Having a closer look at the list shows that password rules like "alpha + numericals" don't add much of security in real world scenarios: In approx 95% people seem to add one or two digits at the end of a string.

I don't like password requirements - It restricts the number of possibilities and for crackers who know the restrictions it makes life a lot easier for them.

Clearly the way to go is the append the number '3' to your password ;)
