What do you guys think, any favorite numbers, any you hate? Like 57, its just stupid :)
Only positive integers from 0 to 100?

If we would allow all real numbers, I would surely include pi and -1 in the top 100.

Since you already have 10 in there at position 4, I would say there is nothing so special about 100 that it deserves to be higher up than - say - pi.

So I would assign 3.14159 to position 7.

I think I would include -1 at position 8.

That is fair, I should have titled it "Integers 0-100"

As for 100, its such a lovely number, not as garish as 1,000 but more confident than 10.

I always feel 51 is underrated.

Also 63 being in 63rd place. I think that deserves a higher ranking ;)

Many good ones, agreed – but shouldn't be 6 on 66? Or 66 on 6? And of course 42 much more in front – it's 101010, dude!
69 should be high up!
For me, 7 and 77 should rank higher

How could you put 57 last? It is the year of birth of my father…
What 91 and 95 did to you? They are not in the list. And 97 gets to enjoy two places. It is just not fair!
