Re: What's special about your team number?

868 defines time. No, really.
The oldest dated printed book was printed in 868.
868 is the area code for Trinidad and Tobago.
There is a restaurant in Cambridge, Ma called "Miracle of Science Bar & Grill", whose telephone exchange is 868.
When Googling for 868, click on page 5 and you will find a link about antimatter whose summary, URL, and page do not contain the character sequence "868"
DD-868 is a ship also known as USS Brownson, who took part in Operation Highjump, a training mission in Antarctica, which has since become the topic of many UFO conspiracy theorists.
868 Towers Offices and Hotel is a 331 meter that will be built in Haikou, China.
There is a minor planet orbiting the sun named 868 Lova.
ZigBee operates at 868 MHz in Europe.
868 is a number in Lozanić's triangle
Sadaharu Oh, a Japanese baseball player, hit 868 home runs in his career.
There is a town in Mexico called El Control, in the 868 area code. (Not the Trinidad and Tobago one.)
The Northrop Alpha had a useful load of 868 kg.
2-Perf film has a film area that is 0.868" wide.



Is that special enough?

And whoever said 1439 wasn't unique, check this out.

191 is a number n for which n, n+2, n+6, and n+8 are all prime.

Re: What's special about your team number?

166 is the number of monotone Boolean functions of 4 variables. (whatever that means)

Also. 166 in Roman Numerals uses all of the digits up to C in order from largest to smallest.

CLXVI <-- that's cut into our arm this year

The weird thing about our team number is that it is the detention room at our school.

It's also the year that breaks Microsoft's File Allocation Table date stamp AND ISO 2108 is apparently the foundation of ISBN (International Standard Book Numbering) which provides unique identification for published works.
