Any opinions on how LUGNET member #'s should be allocated/assigned?

After being away for the weekend of the 4th and coming back and reading
through the dozens of posts on this, I just said "Whew, I gotta go on vacation
longer so I can miss stuff like this more often" ;-)

Todd, I've changed my mind about this(1) and it seems like the best case that
can be made is that you give out desired numbers to those whom you feel have
helped out as thanks to them for specific Lugnet projects, and everyone else
in order of appearance, just like in the movies. Ask each person whom you feel
should get one via private email. Once you've done that, then just crank out
the rest.

A fact of life is that some movie credits are just less glamorous than others
due to the amount of participation in a film. But I could live with the credit
"Spamcake Cop #1", "Man In Line" or "109". I was a Lugnet beta tester, at the
very end of beta testing, but that and $1.25 will get me a cup o' joe at
Denny's. :)  Lugnet has been much more helpful to me that I have been to it.

(...) I'd kinda like a number that would make me seem like the slightly over-the-hill but still big-name actor who has a decent-sized role. You know, the guy who is always "and Name" at the end of the intro to the tv show. (26 years ago, 7-Jul-99, to lugnet.admin.general)

Any opinions on how LUGNET member #'s should be allocated/assigned? Here are some possibilities: - One possibility is simply to start at 1 and count upward on a first- come, first-serve basis, one number at a time. (I think this might be what ICQ (...)
