What is your score?

August 9, 2001 8:55 AM from

I am interested in how high your scores are.

I figure that I was a real nerd, but I only scored 25.60%. Who is the biggest nerd on WinCustomize?

I was going to take it but I think I could finish a SAT exam in half the time. That thing is HUGE!

I'm 26.0%
But I think some questions on this test are a little outdated, where computers are concerned (modem speed, RAM, etc.)
So I guess you can boost my score a bit for noticing that.

Well, the test is a bit US orientated too. But one has to translate it a bit to your current situation

18%, I'm either very dumb, or my preference for Arts is showing (even though I have a BEc in management)

Frogboy offcially announced his score. I was going to declare him #2, because he lied about the oh so important oscilloscope question. He had one in his basement, but it was broken and answer no to the question wheter he owned one. However, it was hard enough to tie with likw1d, so I think he earned the number 1 position together with the other super nerd.

Another update from the Dungeons of EFnet. The GreenReaper beat Kris at #5. Majestic (an unsuspected newcomer from Betanews) has a tie with Stardock's Jeff. Hell Dragon rushed to #13. Finally Tarkus name was corrected (sorry about that). What a fight, what fight...

Only a few ladies in the list. What has happened to the other ladies in WinCustomize?

Two new entries in the top 10: Transmutate at #8 and Jafo at #10!

There are two other new entries also coming from WinCustomize: Xymantix (#14) and BoXXi (#31). In the last four entries we see two women who have probably a real life, but Mack/N.G.E. surprised me. How come that a guy like Mack (who has one of the baddest and meanest machines in this community and is dedicated to the preservation of the idea that Nvidia drivers suck) has such a low score? There is something fishy about his score!

Finally Alberto is disqualified because he is not willing to take the test
