Is this a nerd game?

[Hedyn Brand]

It's mass nerdism dressed up as a macho hobby.

And fantasy football is just D&D with a few names changed.

Yes!!!! Good point. Viva le nerd

What isnt a nerd game?

Example.
Playing actual foot ball or playing it on a computer... what is more nerdy?

--

anyways..

Nerd and proud. I have a very long nose for people who are not nerd.

Defensive lineman from forty years ago. With my arthritis, I am seriously paying.

 

[Devantejah]

Erm... You do know that you have to know quite a lot of things to be a professional car mechanic? it's not only "put this here and screw it onto this" kind of stuff.

You'll have to know stuff being a professional whatever, but I don't see why "nerdy" would mean that you don't know as much as a non-nerd.

 

[Lightspeed]

An anagram of "nerdy" is "trendy" without the "t"

Am I being too nerdy?

 

[CMDR PlungedSphere34]

It's a very nerd game.
I am a massive Elite nerd.

I was actually telling my mother earlier about EDtracker.

When she said she was lost, I told her it was just nerd stuff.

I sugar you not, she responded with "I'm one of the cool kids then."

I can't argue with that.

 

[Bostlabs]

Nerd? Sure, so what?
This nerd is also a United States Marine. Weapons platoon. To say this nerd knows how to kill in an understatement.

 

[DragonIV]

Try to explain to someone what makes the game so engaging that you have over 1k hours in it. After a few seconds, their eyes glaze over.

Yes, folks, this is a nerdy game.

 

[AceFlares]

... and now it's an incredibly mainstream activity...

and worse for it...

A friend came over and saw ED on my roomates computer. He asked what it was and got "Ahhh, it's like a space game... flying around, trading, but like, the whole, real galaxy. It's a nerd game."

Is it? I never thought so but maybe being a nerd has blinded me.

Name a non-nerd game for 5 points.

 

[ThunderSqueak]

WAY too much information there Sir...

To be fair.... if the game had anymore realism, and considering how long some of our pilots are out in space without anyone else on the ship, most humans would not bother with clothing after a certain point. Can you imagine just how many naked explorers are out there? They should have underwear as an option for "flight suite"

Nerds rule the world. Look around. The battle is over already, nerds won around 20 years ago - kids now all play in their smartphones and are computer savvy; nerds are the richest people in the world, and so on. So yes embrace your ruling status and enjoy your nerdy pass time

 

[Alec Turner]

Late to this but yeah, my family call Lavecon - "Nerdcon". I can live with that.

 

[Bryan K]

After playing for a year, I can't find a single aspect that isn't nerdy.

It's a nerd game, and that's why I love it!

 

[Saxon Kili]

A nerd is only somebody who is particularly interested in one thing, it's not only about science or space or sci-fi.

You can be a sci-fi nerd as you can be a car nerd or a nerd in any other interest.

Sports nerd.

Yanks are the best sports nerds. More stats than actuall playing.
They do it well to. Easy to get sucked in.

Absolutely. I'm a nerd and proud of it!

 

[CMDR Cosmic Spacehead]

Yup, nerd here.

It's impossible to explain ED to a non nerd / sci fi fan, with making yourself sound like even more of a nerd.

I tried it once, we don't speak anymore.




Because they preferred Pokémon.
