I gave up about half way through, because it looked like I was going to score less than 30% of the questions right.

This is the first test in a long time that I was PROUD of failing, though! Perhaps there is some hope for my social life after all :)

Good gawd! Three pages now and I've still done a good job of smoking most of the competition here.

Where it not for dxkj, I'd say an unequivical "Hail to the King, baby!" :D

holy crap was that hard. 78.57142857142857% nerd blood flows through your veins. I had to guess at the D&D stuff, I never played that. I guessed on quite a few. Is there a correct answer list so I can see what I missed?

Got a bit over 40%. The Dune stuff got me, and I couldn't remember how to convert 42 to binary... then there were random things here and there I couldn't remember

47.61904761904762% for me.
and as for jliechty's comments, I play FPS and other games regularly, am a fan of Star Trek (provided everyone bows down and accepts James T. Kirk as the best starship captain yet). However, I also know that CMOS stands for Complimentary Metal-Oxide Semiconductor. If jliechty so desires, I can even explain to him why they are called such.

Then again, maybe my goal should have been for a LOWER score... oops, messed up again.
