The section ID calculator that you guys (and other people I suspect) are using has some bugs in it. Each character for a user's name is in the range of 32 to 126 and its corresponding number is found by taking the result of the modulus of that number and 10. (Ex: 32 % 10 = 2)
My point: The values of certain characters are different than what they're actually supposed to be. These are the three which are incorrect:
} -> 125 % 10 = 5 PINKAL
| -> 124 % 10 = 4 PURPLENIUM
' -> 39 % 10 = 9 WHITILL
Ok, I'm positive that this is the correct way to get the numbers for the characters. I put these into PSO just now and got these Section IDs back. Try it with your Section ID calc, you get different results.
Just thought you might like to know. I'll be posting code for a Section ID calc in C and JavaScript soon.
