So, how'd you do? Here's the scoring:
0-49: You are barely a NIN fan! Why are you here?! Go out, do some research, buy some more halos, then come back here and take this little quiz again!
50-99: You aren't too much of a NIN fan. You may listen to NIN, but it just doesn't mean that much to you, does it? Does it??!
100-159: You are the average fan. The guy or girl who owns a few halos and a few shirts, but you have better ways to spend your time than to obsess over every NIN-related detail.
160-219: You are a true fan of Nine Inch Nails. You aren't one of those freaky obsessed wackos, but rather a connoisseur of all that is NIN.
220-309: You are one serious NIN fan. You're a full level above everyone who claims to be real NIN fans. In fact, your fandom borders on the obsessive.
310 or above: You are totally obsessed with Nine Inch Nails and should probably be committed to an asylum where they can treat your disorder with straight jackets, padded rooms, and heavy medication. =)
Remember, this little quiz was only for fun. If you were insulted, get a sense of humour. =)
(by the way, my score was 201)
