I am the 2nd best wake player you will ever meet. The 1st is sitting right next to me, playing with his new prostetic leg.

I wasn't under the impression that the 2nd best wake player throws away feature matches, but I guess I was mistaken.

I won $10,000 from winning a chess tournament (Clear 1st out of 230 people).

I'm not saying chess is nerdy but I'm sure it qualifies for this thread.

Wow, I'm pretty sure I have everyone here beat and it's not close.

- 2 degrees from MIT (S.B. Physics S.M Nuclear engineering)
- Here is my old frat: http://xi.tep.org/
- Our nethack clan: http://claneit.org/
- My junkyard wars team "The Geeks" http://jyw.tacorp.net/usseries3/sandyacht/yacht.html

I could probably go on and on. Basically, Weird Al wrote "White and Nerdy" about me. Yes, I also ran a BBS, won gold medals at the state science olympiad, won several high-school chess tournaments, won MIT's largest undergraduate robotics contest, etc.
