The Geek Test

[Elro]

How Geeky Are You? (http://www.innergeek.us/)

[int]

36%. I am a major geek.

Heads up - the test can take a while.

[QrioCT]

9%. fell asleep while reading all that...zzzzz

[euterpenc]

10%. What kind of MBTI would have an inclination for this?

[EdwinJefferson]

18.54043% geek.

[Elro]

Not sure if it correlates to type, as right now the numbers seem a bit random. Mine was about 34.5%. It was the robot questions that did it for me, I think. :nerd:

They are random. It counts how many checkboxes there are, then counts how many have been checked and works out the percentage.

[booyalab]

21.30178% geek

[EdwinJefferson]

21.30178% geek

I knew you'd be geekier than me. It's always a game with you. 'I'm geekier than thou'..

[Johnny]

22.09073% geek.

Loud, and proud.

:sombrero:

[Miss Anthropic]

7 point something percent....That's right, I'm a poser. It just reinforces my "outsider" insecurities. Due to my INTPness I never fit in with the popular mainstream, but I never fit in with the geeks either :cry:

[cjs55]

27.41617% - Total Geek.

So suprising!

[mgb]

Weird, exactly the same as booyalab.

21.30178%.

[melancholeric]

Doesn't seem to work with Opera.

[Nindy]

56.01578% - Extreme Geek

[matthew0028]

25%

[Bluehaze]

53.0572% - Super Geek

[jetboots]

That test is way too long, I stopped about 1/4 way thru when I saw that I wasnt checkin all too much and that I would score in the low geek quality catagory... Once you get the drift, why continue?:P

[Hyperion]

38.2643% - Major Geek

[CreativeChaos]

I don't know. I couldn't finish it once I realized how long it was. Had some laughs though. You know what would really be fun? Adding to that list like

"Caught stalking girl/boy at a Treck Fair?"

[CreativeChaos]

Ok, here's one:

"Kissed, hug, carressed computer monitor with photo of hot girl/boy on."

[INTrPosr]

21.49901% Geek

[jyakulis]

regular geek i knew that already.....this test was too long

[MasterMerk]

1.5%

I ROCK!! YEAH!! Where's the keg?

[CreativeChaos]

Huh? You were actually able to finish that MM? An NF? What's up?

[MasterMerk]

Look at my score, I ticked about 2 boxes.

[CreativeChaos]

Yeah, but you actually got a score! You actually read through that whole thing! :smooch:

[mgb]

Ok, here's one:

"Kissed, hug, carressed computer monitor with photo of hot girl/boy on."

C'mon, we know you are actually doing that.

[jimkopelli]

I took it a while back and don't remember what I scored... but I do remember that it seemed fairly accurate. Not bored enough to retake.

Heh! That's for geeks of which I am not. I prefer the warm, close-up personal touch of a real anatomically correct hot doll. (Take that anyway you wish, hee!)

[indie]

38.2643% - Major Geek

Exactly the same:

[Zero Angel]

~19% Geek

[joft]

22.09073% - Geek

star wars and computer questions comprised my entire score though

[bmw318tiChic]

I'm 17% geek.

[Edmond Zedo]

Ooh, 27.61341% (Total). I annihilated the movies category--Checked every box except "Rocky Horror."

[scarebear]

43%... oy...

At least I'm a pretty geek. :) Although I have to wear glasses now. :(

[Birdsnest]

30.996~Major geek

Aside from all those other questions, I already knew I was an Accounting geek and I just LOVE to do taxes. I'm a bit of a computer geek, and I love Dr. Demento, hey, but WHO is Velma?

[Sackanaka]

12.82%, I've got geekish tendencies.
I had the urge to punch this test in the face, especially right after seeing that one of the boxes (I think this Geek test is really cool) was checked. Maybe it's my inner geek lashing out.

[Garyincinci]

86% geekiness ><


Checked every box except "Rocky Horror."

I was a cast member in the Original Rocky Horror Internet Picture Show ><

Every Friday night, we would synch up a real audio broadcast with the movie. The "director" would countdown and we would all hit play at the same time. From that moment on, we performed the entire act through text and real audio broadcasting.

Yeah, I'm a geek.

[Anathematized1]

Hmmmm, 48.71795%

Come on, who HASN'T created their own language? Sheesh. Sad thing is, that damned test perked my interest on a few things. Now I'm gonna have to go to the library.

[Crispy]

16.17357% Geek

I think the fact that I used to collect warhammer is my geekiest trait

[misutii]

7 point something percent....That's right, I'm a poser. It just reinforces my "outsider" insecurities. Due to my INTPness I never fit in with the popular mainstream, but I never fit in with the geeks either :cry:

true that, i got 12%, while i have friends who fit into the 'geek' subculture i also have friends who fit into the 'cool' subculture and so with both hating eachother and tugging on me every which way i have resigned to a semi-balanced state between subcultures with no need to want to associate myself further with either. groups = predictable, transparent, shallow, boring - and also i think that i'm in denial of being an attention whore... (can only get someone's undivided attention if with them individually)

[athman]

Only 13.8% geekish tendencies.
But I was once referred to as 'Nerdy' in a newspaper article so I guess that counts for something.

[Helios]

Man ,I feel like a dumb jock, I only got a 1.972%, Then it said I was a poser geek!!!

[athman]

Jude, we minor geeks could form a clique.

[Chall T. Dow]

I'm a Major Geek 37.67258%.

[Heather Harrison]

The test was good, but here is the really fun part of the site:

Go to the "Fun Stuff" section, and fill in all of the words to generate a Custom Geek Story. The results can be hilarious. In spite of filling in all of the parts of speech correctly, grammatical weirdness can still result, but even the screwy grammar is funny.

