    You know Blizzard is doing an Open Beta on Diablo 3 this weekend if you already have a battle.net account. For everyone who hasn't fully decided to buy it or not
    Bought it during that 1 year of WoW sub for free Diablo thing. I stopped playing WoW shortly after that for Skyrim. Guess I know what I'll be doing on the weekend... :drinker:

    I just returned to WoW lol

    Any kind of geek. Star Wars, Doctor Who, Star Trek... ANYTHING

    Let's let our geeks out!!

    My biggest geek love is Doctor Who.

    Pretty geeky. I work in IT and am into computers and games (mmorpg, fps and all that jazz).

    Love Doctor Who (and also Torchwood). Also a pretty big Buffy fan. Love BSG, Caprica, Game of Thrones.

    I dabble in computer repair and Android phone hacking/modding. That makes me a geek/gearhead, I guess.
  • Yes! I am a big fan of Star Wars, Star Trek, Stargate, BSG, comics, and games like WoW and TOR :)

    Anyone ever watch Red Dwarf?

    The greatest parody of the Sci Fi genre! My secret love as a teen was Lister (not sure if I spelled his name right).

    Star Trek, Battlestar Galactica, Firefly, Stargate

    Watched them all. I'll pretty much watch anything Sci-Fi.

    Same!!

    I am a geek for so many things! Mostly math and space :smile: I am almost done with school to become a Physicist/Astronomer, then I can be a geek and get paid for it :laugh:

    YAAAAAY I did not expect so many responses!!!

    I have to wonder, with so many people listing Firefly and how many I know that LOVED the show, WHY WAS IS CANCELLED.

    I'm a huge fan of Joss Whedon. Anyone else watch Dr Horrible?

    I joined the Geek group and certainly didn't mean to be "exclusive" by making this thread. Apparently I have a lot to learn about these boards- sorry!!

    Thanks to those who friended me!!


    mmmmmmmmmm Firefly, and yes, we love Doc horrible in our home, can't wait for more!

    Re you kidding me!?! Red Dwarf saved my childhood! without it I wouldn't be nearly as interesting, insane or quirky.

    I still have a tiny spot for Lister in a very dark corner in my soul.

    Chess is an Olympic sport. it does not make you a geek. It makes you a thinker, something we are severely lacking these days

    I watched BtVS the other day while sewing and I remember now why it made my heart squee. On top of that - in the 4th season, Spikes spends the majority of the episodes with his shirt off... I'm very okay with that.

    Most definitely.
    All of the above.

    ...but at the risk of starting a controversial discussion....

    Star Trek > Star Wars

    Seconded :happy:

    After coming from a disillusioned childhood where I thought Star Wars vastly superior, as I have grown, so has my intellect - and along with that, my love of Star Trek. Now, because of the vast destruction of my childhood memories at the hands of the vile Lucas, I can't remember when I last saw a Star Wars movie - but I watched Enterprise for 8 hours yesterday.

    I just wanted to point out that my 5 and 8 year old girls are totally addicted to Doctor Who, and have almost finished off the backlogged netflix queues. Probably won't introduce them to torchwood, now I need to see if I can get them into say star trek... although they seem to be more inclined towards star wars...

    I'm going to assume I'm raising them right when they'd rather watch doctor who than the Disney channel :bigsmile:

    Any other suggests for them, since we're on the geek subjects? Not sure on BSG, but I think they might like Firefly... sadly my 8 year old wants to watch the walking dead... but I'm not so sold on her watching that yet, I'm not sure her nightmares are as composed as she is :D

    Also, any of you geeks want to add me, I'm all for it... :happy:

    I guess I could be considered geeky.

    I am a Network Engineer, Software Developer, Database Analyst, handy at most sections of Information Technology. Current employment position as a Software Development Director.

    I like LOTR, old school Star Trek, and definitely a Star Wars fan.
