Nettamer doesn't care if some numbers are missing from sequence.
What is important to Nettamer is that the messages be numbered
hexidecimally. "10" is a valid hexidecimal number. It is equal
to 16 in the decimal system. If you tried numbering a message as
"15" I don't think it would fly. 15 is a valid decimal number but
it isn't a valid hexidecimal number. If you numbered a message as
"0F", then that would be OK with Nettamer because 0F is a valid
hexidecimal number. It is equal to 15 decimal. I hope that
explains it.
All the best,
Sam Heywood
