Written version of how to pick numbers to participate:

1st Number - Simply enough, just choose a random number from 1-28
2nd Number- Count how many squares (bookshelves) are in that row
3rd Number - Look on either the left or right of the rows to check how many shelves are in that section to determine the final number.

(The very end of the video has an up close of the graph so you can get the 2nd and 3rd number, or look below for written numbers)
~

How many bookshelves in each row:
(This determines the second number)

Rows 1 and 28 - 4 Bookshelves (So you'd chose 1-4 for the second number in this row)
Rows 2 and 3 - 3 Bookshelves (1-3 for second number)
Rows 4-15, 18-23 - 6 Bookshelves (1-6 for second number)
Rows 16, 17, 24-27- 5 Bookshelves (1-5 for second number)
~

How many shelves in each bookshelf:
(This determines the third and final number)

Row 1 - 6 shelves (Choose from 1-6 if this row is chosen)
Row 2 and 3 - 4 shelves (1-4 for third number)
Row 4-27 - 6 shelves (1-6 for third number)
Row 28 - 4 shelves (1-4 for third number)
~

Example: If someone chose the 19th row their first number would be 19, then anything from 1-6 for the bookshelf and 1-6 for the shelves. So a comment could look like this: 19, 4, 2 which would mean the 19th row, 4th bookshelf, 2nd shelf.
If this is still difficult to understand, please see my explanation video (Ep.0) where I go over the numbers and how to choose them.

Note: Bookshelves that have already been chosen (coloured in) will not be valid to choose from anymore. Comments with these numbers will have to either be changed or can't be used (I'll inform you if I notice this, so no worries if this happens).
