What makes this number so magic? The Hebrew mathematical equivelant for the devil is 666, this number is off by around 700,000

Because it's 666,666. That's two 666's.

You know what, just play along, will you? :D

You'll have to stay up and watch for it then. I'm going to sleep.

Hi!
I got surprised when I saw messages in my inbox, since I'm new here, even not sent a single message. Messages with titles like "member #666,666" seemed me a little tricky. I thought them spams at first :). When I saw this topic, I just could realize what's going on.

Thanks a lot for this special welcome!

PS: That's true, I googled my account name, got surprised.

Burnt Beans also have the user ID. I would assume those removed got a SPAM BAN.

The ID 666,666 user is this:

Stop the press.
666 is not the number of the beast according to latest research.
It's 616.
See here. http://qi.com/talk/viewtopic.php?start=5&t=3049
It's also got lots of interesting fact about the number 666.
Anyway welcome to the forum.
