I noticed that the URL’s of our profiles are in numerical order of when we registered! And of the 6,285 members here (as of now), I am #930… What number are you?

Here are the first 20 folks to register:  
[ol]  
[li]Lynn Bodoni _Administrator_[/li][li]Dan Kaplan _Administrator_[/li][li]dunl _Administrator_[/li][li]jkeene[/li][li]Ed Zotti _Administrator_[/li][li]jcrandall _Administrator_[/li][li]SDStaffKen[/li][li]SDStaffWildBabe[/li][li]jimboy _No Status - Never Posted_[/li][li]VegForLife[/li][li]Songbird[/li][li]Melis[/li][li]Monty[/li][li]Cyberian54 _No Status - Never Posted_[/li][li]Cyberian55[/li][li]WildBabe[/li][li]Ian Rey[/li][li]CKDextHavn _Administrator_[/li][li]Mike Lenehan[/li][/ol]  
Other notable milestone numbers include:  
#100 Pamela  
#500 DoctorRay _No Status - Never Posted_  
#1000 Jeano  
#1500 topolino  
#2000 jazzmine  
#2500 Bible Hero  
#3000 LonesomePolecat  
#3500 FARQART  
#4000 cowboy  
#4500 MarioC _No Status - Never Posted_  
#5000 funkywinkerbean84 _No Status - Never Posted_  
#5500 Oblong  
#6000 AwesomeCosmicPowers  
#6285 notquitekarpov

The last person is our most recent registrant!

Interestingly enough, there is no #1, and somehow Lynn Bodoni managed a time-space breech by having her date be later than others listed (I still think she is the first registrant here).

So what number are you? And what number is your sock puppet? 😃

Okay, this is my first venture back into the fray after a self-imposed sabbatical. I looked into my profile and I didn’t see any number listed. You say it is based on the IP address, so maybe it will show up after I post this.

BTW, I see that while I was gone, you hit the 3000 mark. Belated congrats!

If you click on your profile, the number at the end of the URL is your number, the order you registered in…

1. 

Not a bad number.  
In fact, it makes me part of the first 26% of people to have joined the board.

Presumably you have to post something to see the URL for your number.
