 Double Numbers?

In making the spreadsheet, I've come to notice that in two instances, members of the same fleet have the same numbers.

In both instances, in the Sonic Strength Fleet, and in the Super Speed Flier Fleet, duplicate numbers both have to do with UnForum user FSURobbie.

The other members are Darkreaperluke, and Mephosis. It is possible that either one of them is mistaken about their number, or that numbers were reset for countries outside of the US, as Darkreaperluke is from Germany. Could all of the parties involved please check your numbers and get back to me in this thread?

I made it public because if the case is that the numbers reset for different countries, that's something I think everyone would like to know.

Thanks!

As far as I know, Dibtych also has the double number with somebody. Perhaps the number don't count the player, but have another significance. Or each fleet has its onw number, just not everybody reported here?

Here is the proof that I am not mistaken about the number. I hope we get to make clear what the double numbers mean.

Yes, I suppose, there a system in this numbering. Perhaps one we don't see right now. I hope at least, there is one Very Happy

Cozmopol;

I think Twodten is referring to ones who have the same numbers in the same fleet.

Redudndant Numbers

This may as good of a guess as any other. But I'm guessing that the numbers before the names are either: repeated names and your number is the number of duplicates of that name OR it is the number of deliveries done to that region,state or zip code.

Ok, since Capsmi said he also has a doubled number and dibtych has one too, it seems like there is a context to our region Germany. If Mephosis is also a German, it looks like only Germans have redundant numbers.

I hope this isn't a mistake.

At the moment we have two confirmed double numbers in same fleet according the actually list from twodten:

itīs 142 in Twin Teamwork fleet aka me capsmi/Eleven72 and
itīs 148 in Super Speed flier you aka Darkreaperluke/FSURobbie

and we are both German !

The third is 172 in Sonic Strength with Mephosis/FSURobbie but without confirmed country!

The fourth dibtych has 65 together with Hovercraft but both in differnet Fleets !!!

But Darkreaperluke i share your idea that it has something to do with countrys or maybe areas !?!?

Crazy ..... FSURobbie has tow astronaut names, therfoe two numbers?? Surprised

Perhaps every number has multiples of it for the game, ease of number, etc.


Or, you must find your duplicates and go all highlander on them as there can be only one. Twisted Evil

Yes, FSURobbie registered twice, and he's not the only one. Some people double registered, first with the coupon, and then again when RP.com became open to anyone to register.
