I feel offended by that test. It stopped me less than 0.5% from Total Geek.

I had taken this test a long time ago, but since I forgot my score, I retook it today.
I got 44.57594% without lying, although I'm not so sure that that's really a good representation of my geekiness.
The problem with this test though is that the questions are very poorly weighted.
Someone needs to come up with a new test that has some sort of weighting system built in.

For those of you too lazy(or busy) to take that test, I found another nerd test here that is much shorter, and ranks you compared to the other people who take the test. I scored 98 on that one.

40.63 - Major Geek.

It's a good thing they didn't ask much about the geeky things I actually do. Nothing at all on abstract strategy games; it's like they think Chess is the end-all and be-all of full-disclosure, turn-based strategy games. Do they know nothing of Hex, or Y, or Bridg-it? Go, even? Octi? Trax? Nothing?? Why, I oughtta show them...

*pauses*

Oh. Oh dear.

At vylycyn's link, I got 85% Nerd. That one was very weighted towards science and computers, and I know just enough of each to score pretty high.

Game on,

33.92505. Somehow I expected more

Oh, and 51% on the other one. And I have the Classic Geek Test around here somewhere, and the variation that has a score that goes to 1FFh and has a first question stating that if you don't understand the score, go somewhere else. But it's old enough to give you high points for a computer with 1 Mb of RAM
