What happens if the IDs run out?
Nobot:
It is possible for Blockland to become uber popular if someone famous went and endorsed it on his videos.
But even if that happened I don't keys would necessarily "run out" maybe just go to like those 1e123 numbers.

33.5 million people? And which "uber popular" people are we talking about?
William Shatner, Ozzy Osbourse, Mr. T, and Chuck Norris and more have "endorsed" WoW and it's nowhere near 33.5m subscribers

The first 5 characters of the key directly translate to your ID. Once this has maxed out (the first five characters reach 99999) getting more keys isn't as easy as "make the number bigger!"

The key system is based on the fact that there will be no more than 33,554,432 different keys, the last key would have the following as its first 5 characters: 99999

The last key would be ZZZZZ-, not 99999-. Nevermind, it would be 99999-, actually. They use a ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ012 3456789 index.
