Yesterday I done a terrible thing.
Something that keeps seeming to happen no matter how much I try to hide it.
I'm a nerdy geek.
And was long before it was fashionable.
Please forgive me, but I just can't help it.
Therefore I propose to help all other nerdy geeks by helping them "come out" without the pain I have suffered.. So please if you know someone who likes to roll dice, run around in fields and caves in armour, or who knows what thac0 is then urge them to step up and claim their nerdy crowns today!

I once assisted in the casting and construction of a cannon! I've never LARPed nor have I (much to my deep regret) played D&D.
My claim to nerdy fame is a deep enjoyment in reverse-engineering file formats used by games. HXD open, notepad filled with esoteric scribblings... bliss! Many a modding community has been kickstarted by my meddling  |

"Nerdy geek" as you put it is confusing in this day and age..
Modern Geek is chic!
Old geek is now nerd!
Old nerd is now ?????
You can be a geek now with sponsorship getting paid hoards of cash for geeking out at a high level. Or be a consultant in your geeky subject at the top of your game getting paid well while feeling the warm cosy blanket of admiration from your peers.

I go one step further than nerd or geek.
I'm a Dinosaur. If I could use pen & paper, an abacus and smoke signals, I would.
Well, not too much but in this day and age, it annoys me that everyone thinks that everyone is 100% up to speed with technology and so on. Some of us aren't! Some of us need time. |

We have recently bought T.I.M.E Stories, really enjoying this game so far.
We love a good board game and we organise a get together every month to play Twighlight Imperium. That to us is hardcore haha

I've only ever apologised once in my life for being a geek.
I was truly sorry when that lady sat down in my lap. How was I to know my twelve sided dice in my pants pocket would poke her so hard?

"omg...when you thought creating a balloon flying across the screen was cool.  "
I remember spending the better part of two days transcribing code onto an Amstrad 6128. Finally, 20,000 lines later... error on line 8.  |

"Bloodbowl is back.
I'm trying to find my original wood elf squad.  . Lead, they're all plastic now aren't they? "
Not played that in years. Though I backed a kickstarter project called rumbleslam which looks very similar, but in a wrestling setting. |

I need to see this. . I must.
I wish I had the original game box. Moving homes has a lot to answer for with losing some cool stuff.
Are your teams from old, or are you just getting into it now? |

Do a search, think marauder do quite a few teams, we also have thier chaos dwarfs and wiggles is mad about goblins.
We got ours last time it came out and our daughter was born mid match lol. The store roster sheet actually documented result as "match stopped due to goblin coach giving birth" we have her a free goblin player too |
