A weak 29...and I would have rated myself as a total NO freak. Now I need to go to my cave and imagine what sort of weird exotic birds are the ones of you who scored much higher!
Thanks for the good idea, puts me at my place!

31 points. I could run through the tracklisting to all of the albums if given a bit of thought, but not at the drop of a hat. Also, I don't memorize set lists as such, just aspects of gigs, such as openers or a string of songs in the set. And, I don' own a lot of the offshoot stuff either.

err...30 actually.
I score 40, but somehow I think I should score a lot more, because too many questions are "you host a fansite OTHER than NOOL", so... :D
Wait.. 45, I am a moderator here!! ;)
I would personally give 5 points to some people for their more than generous contribution to this website... seriously !!

is this quiz scientifically valid?
Which other gigs have you seen Christy?

You should get an extra 5 points for designing your own NEWorder necklace![]()
31 - so I gather Im just in love, but this quiz is bullshit. How can I, with 2 gigs and 4 years get higher scores than others with loads more of both.
The Web based aspect is pretty heavy too

I guess that's because I'm a keen NO record collector, I'm into the side projects as much as NO, I moderate a forum on NOOL and I once ran the Monaco site. On the other hand I missed out the WIM section because I don't generally visit that site. You should've put five pointers for anyone having had their own tribute band/covered a NO song, having been to 30 gigs or more, or whether they're a Salvation member ;) that would've made it much more reflective. I agree with Al getting 5 points for NOOL moderation is a bit much.
To be honest I dislike anything which attempts to elevate fans above others, er including this poll really

Good point about the tribute band - only thought of that afterwards - give yourself 5 points if that's you!
Well, if you don't think you deserve 5 points as a moderator don't give 'em yourself... thing is though- moderating implies an ongoing and committed involvement to a NO project, hence 5 points.
If you disagree with a fun way of ranking fanaticism then maybe you should start a campaign to get rid of Forum Ranks...?![]()

MEOW!
Tis only a bit of fun...
Nowt wrong with that - 21 to 40 is a committed, healthy, happy, mentally balanced fan in my humble opinion...

Although to be fair, I'm not as a crazy fan my ranking seems to be.
Creating this website is the reason why I know the album track order, the previous setlists and the lyrics.. as I took the time to write them down for the website!
Otherwise, I'm sure a regular fan, but I did met the band to THEIR request... not my own request.. it's not my fault if Barney decided to get breakfast with us!!
31...so how many short am I, of Barney and hooky having me over for a barbecue..."I like my steak medium Hooky".."so Stevie,which one of these tanks did you get first bud?".."Do that Hamster wheel dance for us Barn,aw go on.." would be a decent day out I reckon,so long as the weather held.. naturally![]()

I'd love to meet NO, but I have mixed feelings about it; what if you found out you didn't actually like them as people, or what if they didn't like you; unlikely I know, but it could spoil your appreciation of their music if you start seeing cracks in the pedestal they stand on in your mind.

And there was me thinking 'moderating' just marked you out as an internet geek?

You'd have to be shorter than about 5'6".
30 - I'm shocked. Though I don't really do the whole bootleg thing. I think you know when you are a hardcore fan when you try and get NO into a conversation with work colleagues...![]()
27 for me, the obsessional behaviour cooled many moons ago and the baton was passed to wee Shuglet who will probably be the first to exceed 55. ![]()

You are right! No one else has one (as far as I know). I should get even more points for the fact my necklace has brushed Barney's armpit ;)
What about quoting New Order lyrics to clients at work?
I have got "seems like we've been here before" (admittedly not entirely correct) and "its an occupation i dont like" in today. ![]()

I have to say that this rates as one of the best polls ever to have appeared on NOOL. Well done Mr Waters. ![]()
