My mistake sorry, I did [( clone_num % 1024 : ({ clones }) )] 
from memory I seemed to recall it doing mod, and I guess it shoulda been:
[( clone_num / 1024 : ({ clones }) )] 

And I believe cuz its efficient it could also be accomplished with:
clone_num << 10 ... shift the number by 10 binary positions to the left
equivalent to clone_num / 1024 , or clone_num / 2^10
