I think Larp'ers need a +10 bonus straight off the bat, nothing more fun than an overweight elf.

Seriously though, its a fun idea, but any wargammer/RPG fans are going to blow this scale out of the water.

I'd agree with Orlanth's post tbh.

I only got a three. I'm actually fairly disappointed by that... I used to do Vampire: The Masquerade LARP, though. SURELY that must count for something?

I have most the DND 4th ed books, ork codex, mordor codex, Kazad-dum codex, an old wargames terrain book, and more...

Oh and the title is wrong this is a Geek test not a nerd test, theres a difference, nerds are kinda geeky (geeky meaning passionate about your hobby(I,E, maths, physics ETC) but they are normaly only called either when they are children, but a geek can be either (as explained above).

I'm rambling.

I play like 20 MMOs, but not WOW, and when I was about nine I played this weird penguin game.

I think one's success with the opposite sex is capable of entirely obliterating one's nerd score in many cases.
