Levels of geek

[PyroChamber]

Is there a such thing as there being different levels of being a geek?

 

[The Last Meatbag]

Yeah.

 

[The Chairman]

Most definitely.

 

[Mic]

Yep.

 

[DV8]

absolutely . . .

 

[unstoppable]

YES and i consider myself bout a level 4 not as crazed as level 5 but i still know what i'm talkin bout

 

[Immortalfire]

Absolutely there are.

 

[J. J. Jameson]

Sure...I wouldn't consider myself the highest level of geek, but am pretty geeky none the less. On a scale of 1 to 10, 10 being uber geek, I would say I'm a 7.

 

[Mic]

Perhaps we should create some kind of diagram to correlate the different levels of geekdom.

A pie chart maybe or even a graph! Oh oh oh!!! Ill get my compass. Gosh, golly this will be fun.

A Pie chart wouldn't work in this situaton at all, you son of a *****.

Thats a ****ing lie. We could measure the percentage of geek compared to normalness for each individually level of geek! Then we can visuallise this through the power of the Pie!

How would you measure it exactly? Knowledge of computers and fictional characters? Scrutiny of every movie, tv show, video game and book that's released?

On that note, take the how geeky are you quiz.

Definitely different levels of geekness. I think it's more of a category thing than a level, in my opinion. Though once you branch out into the certain categories of geekness YOU CAN then implement the level modes.

As I am...a comic book geek. And I'm a level 4 geek on the comic book level. With there being 10 levels of geekness involved with EACH category.

 

[Mic]

The only way we will resolve this and set up a proper catagory system is to set up some kind of Coucil of Elders, ill grab my wizard hat and robe. I elect myself as leader (as I am a level 40 druid) and we shall vote on council members. After we destroy the one ring, we shall have punch and pie. Then set up the graphs.

those questions are mainly tech based and don't account for the traditional geeks

 

[tzarinna]

Well thank god the furries are low on the list.

 

[Darthphere]

Oh man.

 

[Elijya]

how far down are you, Darth?

 

[Darthphere]

how far down are you, Darth?

Ive pretty much done everything listed except the star trek related stuff, but im on pretty much on the 3rd tier from the top, since ive never been published.

Hmm, being an uber-geek? I'd say that it depended on what we're talking about. Certain films, books, vid-games - that definitely applies to me.

If you own one of these, I'd say that you were pretty close to the top level.

 

[terry78]

Companies are fully aware of who to capitalize on when it comes to marketing stuff: The urban crowd, the female crowd, and the geek crowd. Those three always pan out when it comes to demographics.
