    Seeing as just five alphanumeric symbols gets you over 60 million variations, exactly how the hell did they fuck up that hard

      60M total but divided among 40 counties makes 1.5M variations per county and the capital city (which is its own county, like Berlin) went over that.

      I looked it up and Bucharest actually has only a 1.7M population so… I think it’s understandable that nobody expected an almost 1:1 person-to-car ratio. Exactly why and how they reached that crazy ratio I have no idea. 😆

      Told you it’s a crazy rabbit hole.

        Ah Ok, so the mistake was allotting per county.
