I did sort of the same thing at one time, I had a written list of
passwords but each were missing a couple of characters that were the
same in all.
One of my stories (sorry if I told this before) is when I gave my
mainframe password to an operator one evening to avoid a drive to work.
I told him to type NONE in the password field and he said he was
surprised that I could have an id with no password needed.

I remember one test team with a shared userid. They had a scheme where
you incremented the month so JAN became KBO, etc. and had 4 rules. When I
asked how they remembered the password they said look on the top of the
white board, there is a 10 character string. The password is the middle 8 -
just ignore the first and last character. If it had been 8 characters
people would have assumed it was a password - but 10 characters - obviously
not a password.
