    @kuemper - If my score keeps increasing at the same rate then I should pass your current score in five years. Actually, now that I think about it, the nature of many of the boxes means that peoples scores would increase over time.

    I think merely posting on a site called "sorcerers.net," which is a site centered around a computer game based on a fantasy/rp game, which is based on medieval fantasy; qualifies every one of us as "geeks."

    Not to mention the fact that we're posting in the said forum about what geeks we are. :lol:

    know "the value of pi (to 10 digits)"
    There was a guy in my physics class who learned it to 14 figures...until someone else in the class did. He then learned it to 28 figures and maintained that it was a lot easier if you remember it in groups of 14.

    I got 20.11834%. That's somewhat higher than I anticipated and was mainly helped along with my ability in the sciences (I did physics, chemistry and biology in yr12...and topped all three.)

    I ended up googleing "how to count to 31 on one hand" and I actually understood it, so you could probably add 1/2 a point or somehting to my above score

    I got around 12% so that gave me geekish tendencies. Well the fact that I study cinema in college doesn't really help me. I *do* enjoy obscure, documentaries, and foreing film. :p

    There should've been an option « I have/had a girl/boyfriend » So you would score lower :lol:

    35.10848% here.

    Not surprising, although I'll be getting geekier, I haven't really touched programming or serious web authoring yet.
    Does the fact that i'm investigating setting up a WAN for my family get me bonus points? LOL
