Yeah, I'll admit to that. It does seems a tad silly if you think about it too long, that's why I don't and just bask in the glory if being one of the first people here. And hey, people stand in lines for iPhones a week before it comes out, at least I just waited a few hours in the comfort of my own home. :D

I'm going to second that one.
Now that I've had time to bask in the new website, I can finally consider going to sleep.

Before you go to sleep can you help me get this stupid grin off my face? Use force if you like. Just no knives. Or magic tricks involving disappearing pencils.

How to know you're a real nerd?
you calculate the approximate time it takes for the jock to catch the geek while the jock's friend is dunking your head in the toilet...oh no, wait...this is real life.
I have no idea...how DO you know?
nvm, superzero hit it on the head Jumping between a Star Trek site and a super hero site at almost 4am. You didn't have to tell me I'm a nerd, it's all too obvious.

This is epic on so many levels. I have never seen so many people Nerd Rage in my life.
These peopel are most likely to pilot ships without escape pods. Instead they will Self Destruct at the first sign of a battle. They will fly black ships.

I have serious problems? Nope. I'm here having fun with nerds.
See the thing with nerds is this. They are very social as long as it is on the internets. I'm like the croc hunter of the internet. Bringing you views of strange and exotic creatures only seen in such places.

I don't know if im a nerd. I discovered Star Trek about 2 years ago when I was sick from school for a week. And I love it ever since (NCC-1701-D) yeah I might be a nerd when I can memorize the Enterprise's serial code. But I have a gf.

- You remember that "Y-390" isn't Yeoman Rand's cabin number because they made fun of it in that SNL skit.
- Next time you watched a TOS episode with Rand in it and saw her door, you looked at the door number to see what it actually was.
- You know the in-story reason that explains why Klingons now have head ridges (or, more accurately, why TOS Klingons didn't.)
- You can even note that saying TOS Klingon's didn't is more accurate than to say newer ones do.
- You thought, "That's completely unlikely" when B'Elanna Tores beat up that Vulcan dude on heat, when in fact Vulcans have 10x the strength of humans, but that Klingons sure don't.

You frequent the wondrous land of Slashdot.
You keep up on the blogs of many game developers.
You write a blog on MMO Development/Community Management.
You create a fansite for an MMO shortly after its announced (or re-announced, anyway).
You mention the fansite on a thread like this as a thinly disguised way of getting attention for it.
