This week's topic was selected by ctuna.

I was perhaps presumptious in posting this without an official ruling, but I wasn't sure I'd be able to post later tonight.

While these dates are not yet significant, I believe they will be. So far, only one date has been numerically significant in a similar way (January 1, 1111), and since that date has been played thoroughly, I chose a different number theme (reversely sequential).

Regarding 1/11/1111, I doubt anyone noted its significance way back then, especially since the current (Gregorian) calendar wasn't in force until 1582. So even if someone thought about it, it wasn't on the same day we recognize it today.

(Please excuse the poor linking in this thread; I'll try to get back to it later and clean it up when I figure some things out.)

The winner (best total score) gets to pick next weeks theme.
If we have the same winner as last week, the runner up (#2)
will pick the theme.

See here for the rules, an overview of themes and previous

Please post your progress/total scores in this topic, to ease
calculations at the end of the week.
