24 or 36 exposers

Hi folks...
I went to Santa Monica beach today to to play chess. Today my weapon of choice was my K1OOO with a fresh roll of BW400CN 36 exposer. Anyway I got to playing this older man who handed me my lunch.. Then I played this 15 year old kid who gave me the smack down as well...Turns out the older Gent is a grand master and the kid is a master...I did win my third game against another master so I quit on a good note...Anyway, those folks where genuinely excited that I was shooting film and one of the guys started to take some pictures with my camera of me playing these pros. Anyway, normally it takes me a few weeks to shoot 36 exposers, but I was so anxious to get this developed, It seemed like forever to shoot this many images...The last 10 or so, I really just snapped away to finish the roll....I remember the days when shooting 2 gigs worth of digital was nothing...Gosh it would taKe me for ever to shoot 2 gigs now...

Anyway, what do you folks prefer...24 or 36 and why?
Is there still 12 exposer rolls available?

Anyway, tomorrow I will post some of those images from the Santa Monica. I dropped of the roll for processing today...In the meantime, I will leave you with this image I shot with my cell phone...
The older man to the lower right is the chess master who also founded Chess park in Santa Monica..
