Only object numbered is no. 494 WOPR (War Operation Plan Response) from thew movie Ware Games next to Cueball no. 495. It is an character as they speak with each other; as a sentient AI it must be viewed as a character in the comic. |

Each character have been numbered separately in these instances, but never the animals or objects such as the Gravestone at no. 503 or the Flying saucer at no. 515. All the animals interact with a human character in the 11 instances there occurs animals |

There is no relation to any thoughts that Randall might have had of the order. Although when characters seem to interact these have been numbered consecutively. |

For the three zeros the numbering is split into four sections. First the numbering starts left of but close to the top and numbered from left to right top to bottom. But only until the last full line of people over the hole in the zeros. Then the numbering continues only down the right part of the zero, from left to right and down. When reaching the level below the hole in the zero the numbering again begins at the far left of the zero at this level and continues left to right and down, and finally after having numbered the lowest character to the right at the bottom, the numbering continues up on the left side of the zero, starting at the bottom and going left to right and up. This may seem confusing, but the three zeros has been divided into these four segments, so appart from the left side going from bottom and up, each section is somewhat ordered. Also this gives the general idea of going around the zero without actually numbering around, which would be hard to do properly. | For the three zeros the numbering is split into four sections.

The numbers have been assigned using an excel spreadsheet with the image as background. This has been done so any forgotten character discovered later could be added without breaking the order of the numbering. This was clever (as that happened a lot) but it also means that the number of places a number can be written is limited, and sometimes it was hard to assign a number so it was clear which figure the number belongs to. This could thus of course be done better, but the assignment was already huge as it is. However, by looking at the other characters and numbers around a character where the number is ambiguous it should be possible to determine which of these numbers belong to that character by ruling out other numbers as they must belong to other characters. | The numbers have been assigned using an excel spreadsheet with the image as background.

But if someone discovers a characters that seems to miss a number please write in the comments below on this page, and maybe write a [[User talk:Kynde|personal message to Kynde]]. Then maybe it can be fixed. |
