Today I had some GG parts from Cam@ecigz.co.uk in my mail. Cam should be still in the game, but I think Imeo is the only one who knows exactly.
How many numbers are allowed ?
I ask because some may like their birth date, so 6 numbers are needed.
2 digits for day, 2 for month and 2 for year.
This would be real personal to each person.

No i can post myself
I saw, 33 and 99 are taken. if so, please reserve the following 3 numbers:
smokieego: 40, 343 and 1000 - e-smokeguru
for me (If one of the three is taken, 35 is the spare number)

With the planned production of the GG P&P, Imeo has agreed to accept requests to reserve serial numbers. Please understand that when you requesst a serial number to be reserved for you, you are effectively making a commitment to buy that piece that bears that number.
Eventhough you are committing to buying a certain piece or pieces in some cases, this is still a request thread!
Imeo alone reserves the right as the maker to determine which numbers go to which reseller. Anyone selling or bartering their reserved number away publicly will see that number go back into the pool for being reserved by another person! There is a time gap of up to two months though and "real life happens"!
If you run into a a situation that would prevent you from keeping your commitment here, simply post that here. If it is a low number you feel would go quickly, make sure you PM me as well so I can closely inspect all requests for the released number and it will go to the first request after the number has been released.
It isn't feasable to keep multiple lists with numbers pre-requested just in the event they come available. Also remember this is a commitment that affects your resellers business! Imeo is offering to make these based on your commitment to buy them. Once shipped, the completion of the sale is with the reseller, not Imeo!
Imeo sets the prices before hand but the actual purchase is with the reseller! Not being mean here but this is business. Imeo is offering us a wonderful chance here so please understand the basic ground rules before you ask for a number to be reserved!
Also note that from the time of this thread, the existing "list" will be imported to this thread. This will be the only place to guarantee requests for a number reservation will be made!
As the number list will show, the numbers listed are on a first come, first served basis. That simply means that if 3 people have asked for #7, it will go to the poster whose request was time stamped the earliest by the ECF post time stamp!
This can be a lot of fun if we let it! Thanks in advance to those that have helped pull this together as well as Silverrocks who is going to help insure my listing is correct. Make sure you include your authorized reseller with your request! Also note that it will be your responsibility to let your seller know when purchasing that you are <ECF username>! The list will be available to them but they can't read your mind and if you fail to provide the needed information, they can't ship you a particular item.
EDIT: A big thanks to Kami for the help organizing the list on this effort!Also - If you are unsure of the name of your reseller for whatever reason, simply put the country you are ordering from! While I know many, many of you, as this progresses, the list will get into the hundreds at least. Searching each request for this information is not going to be posible so help us help you by providing your reseller OR your country by a post to this thread!

I don't know what you guys' thoughts are, but in order to prevent some high priced resell for " popular" numbers, maybe we all should only be allowed to request/order 1 unit?
Also, I saw a bunch of threads where ppl ordered for their friends, it makes it a bit confusig updating the list. Wouldn't it be easier if only the registered user him/herself requests one number which is still available?
This are just some suggestions to make it easier
Also, it may be easier if Imeo starts with. # 0 going up; of course I don't know for sure but if the numbers go all over the place from 1-5630 (just an example) we have a bunch of empty spots. Sorry, I'm a bit OCD, hence I'm just trying to make it as easy and fair as possible. Thanks again for any input.
yeah,we should cover 1-100 1st...numbers in the thou might have to wait a year or 10 
I feel compelled to address the way the requests are going. With no disrespect to other ideas, the only person with the ultimate decision on how this is operating is Imeo. Imeo specifically said that numbers are reserved by request on a first come basis.
So there will be no lottery, etc. The rules are already set in place. One "gray" area that is disturbing is I am receiving requests by PM to reserve numbers in quantity. This will not be done. Sorry if this sounds harsh but recall when you request a number, you are commiting to buy an item you have not seen nor the price is set for.
When I get PM's for as many as 10? Sorry, that wont fly. Yes I know there are people that can affford that easily but when a "friend of a friend" asks for multiple units to be reserved there are issues. Say I accepted 10 numbers - Those 10 numbers are not only tied up, but that is 10 untis going to a reseller.
By making second and third hand requests, who then is accountable if these unknown parties simply decide not to buy? I know who would bear the burden of that and it would be Imeo, the reseller and me for being foolish enough to make it happen.
Getting PM's from people we have never seen here on ECF to reserve multiple items therefore wont happen. At the end of the day, this all is a wonderful gesture on Imeo's part. I will not dishonor his intent by allowing it to become a gray market for speculators nor for people to whom there is no accountability.
I hope all understand this but even if you don't, this is how it will be handled. Thanks for your cooperation.

ALSO PLEASE NOTE: In the early stages of this 2 month affair, the list will be updated at least once daily! This does not mean your numbers are in jeopardy! If you have posted your request for an unassigned number in this thread, the number is yours.
Understand though please that whith this first time ever for GG, serial number reservations that the GG user base is excited just as I am. But until the pace slows a bit, I am receiving requests in every manner imaginable. This is in spite of rules saying you must post your request in this thread.
I want to be sure that since the low numbers and "special numbers" will go first that the list reflects a true picture of what is "Official". As of this post, to be sure the requests since the last update are legit, I am tracking them as well as requesting ECF mods check for duplicate IP's. Yes, sadly we appear to have at least one person doing this to insure multiple numbers are reserved.
To that person I would remind you that multiple accounts are a violation of ECF policy. If this is indeed happening, you not only lose all numbers you reserved but would be banned by ECF. I would strongly advise that a retraction request be submitted before a worst case scenario for you occurs.
At any rate, the list will be updated for today by the time it was yesterday. Thanks for your patience and do not allow the bumps and hiccups in the process keep this from being a truly fun and memorable event!
