One in a Million: Competitive

The sequel to the app sensation (not really) One in a Million. The rules are simple: Submit a number from 1 to 1000000. If you choose one that hasn't yet been submitted, that number is now your very own. Be sure to feed it regularly, it might get a little restless if you don't. Anywho, there's a catch. If you submit a number that already belongs to someone else, that player earns a point. They're one point higher on the leaderboard and it's all your fault. What do you have to say for yourself?
