I scored what I did because not only do I have the First and Second Edition handbooks for GURPS, I also have at least two dozen of the manuals for different worlds ... Space, Fantasy, Old West, Illuminati, The Prisoner, etc.

My Gamemaster in college developed his own system which he called UUT ... Unified Universe Theory. Before that we were playing AD&D on some nights, Traveller on others.

And yes, I have the Players and GMs guides for all of those.

And Call of Cthulhu.

And Dr. Who.

And Star Wars

And Paranoia.

And Top Secret.

And Rolemaster.

And Spacemaster.

And Shadowrun.

And Xena.

There really should have been a way for me to get more points for these.

I knew what it was, but not the acronym, so I didn't check the box.

Now that I look it up, here it is:

I find it amusing that someone with a net nanny has the word "orgasm" in their sig line.

Clod, maybe he doesn't know that's in his sig line. Somebody put it in there as a prank unknown to him, like taping a "kick me" sign on someone's back.

Now that I consider plthihijinx's posts, nah.

39.2% Major Geek.

And I won a GURPS tournament
At a Game Con.
The first weekend I ever played the game.
I won a hardcover copy of the GURPS rule book
And read it cover to cover
Multiple times.

That one weekend got me lotsa geek points.

And I got 5 extra boxes for being a girl. (woot!)

46.7% I took 2 checks for being a girl part time; it doesn't seemed to change it that much.

I have a CS PhD, endless consumer electronics and board gaming, but no role playing nor Star Trekness. Yesterday, for the first time, I sold a Magic Card on E-Bay, that should count for something.

Looks like Wolfie got most of her points in areas I got no points. You go girl!

Actually, at the time of this writing, my software is running at a site called MajorGeeks.com.
