I generally do the same basic thing for permission levels, but a
reverse of what you're attempting to do.
The superuser (AKA root, administrator, God, whatever) has GID 0,
just like on a *NIX system. This is because it's the highest level
you can reach, and 0 is the lowest real number you can use. Thus, you
can add a virtually-infinite number of lesser users, as opposed to
being limited to 50, as in your case.
