5.0 out of 5 stars Nerds not only welcome, but encouraged, November 16, 2006
By toppol (St. Louis) - See all my reviews
Nerds are everywhere! They just don't own up to it. Here's your chance to prove once and for all where on the nerd spectrum you lie.

A lot of the question here are amusing that they would even be asked (i.e. You've read a dictionary for pleasure 1 point). The questions are categorized so you can pinpoint just how nerdy you are in various aspects of your life (and you can laugh at those nerdier than you).

It's not foolproof though; I received 0 points for being in my high school and college chess clubs. And I only rate as geek (as opposed to übergeek, nerd, or the feared nerdmeister general). But still highly amusing.

Question I'm most ashamed I had to admit to:
You can count in hexadecimal. A points

I bought this for my geek son-in-law and he got a kick out of it. As usual, the vendor service was excellent.

5.0 out of 5 stars From a state registered nerd, January 15, 2007
Many good chuckles for any technically oriented reader (Geek, Nerd, etc.) A few were stretches, but to get the ten cubed count it's not surprising.
