What are those strange numbers I see listed occasionally instead of dates?

AtariProtos.com - All Your Protos Are Belong To Us!
Those numbers (such as 213-03) are actually a date code Atari sometimes used on their prototypes. The first number is the day of the year, so since there are 365 days in a year, 213 would be August 2nd. The second number is a bit more cryptic, but is believed to be the "Build Number" of the day. In this case the 03 would mean it's the 3rd version of the game they made on that day.

What do all those strange ranks mean?

Steel Phoenix :: FAQ
In general, the ranks on this forum were taken from the Japanese terms for various school grades or from pieces used in Shogi (Japanese Chess). Taken from the Japanese term for "preschooler", this is the lowest rank available on the forum. All new users start with this rank. Taken from a Shogi piece refered to as the "silver general", this rank might more properly be named 'ginshou'. However, I opted to use the promoted piece name 'narigin' to avoid confusion with the higher 'kinshou' rank.
