Quote from: Grauniad on November 25, 2011, 02:14:42 AMPlease, stop guessing. There are (232) - 1 = 4 294 967 295 maps.
Everybody who seems to know what they're talking about (beyond guessing at how many numbers can fit in the box) seems to agree with this assessment.

ok, so the entry gets converted to a number, got it. this means FAR less maps. :(
Everything is too long a list to work with.
No one knows everything about anything.
No one knows something about everything.
Everyone knows something about something.
Anyone could be the world's foremost expert on something.
Anyone who thinks that just because they didn't already know a thing, it must not be true or important, is an idiot.

This thread shows that there's not all that many, and finding maps that were the same could very well have happend to somebody without the use of a script to check various combinations.
