Armadillo Run forum

Is it just me or is it getting increasingly hard to find the latest competition because roman numerals don't order properly. I realise that we can't use numbers but why not AAA, AAB, AAC ... AAZ, ABA, ABB, ABC, etc? That'd cater for 17,576 competitions. For example: ARFC_A_AAA_MyLevel.

I think your solution can be even worse...

Just imagine:
"Hey, I have seen a similar solution in the FRS contest... Oh, wait, it was the FSR!" - "No you wrong, it was RSF" - "Maybe SFR??"

Or:
"Ok, let's see where is the last level: Uhhhmmm, here is a WVV, but there i saw a VWV.... Mmmmmm, hey, look at that VMW!!"


Many of you here can program in C, Java, know about differential equations, roman numbers are not so difficoult, listen to me!
BUT, if you feel in trouble with that poor V, L, X and I, you can use this:

and be ashamed of youself!

Well if that's the case why don't we just use binary? We could use the letters O and I and at least they would order correctly.
