There are roughly 20,000 HN users, and < 2000 days since it started so I think this method is more accurate.

If someone signed up very recently then they aren't in the db yet.

Anyway, it's just a gimmick but I thought it was a fun one.

The tagging feature is quite useful actually, feel free to help out by tagging stuff.



If you wanted accuracy you would have used days and then first post, so people that registered a day early would always have a lower ID.


Sorry, would should be could.
