The combinatorics of it is Sum i=1 to n.(i) = 78.
You can also use BUtbucket.org, bUTbucket.org, etc., BUTbucket.org, etc., etc.
Hacky, maybe, but it has worked that way for a long time. Why do you need more than 78 identities? Bitbucket allows you to be on multiple projects with the same identity.
