In a numerical list, what is at the top/front? A question for the ages...

    So... since the addition of the word "1th" to the lingo of this and another message board... I was writing a post today and I realized that there is no proper rules for which is the omega when it comes to the battle of 1st and 1th.

    Does a list go

    1st
    1th
    2nd
    3rd

    or

    1th
    1st
    2nd
    3rd

    What does the Huddle think?

    Sorry, I forgot this was serious business.

    This came to mind when I was making a list and was about to use the old formula when there is a indistinguishable tie (see following example). And I was wondering about incorporating the mockery of the infamous 1th post to create a new system... but apparently someone went around peeing in everyone's cheerios. Bah humbug to you too!

    1b)
    2)
