    9958 hopefully there wont be any 'contest' this time, but I can see it happening fairly easy.

    9,000 is a round number. All the ',000's are.
    darkone, you still haven't replied to my comment on the power ups.

    10 000 is "rounder", just like you would call 10 a round number but you wouldn't 9

    If 1,000 and 5,000 were considered round numbers, then 9,000 also is. They're all rounded off to the nearest thousand.

    9,950 WTF. Though I did get 1337 for the last one, and he sent me 100 minerals for it.

    Sending minerals is much more understandable than a power up. Power ups are supposed to reflect how respected you are as a member. Mineral rewards can be given for anything.

    They're all rounded numbers. It's not like we're counting from pi to zero, it's all in the thousands.

    counting from 10000-0 sounds better than 9000-0. End of discussion, my logic baffles you all speechless.

    It all comes from single (double) digits. It's easier to count in tens and fives than it is in nines, like
    5, 10, 15, 20
    9, 18, 27, 36

    so 10k (thousands) is perceived better than 9k
