@Cracker Jack I disagree, in fact you are less secured than a person that is choosing a favorite hobby + date of birth for password. Systems make more sense than random events. Lets imagine that you just registered on autoparts.forums.com give us a password that would be generated by your system and we will encrypt your system with knowladge that there is a system. In other words one of your accounts on some random gaming forum gets hacked and the next thing you know someone is cashing out your banking account.

Again, the system contains arbitrary elements and connections. Knowing that my password on war-lords is XXYZ (which could be something like XanderXanderYapZoro) doesn't tell the person that the X corresponds to the letter w, X corresponds to number of letters in the first word, Y corresponds to L, and Z corresponds to the number of letters in the second word. This isn't how my system currently works, but it means that the system is useless to someone who wants to access my gmail account if they don't have the corresponding word for g or m, much less whether or not the system is currently set to a first letter-number of letters per word cipher or a number of letters-last letter cipher.
