek. I'm that close to being cool. Can i still stay even though I'm a weak Geek?

[CODIAC]

...how to count to 31 on one hand .... WHHAAA????!?!?!!
Anyway I scored: 12.42604% - Geekish Tendencies

Yay?

[NuRon]

2.95858% - Poser

[poormojo]

61.297%

I ranked in the top ten.

Holy shit.

[soulyogurt]

49.70414% - Super Geek

Crap.


Actually, I answered some questions based on what I was doing typically a few years ago or the greater portion of my life. A couple years of life with kids and work and a wife (even if I did meet, date her on the net) have probably cooled my overall geekiness... Some of those points are latent geek now.

[sexdrugsandrocknroll]

4% poser

[Amanda the Red Mage]

...how to count to 31 on one hand .... WHHAAA????!?!?!!


Binary. Hold out your hand like you're going to count on your fingers. Extended fingers are ones and curled fingers are zero. So, for example, ten (0 1010) would be ring and index fingers fingers extended. The highest you can count like this is 31 (1 1111), all fingers extended. Just don't point at anyone when you count to four (0 0100). :shock: Using both hands, you can count to 1023. Although why you would need to count to 1023 on your fingers is beyond me. :)

[Syncmaster]

7.10059% - Poser

[MikeBosak]

5.12821% - Poser

Woohoo! I think. . .

[JohnnyDrama]

5.52268% - Poser

[x0thedeadzone0x]

21.09073% - Geek

errr... yeah.

[rocky76]

about the counting in binary.. I don't think I can. I don't know about you, but my hand can't do 01010 or 01100, etc.. It doesn't work for me..

[Freshwillis]

23.86588% - Geek

[metroidkiller9]

i say you are all crazy. i got to the intermission and couldnt take it anymore.

[oddfella]

very long but: 10.65089% - Geekish Tendencies

[dtcarson]

33.92505% - Total Geek

not being into Star Trek probably lost me a lot of points, and I also don't watch a lot of TV.

[Mr. Anderson]

Only 15.38462% geek. Disappointing, I thought I would have scored much, much higher.

[red flare graf]

Only 15.38462% geek. Disappointing, I thought I would have scored much, much higher.

Same here..

15.18738% - Geek

Seems to be the average.

[wookieballz]

I got around a 6%.

Now that's a low score I'm not ashamed to have.

[red flare graf]

Hell, I wish I could've gotten a higher score.. I just like knowing things, I don't care how geeky or irrelevant they may be. Knowledge is powah!

[Gothic Walrus]

28.99408% - Total Geek

Not too shabby...

[cfj1976]

26.6%

[pitfallharry219]

26.6%

I think you can add 15% for bumping a thread that is seven years old.

[whoknows]

Wow.

[bmulligan]

Yeah, WOW! Lots of names from the past in the first 3 pages. Before CAG morphed into the giant Tokyo destroying monster it is today.

At 42.62%, I never really considered myself a geek. I guess learning to program and being into Star Trek at an early age doomed me to fledgling geekhood forever.

I do find it strange, though, to see any scores below 25% would be contributors to CAG, or even have a passing interest in videogames. Gaming must really be mainstream now.

[evildeadjedi]

69% - Geek God

Yes, I figured I would score high and no I don't live in my parent's basement.

[Magus8472]

26.75277% - Total Geek

Props to the test for the Jeanine Salla point. I had forgotten all about that ARG, probably because AI was terrible.

[pacifickarma]

29.7%... *sigh* (I gave myself extra points for marrying a geeky Asian girl who plays video games and wears glasses.)

[bardockkun]

23.98524% - Geek

I Can live with that.

[The Mana Knight]

42.61993% Major Geek.

Not being big into Star Wars, Comic books, or various reading really hurt. I'm not that big of a geek though.

[Dead of Knight]

Only 20%. Surprised.

[The Mana Knight]

Only 20%. Surprised.The test just seems to combine most all types of geeks, but the problem is no one will really be into everything. I'm more of a big computer/electronics/anime/video game geek, but really don't care for sci-fi novels, comic books, Star Trek/Star Wars, etc.

[JP]

I got 16.78967%. I'm surprised it was that low, but definitely not disappointed.

[ROB64]

14.94465% - Geekish Tendencies

Sounds about right.

[DuelLadyS]

24%, geek. I thought I'd get higher, but my geekiness screeches to a halt when it comes to computer functions and repair. I'm a pop culture geek... (slightly surprised and amused my dabbling in theatre tech got me points...)

[Mojo691]

38.56089% - Major Geek

[Seventh]

26.75277% - Total Geek

hmmm...

[georox]

Took this laaate last night.. had a 60% or so... bit over, forgot the exact.

[neocisco]

8.67159% - Poser

I am sooooo cool.

If having varied interests makes me a "poser" than a poser I am.

I do find it strange, though, to see any scores below 25% would be contributors to CAG, or even have a passing interest in videogames. Gaming must really be mainstream now.

I was thinking the same thing. There were only few questions that touched on non-vintage videogames. My score would have been higher if current games had been included more. If not for my serious comics binging in my youth my score would have been even lower.

[Ink.So.Well.]

15% - Geek

Not telling me something I don't already know but I did get a kick out of seeing Highlander on the list. Where the f*ck was MacGyver though?

[blissskr]

16.97%-geek

[slickkill77]

How did you manage to find a thread from 04?

[KaneRobot]

How did you manage to find a thread from 04?

He's a geek.

[LottaGames]

Huh, guess video gaming isn't geeky. I scored a mere 8.3 percent, but mainly because I don't watch any movies (skipped a whole category or two, plus had no clue who those names were), hardly did anything that wasn't required at school, and go very few places besides work and home.

[ian1418]

35.23985% Major Geek. Somehow, I am not surprised by this score.

[elessar123]

37.08387% - Major Geek. A lot lower than I thought I'd get lol.

[zionoverfire]

37.45387% Major Geek.

It's kind of sad how many points you get for just being a Computer Science major and how few you get for being a mad scientist.

[PR Mega X]

Just under 16%. As a gamer, comic nerd, and cosplayer, I'm quite shocked and a bit disappointed.

[AndrewCP]

18.26568% - Geek

[Stoneage]

15.49815%. I consider myself a renaissance man (even though I had to spell-check renaissance), of sorts. I like geeky things, but also sports, all kinds of music, from church music to heavy metal. I had fun taking the test.

[Mixer236]

38.7549% - Major Geek

I've got no problem scoring somewhat high - I don't look anything like a typical geek/nerd. I played sports in highschool for crying out loud! I am a bit surprised I didn't score higher though... lol

[gbpackers94]

7.56458% - Poser

[FroMann]

16.23616% Geek.

[Sir_Fragalot]

50.73801%- Super Geek

[perdition(troy]

27.85978% - Total Geek

Fun test...and holy thread bump