Here is the story that came out when I put in a variety of random words as they came into my head:

------------------------

A long time ago, there was strife in the kingdom of Terra Mustelarum.
The homeless people wanted their freedom from the weird Great Hierophant. The weird Great Hierophant, however, had different plans. He wanted to deconstruct the homeless people to despise for the Weasel of Doom. The people of Terra Mustelarum gathered in the local whorehouse to dominate the toad. The elder biologist spoke first. We must poison the Great Hierophant, who is now more hysterical than weird!!! Who will join me? I will, shouted Eadweard, the kingdom's salesman. I think your idea is malevolently Weasel of Doom, said the local philosopher. I'm too dreamy for this slime-mold, anyway. SimCity is a better waste of my muon. The GM oiled his uvula on the pumpkin. Lo!! Why don't you go play Kick-the-Nerd with Roundworm-brain if you don't like the way we play Dungeons & Dragons! You're such a Major Geek, Heather.

--------------------------------------

The fact that I couldn't stop laughing when I read this would be quite troubling or totally mystifying to a more "normal" person. I exalt in weirdness.

Try this. It's fun.

Heather Harrison

[Seraph]

4.7%. I think my lack of geekiness is a result of having an ESFP for a brother who constantly pressures me to be cool.

Ironically, I think he would score something like a 30% on this test.

[Star]

How Geeky Are You? (http://www.innergeek.us/)

So geeky that I can't even take the test. It won't open in my browser and the resulting frames-within-frames error makes me want dissolve into the ethernet, trace my way back to the creator of this test and then choke them to death.

"I'm to geeky for this test, too geeky for this test." :whistle:

hmmmm. maybe the test is flawed - i didn't include the numbers to the right of the decimal.

I had to have scored too high.

[cryokinetic]

44% Major Geek

[ApeTheDog]

15 point something percent. Two months ago I wouldn't have known all the role playing questions... they did it to me.

[C.J.Woolf]

[Hexchild]

50.69034% - Super Geek

I had no idea I was that geeky.

[cathmc]

Doesn't seem to work with Opera.
I was pleased to see they had a reasonably broad definition of 'geeky' that went beyond computers and sci fi. I got up to 14% mainly on the strength of love for trivia and literature, and a very geeky knowledge of grammar.
But that's a good point, Opera is a glaring omission. Geek.
Oh, and I refuse to consider going to the movies alone a geeky trait!

never knew roleplaying could lead me too geekdom..... hey anyone know the difference between a geek and a dork???

[FescherAlsDu]

I think it was 24.4714 ro 27.1447. Something along those lines... ;--

[C.J.Woolf]

never knew roleplaying could lead me too geekdom..... hey anyone know the difference between a geek and a dork???
I think geekiness is a matter of one's interests and dorkiness is a matter of one's mannerisms.

My personal definition of geek is someone who is far more into something than I am. :D There are millions of geeks out there who are not called geeks because their interests are mainstream -- sports geeks, soap opera geeks, money geeks, etc.

Damn I wanted a higher score LOL. Must be because I really really don't like Star Trek. That alone takes away like 50% geek points. Damn you ST! ;)

[bluebell]

32.74162&#37; - Total Geek

/end mental rant about the number of significant figures in the result ;)

Very computer/electronics focussed. I would have scored way higher with questions like:

"i know what the mitochondria does" followed by "from reading about it on my own", followed by "and i've talked about it over drinks in a bar"
followed by "and at parties"

and so on... ;)

[Salix]

32.74% Total Geek. I'm disappointed that the test was so Trekkie/Computer biased. Those aren't the only types of geeks around. There's linguistics geeks! There should have been more about RPGs and interests in medieval stuff. I'm a science (specifically biology) geek, and there's PLENTY of webcomics and movies it could have asked about! It was sorely lacking regarding Star Wars too. Nothing about R2D2? Come on! I'm glad I got 5 extra points for being a female geek though. ;)

[Sierim]

31.75542&#37; - Total Geek

Sounds more like a nerd if you ask me...

A lot of questions also seemed to address dork tendencies (ineptitude, social klutziness, etc.).

My Macintosh has turned me into an official one Im suddenly using words like "Application" and "Graphic User Interface" in my everyday sentences...lol

Back in 1995 no Mac user would have admitted to being a geek or that their Mac could possibly turn them into one. Must be a side effect of having a BSD base.


47.92899% Geek (I'm kind of sad that it's so low, but thrilled to have seen "Man or Astroman?" mentioned in the music category!).

It's hard to say which category did me in. Perhaps I just don't get out enough to be a super geek (I don't go to the movies or even watch movies, go to conventions, et cetera...). I'd like to attribute this to the fact that I have a life but...

I don't know about you, but I could take a test on a lot of other non-geeky things and score just as high, if not higher. I do a lot of stuff, as life is nothing more than a constant struggle to fight off boredom.

I blame:

Star Trek/Wars
-and the characters
Roleplaying/D&D
-and the systems
Computers
-and their specs
-and their games
-and their inner workings
Fantasy and Sci-fi fiction
-and movies
-and TV shows
Educational channels
-Damn you Mythbusters
-Damn you MST3K
-Damn you Weather Channel Jazz music
-Damn you Third Reich
Lab-quality crystal ware
-And using it as ale steins
My job
-And how much I enjoy said work
Inner competitiveness
-especially involving analytical skills
Thirst for Knowledge
-and trivia
-including bullshit useless trivia
The wonders of the multiverse
-and their intriguing systems
Genetics
-especially my dad
God
-And other unspecific abstracts


I'm just really, really glad I didn't check too much/anything involving comic books, geek clubs, band camps, cons, or faires.

EDIT: To be fair, I suppose knowing that your name in Binary is a bit geeky.

I voted before I realized there was a test, which ended up being a bunch of gobblygook. Or gobblygeek. Whatever.
