(...) FYI I did type in 1 through 8 and expected to see the latest McD promo's. After all, that is the most obvious number on there. Just because it's a single digit does not take away from it's significance as a set identifier. KL (24 years ago, 28-Sep-00, to lugnet.general, lugnet.admin.database, lugnet.promo)

while I agree that the numbers don't seem quite right, I don't think it really matters... my reasoning is this: The numbers are entered in the DB only so people can find the sets they're looking for.
