...Because someone took my part numbers.
Well over a year ago (closer to two years ago, if memory serves), I was given
the range of x460 through x489 for any LDraw file I wrote whose part number I
didn't know. (These are called "temporary part numbers.") I just finished
encoding a part, for which I used three of these temp. part numbers (for a "open
usage" guide). Unfortunately, when I tried to upload these files, the Tracker
told me these numbers were already in use...
What the hey? I thought, I don't recall loading anything with these filenames
yet. So I checked, and discovered someone had been using my numbers (since July
of last year).
Now, since most of the these files he had uploaded were Train parts, I had not
noticed these files before. (I don't have any LEGO Train sets.) Never the
less, these file numbers had been assigned to me, so I have first claim to using
them. >:/
However, I gave the person the benefit of the doubt. I am assuming that he
didn't know he needed to get a range of temp. part numbers from an Admin. I
merely placed "Hold" votes on all of the offending files (instead of
over-writing the ones I needed to use right now).
I really, **really** wanted to upload my files tonight. :( Instead, I'll wait
a fair amount of time (24 hours or so), for the Admins to re-number his files
elsewhere.
