Gamer indicating four digit phone number suffix

[Whimsical]

My cell phone company has opened up some new phone numbers, and I have an opportunity to select my own phone number. At least the last four digits.

So, I'm thinking that it would be cool to pick a number that alluded in a geekily obscure manner that I'm an RPG gamer or a D&D gamer.

For example:
1701 would indicate that I'm a Star Trek fan.
1138 would indicate that I'm a Star Wars/George Lucas fan.
0042 ... Hitchiker's Guide to the Galaxy fan.
0037 ... Kevin Smith fan.
1337 ... elite computer geek.
3141 ... math geek.

and so on.

So...any ideas for RPG gaming or D&D themed number? (no phone letters-to-numbers codes; I hate those)

And, any general advice for choosing a phone number?

What is the significance of 0037 for a Kevin Smith fan?

I don't get the 1138 either.

You could do 1220 (1 to 20). That'd be lame, though. I can't think of anything.

2020 - confirm your critical with a Nat 20
1800 - old-school AD&D player
468-1220 - the platonic solids

THX 1138

Ah.

My first house was:
1701 Sw. D Street.

A friend of mine (a big trek fan) wanted to buy it run a Star Trek fan club out of it or something.

If you're also a fan of Robert Anton Wilson, you could do

2323
2305

Something like that. Or maybe if you're a Star Trek fan you could use the number of that species that trashed the borg. 8472, I believe?

Ever watch Clerks? "37!"

Let's just say that exclamation was a memorable part of the movie. I'd explain exactly, but Eric's Grandma really wouldn't approve. A little google-fu should clear things right up.

Also the "1138" reference to George Lucas has shown up in Star Wars proper, remember when they were using Chewbacca as a decoy to get into the detention cell. "Prisoner transfer from cell block 1138". In an earlier draft of the script, the Stormtrooper who gets ambushed for his armor (TK421, why aren't you at your post?) was originally THX-1138 instead of TK-421.

You can always go and spell stuff using the letters above the numbers on the phone.

"Hat of d02" for example

An X-Files fan would want 82517

It's shown up repeatedly in George's movies. Two other examples:

IIRC, Bob Falfa's (Harrison Ford) license plate in "American Graffiti" was THX-1138.

In The Phantom Menace, when the droid army is deactivated, the droid standing next to Jar Jar has a stylized "1138" on its back.
