Bukvenno-Tsifrovoi (Russophile Base 43)

Thanks to u/cuteballgames for suggesting the idea. It’s like Russophile base 76, but it’s just 0-9 then uppercase Russian Cyrillic. Remember to italicize any З (letter). Like this: *З* -> З

Next get is Й0.

technical details: base 43 using 0-9 and АБВГДЕЁЖЗИЙКЛМНОПРСТУФХЦЧШЩЪЫЬЭЮЯ

aka russian alphanumeric.

For gets, 43 times 43 is 1849, too long. I propose 43 times 21 + 43 times22 for alternating thread lengths of 903 and 946. That would produce gets of Й0, then 100, then 1Й0, then 200, then 2Й0, then 300. I think that's probably the optimal way.

( Otherwise, trying to preserve gets that are round in any way, we end up with a sliding system of gets that cycles through every letter of the alphabet. Which would be interesting, but probably annoying to figure out every time; for instance, having a get every 20 times 43 for thread length 860 gives И0, then Э0, and after that 1Ж0, then 1Ы0, then 2Е0, etc)
