6 is really unbearable. always claiming to be perfect, and the square root of 2 can be really irrational. 1 is boring, 2 is bipolar and a bit frightening. I am way too ordinary a guy to go in for the transcendentalists such as e and pi. Googol changed his name to google and now snoops around my email. I think I will go with 5. A nice solid prime sort of guy, a bit odd but then so am I.

 

although when things get complex, 5 can have other factors to consider

1 is boring

 

I hate to disagree again, Ken, but one is the loneliest number that you'll ever do. Two can be as bad as one, it's the loneliest number since the number one.

 

Number nine, number nine, number nine.

 

In the year 2525....

 

However, eight days a week, I lo-o-o-o-ove you.

 

But my best advice is no matter what:

 

Ricky don't lose that number, you don't want to call nobody else. Send it off in a letter to yourself. Ricky don't lose that number. It's the only one you own. You might use it if you feel better, when you get home.

Obviously 655321 is the most beautifull.

 

I'm into praticality however, so 60 is my number.

 

It is divideable by 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 10, 12, 15, 20 and 30.

 

There is a reason why noone ever tries to change the way we meassure time.

I had to delete a few options because of some technicality from the board rules. I admit though that I forgot about the golden mean. Also maybe the magic angle (arccos(sqrt(1/3)))? Well, too late now. The 'wtf gwnn' option has been intentionally omitted.

I'm a bit surprised that neither 53,644,737,765,488,792,839,237,440,000 nor 128,745,650,347,030,683,120,231,926,111,609,371,363,122,697,557 were offered as options. However, like some other posters, I prefer 5. I guess it's a sign of personal weakness.
