They do in England AND they are usually 10 digits long, but I don't think Bob has a phone number in England that gives out message space.... *teehee*

oh! I got it! You need to click on USER CP at least that many times! *checks* yeah, thats about how many times I've done it
well, thats a 10 digit number. however, in the US, I don't think phone numbers can begin with a 0
Maybe it's scrambled? :lol:
It's funny that when I search the Lost Show lottery numbers I get a result with an ISBN 0691080976 which is for the book How to Solve It: A New Aspect of Mathematical Method.
Maybe we need this or another problem solving book to find the answer to Bob's riddle?

Great book, by the way--a definite classic!
Well now, the hint depth is still fairly shallow and I keep looking at those numbers and seeing December 31st 1963, which doesn't help .
That at first made me think that is way a birthday and membership number type thang but ... at least according to his profile, that's not Mrhnau's birthday so that put the kybosh on that theory.

.Without actually telling you what it is, the hints can't really go any deeper.
Maybe it's time for a new hobby? Join a club perhaps? :lol:

Don't feel too bad you guys. I had to ask, its been so long since it happened for me, I forgot!
{Yoda voice}Taunts us, he does, hmmm!{/Yoda}
.Days of membership at the end of December, perhaps?
The best part is, when you do figure it out, you get to realise how blatantly obvious the clues are when you know what the answer is
That's always the way of these things .
It's what makes riddles and puzzles so appealing (the "If it's so darned obvious why can't I see it?!" factor).

Absolutely, any puzzle is easy when you knwo the answer. Even though it doesn't really affect me it's chewing at me too.

Hmmm *Stares at Bob*
Ok if we take that number "0688123163" and search Amazon with it using it as an ISBN we get the book "Raving Fans: A Revolutionary approach to Customer Service". http://www.amazon.com/Raving-Fans-R...290894-5004674?ie=UTF8&qid=1178270779&sr=11-1
So by Crushing's comment we now know that the number is an ISBN.
God how thick am I? i should have picked that up earlier.
Now how does that in relation to USER CP give extra message space???
