Buffy By Numbersok here is a new game
i'll start by posting a number that appears somewhere or somehow in btvs.
first person to identify where that number appears posts another number.
It could be a number mentioned in dialogue, or seen onscreen, or a number of times something happens, or a number of people, or things: anything that is true in the buffyverse.
Just to keep the flow, there's no need to wait for the original poster to confirm whether the answer is correct, you just have the next go.
Lets see how it goes....

cardboardy
|
ok first number is:
214
|
SeeingBlue
|
Buffy and Willow's dorm room
730
|
cardboardy
|
in dream sequence at the start of this years girl, faith starts the countdown...
ok next
114
|
cardboardy
|
it was the number 114 that gave me the idea for this game, obscure as it is (sorry!!)
clue -- like 214 and 314, it's a 'room' number we learn in season 4.. we only see it once
|
Beckyxx
|
Is it Willows dorm room number? (before she moves in with Buffy)
|
cardboardy
|
it's somewhere in the initiative...
|
SeeingBlue
|
....the room two doors down from 314?
|
cardboardy
|
exactly!
(well actually its the number on the door of the cell Riley is imprisoned in after his arrest in the initiative)
ok Seeing Blue, your turn
|
SeeingBlue
|
144

Remember, if you are good with your answer you don't need to wait for confirmation before you post the next number.

Sorry, I had difficulties thinking of a number.

Its the population of Sunnydale on the "Welcome to Sunnydale" signpost!
(the only reason I know this is because that exact screenshot is my computer wallpaper!!)
---------------------------
(EDIT) totally missed QueenCs post in all the excitement. I was beaten to the punch! Damn!

That's correct. You see this number in both School's out and Lover's walk.

The number of episodes in S1 if you count WTTHM-the Harvest as one, two part episode.
haha, almost as funny as Ild's
|
ildjarn
|
Well, I found an 11 but I cheated (searched the triviaguide), is that allowed?
|
beagle
|
I say yes Ild. Though I have no authority, but then again, who does?
|
ildjarn
|
Bargaining Part I: Willow wears a shirt with '11' on it.
|
QueenC(becauseitsmyname)

Number of people who have been in the opening creds in the 7 seasons, but the Will shirt thing is true, so whatever, you go next ildjarn

I can't think of anything so far. Is it a number that actually appears in the show, or is it some kind of 'meta-number', e.g. the number of episodes that Joyce appears in?

I decided to check IMDB after my comment, and I found out I was on the right track (well, at least on a track that leads to 31, I don't know if it's QueenC's intention): Marc Blucas appeared in 31 episodes.
|
QueenC(becauseitsmyname)
|
actually it was on the things in the kitchen of Anya's apartment in selfless, but why don't u go next

Joyce's birthyear.
I first thought of something else, but I found out that that was 1955. So I'm gonna use that for the next number.
|
QueenC(becauseitsmyname)
|
For people who have seen season 2 many a time that is way to easy, pick something else, YEP YOUR TURN
|
ildjarn
|
523
(and queenC got 1955 right too. With that hint it's probably not too hard do find out what I was thinking about).
|
ildjarn
|
No one?
|
cardboardy
|
isn't Giles apartment building number 523?
otherwise, several times a year, sunrise in sunnydale is at 5.23 am, and as such is is vampire bedtime.

Correct. The complete address is 523 Oakpark Street, Apartment B, Sunnydale, CA 90211 (seen in The freshman).
No idea about 25 yet.

(although the 1649 I was thinking of was a year, and seeing as there is no evidence disprove your assertion, it must be true)
