Team Twenty.
Or sometimes, when we're feelin' goofy:

Team Twunny.

So, that makes it official. Henceforth, you shall always be referred to as "Team One Hundred".

Guys, I was joking. "Team one hundred" is the real way. Although if you want to call us that, go right ahead.


We always used to joke that because 254 used to be very strict about being pronounced "two five four" instead of "two fifty four,"* we should start calling them "team twenty five four" and us "team ten zero."

Two-forty. Pretty straight-forward.

I've experienced both of these phenomena being on Five Six Two and Thirty-Six Twenty-Three. I've also been known to say Three Six Two Three though.

Looks like we were in the minority of not going by "two twenty-three" and instead going by "two two three"

It seems to me that this thread is just a verification of one of the unwritten rules of linguistics when it comes to English and numbers...by and large, people say things how neurolinguists predict they will!

usually two-thirty-four.

sometimes two-three-four.

and recently, once,
twenty-three-four.

Most of the time - "two two five"
Occasionally - "two twenty-five"

On our team (195) We usually say One-Nine-Five....but occasionally hear us called "one ninety five" and we are good with that too :)

Re: How do you say your team number?
 
"forty nine OH one"

Which is funny because my old team number was.

"Eleven OH two"

Re: How do you say your team number?
 
eighteen oh two = 1802

Re: How do you say your team number?
 
On 177 we usually say "one-seven-seven." But then again, I never hear anyone on my team say the number, so I could be dead wrong.
