Anyway, back in the old days when the 'net was young, we only had The Hacker Test.

24.06312% not very geeky...

Edit: 22 years later my geekiness has improved to 29.5203% - Total Geek. Should have an extra bump for rereading a necrobumped thread and redid the test (as a moderator)

The fact that I....

  • Seen this necro bumped thread, from 2003, but still read it.
  • Took the time to still do the linked "Geek Test", that was last updated in 2010, but still works.
  • Then realized after the fact I may have taken this test before, and forgot, becasue the site is buried in my old bookmarks and it stirs some dormant memory...

Getting "62.36162% - Extreme Geek" makes perfect sense. 🤣

Even though this is a very extreme necrobump and we usually close those, I'll leave this open to earn more geek points. Or would I gain more geek points by vigorously closing necrbumped threads?
