Theoretical discussion on how new names work
Orion:
i could have sworn that it is impossible to change your name to blockhead##### whatever.
a while ago I tried to change my name to my blockhead ID and it wouldn't let me, even though it wasn't taken.
ignore this, just tried it.
you can only change your name to an ID that hasn't been sold yet.

The entire thread is about changing your name to an ID not sold yet...
SWAT One:
I thought of this years ago, but never bothered posting about it. I was wondering when someone would. :P
Zalot:
i'll set one of my spare key names to Blockhead60001 so in the future we can see what happens

Example.
Blockhead60000 but he isn't really blockhead 60000
So when the person who's ID is 60000 comes along they get 60001.

this is what happens
a long time ago (pre-1000) some guy got the name of the next blockhead, so every blockhead after would be one number above what they should be
