^Naw, just a five or higher. :P

I'd say I'm a nine. You can get nerdier than me, but it's an achievement. Let's see, I've written fan fiction, put a large amount of effort into getting Enterprise back, never put on a costume but I do have a bunch of starships laying around, I have a handful of novels, I guess that's about it.

The one think I do not do is amass collectibles, wear costumes or put on the makeup.

Sorry, you got to wear the costumes to be a 10. :P

Well, you don't have to wear costumes to be a 10, but you might be something else if you do. :w00t:

This is so hilarious..

Costumes for sure...are level 10

So...what if you have attended a convention?? (Which I did in 1975 or so)

What about naming pets after ST characters...

Maybe your post count should be factored in...

What if you sent $ to the SE/TU campaign??

I put 8 -

Watched all the series and movies and have many on DVD...been to a few conventions. I own a tribble and some Romulan Ale, TOS mugs, etc. Never wore or owned a costume and don't think I ever would. Bought a full weekend ticket to FedConUSA - the bucks I dropped for that probably justifies my 8 alone :lol: .

I've done that several times. Let's see... there was Hoshi, Beverly, Tasha, and Erika is sleeping about a foot away from me. She's next to Cally, who is named after a BSG character.

I have forty five or six star trek comic books (most of the just magazines with star trek comic books Ifound on the internet), have four books, and two technical manuals and a klingon dictionary!!!

Judging by the scale 1 (normal everyday yaddy yadda) and 10 (trek nutthouse headmaster), i would give myself a 5.
I did draw Constitution class ships (in shaded 3-D technique) and i have bought many games of the genre (star trek: a final unity, star trek: elite force, star trek: armada, star trek: away team, star trek: bridge commander, starfleet command, star trek: generations and there is one that i can't remember the name of... The game was a part of collectors pack containing 4 games), as well as playing a RPG character on Labacensis forum and having a character on the Star Trek Online (yeah, i prefer to be able to influence the events as oposed to just watching them unfold), but the path to eternal trekdom ends there.
