Eggy - XP doesnt like final fantasy VII

is there any set amount of numbers for a reasearchers number? cause i wrote a peice of code to find all the combination that make 42 from 5, 6 and 7 digit numbers. took a while to run, but it was worth.

At the moment its 6 digits, I guess when we get up to our 10 millionth member we'll need 7 though...

And roughly when we take over the planet we'll need 8...

Although IMHO that takes the fun out of it somewhat smiley - biggrin
