You could try using SQL something along the lines of:

insert into table ( user_id, sub_tile_id ) values ( 'current_user_id',
count( select sub_tile_id where user_id = 'current_user_id' ) + 1 );

I *think* something like that should increment sub_tile_id on a per
user_id basis, but it's not really a php solution, more of an sql one.
