The creator of the thread (I don't remember who an the title neither) put a number with many digits and asked us to remember as many as we could. The point was that the number contained years (something like 149217762000) that are important for American history (sorry about the terible description.)

I think I remeber reading it around the middle of March this year, probably in Posers and Puzzles or in General. I don't remember who posted in the thread and the search function didn't help me either. I just can't find it.

If you have read the thread please try to help me: Who posted in this thread, at what date did you read it, who created this thread - or if you can, please post a link to the thread I'm looking for.

When you first posted I did spend 10 so minutes trying to find anything like this. I had never seen the original post. Hope you find it.

Pity you didn't post in it, you only have 16 pages of posts, so it would only've taken a few minutes to find it 😛

Maybe you remember a certain phrase or even sentence with the exact wording?

but always zwo rather than zwei - tausendzwoundzwanzig. and usually in an austrian accent (viennese or styrian). hard to say why.
