Did you check out the statistics on the site? They listed 1233456, 12345, 1234,123 and 1 on the toplist of password.

If we are going to be clever we should follow the statistics and go for 12 that where not on the toplist!!

Or even better, 21. Reverse it to add another layer of obfuscation.

You are right.

12 - Rank 318

21 - Rank 523

I'm surprised that '12' is so low on the list.
