At that point, it's WAY beyond the alert phase. Authorities have cordoned off his neighborhood to prevent his nerdiness f/ seeping out into the general community. (It's kind of too late for Redmond though... (home of Microsoft.))

And when the Nerd Alert bell is sounded by posters on a game website, you KNOW its trouble.

And on a strategy gaming website, no less. ;)

Anyway, that's quite impressive, but IMO there are plenty of things that you could do in a month that are more impressive than a video game record. :hmm:
