what is your nerdiest accomplishment/claim to fame?
Having over 10,000 posts on an online forum does not qualify =P
I'm curious as to how many national calculus champs we have lurking on 2+2.. edit- example: I know one guy who has a geometric theorem named after him. One of my friends can solve a rubix cube in 10 minutes, while another was in the national spelling bee. |

I paid my way through a year of university by playing computer games.
I was UK captain at the first World Cyber Games (in Seoul), and played in the precursor the year before. I also spent a year writing about competitive online computer games for a living. Go me! |

I assume working in the IT industry doesn't count?
If it doesn't, I don't have any nerdly accomplishments, sorry. |

Doesn't matter, with just a couple of days practice I'm sure most people could do it in under two minutes. It's just memorisation of algorithms.
Apologies for being somewhat nitty, I just wanted to point out that ten minutes isn't at all impressive. Carry on. |

I never did anything big...nothing that is my 'claim to fame' but freshman year I did win the Earth Science part of the Science Fair. "Humans and their affect on the Ecosystem". I bs'd my way through the whole thing. But I did win a little trophy type thing and got to go to the State Science Fair.

Everytime I "accidentally" killed a child in Iraq I said "BOOM! HEADSHOT!"
