Nerd Tests!

Nothing changes the fact that your test results said that your a DORK, and yes English is my native language!

From what I can make out've the DUMB/DORK/AWKWARD score, DUMB is the least and AWKWARD is the most.

DUMB is: 0-40
DORK is: 40-80 (you scored 60, which is the halfway)
AWKWARD is: 80-100

That's not the way foward slashes work in this context. Given their previous use for things like History/Literature it's obvious that the slashes mean that it is a percentail of those combined sets. I really hope you're not trying to be serious when you claim otherwise.

I don't really care how my slashes dots and dashes go when I'm typing here, I don't have to type as well here as I do when I'm doing other things.

That has absolutely nothing to do with the current conversation.

...Which is what I replied to!

And yeah, I am being serious when I claim otherwise...

...Cause I know I'm (somewhat) right!

This needs to come back to topic, it's about nerd scores being posted you know .

Very true, in fact I might take the version 2 nerd test. If I do, I will tack up my results here in this thread.

Take the test dude!

My new v2.0 score, it took me a while to do it this time (29 minutes). Using my brain (which is usually switched off) to think about the answers properly when answering, unlike last time I rushed it (less than 20).



Such a pity that being in the "Awkward" category is a bad thing (according to Quzar)

You still don't seem to understand. The category is not "dumb or dork or awkward" it is Dumb/Dork/Awdkward. It shows what percent of that amalgamated category you are.

It still makes no sense if they are combined thou, I think there is something wrong with the test if it's not "dumb" "dork" or "awkward" set separately like how I see it should be. Because "dumb" does not even categorize into the other two? I like my theory better although it's wrong, as dumb has no real place in the scores that I've received from the test and I don't feel it should be in the amalgamated/combined category section.

I have no idea how they decide the outcome of this test, because I just took approximately 2 minutes answering the questions wrong on purpose and the red bar is 99%. There is something really messed up with the test, I scored higher than this (below)...



...And my red bar is 6 less (below)

With a score of 100 99 98 99, my red bar should be non-existent or at least half (like yours) if the red bar is a bad thing ???



It's messed up!

Dumb is a distinct thing from ignorant or unknowledgeable. The latter two indicate a lack of facts, which is indicated by low scores on the first 4 things. The former is synonymous with stupid, and indicates "Tending to make poor decisions or careless mistakes".

That definition fits in well with both Dork and Awkward. The problem could stem from the fact that the american colloquial use of the word dumb comes from the german (dumm, which literally means stupid), where you might be thinking of the use of dumb to mean something along the lines of retarded or mute.
