The original "This Thread is Currently About" is back! Yes, it's Count to 100!

HOW TO PLAY

1. Count by ones from 1 to 100 in 100 consecutive posts according to the Core Rules.
2. Restart the count from 1 after:
a. a Moderator (or an Administrator) makes a stopping post (post without counting) if users and Knights are counting..
b. a user or Knight or Warden makes a stopping post (post without counting) if Moderators and Administrators are counting.
c. breaking a core rule, spamming, or cheating.
d. reaching 100.
3. Announce why you restart the count so other counters don't get confused.
NOTE: For the time being, Moderators are allowed to help Users count, so as long as the other rules are observed you do not need to restart the count if you see a mod count. However, if a Moderator makes a stopping post, i.e. a post without counting (not the same as a non-count post since they're technically different teams), it is considered an interruption and the count will restart.

CORE RULES

No mistakes. A count must start from 1 and increase by ones up to 100, save for exceptions noted.
No double-counting. No counter may count two consecutive numbers.
No back-to-back counting. No two counters may alternate for more than three consecutive numbers.
Okay: P1 P2 P1 P3
Not Okay: P1 P2 P1 P2
Okay: P1 P2 reset P1 P2
No editing. No counter may edit their post. If an edit tag shows on a count, the attempt is forfeit.

ADDiTiONAL RULES

No "spamming". Please don't post only the number and please don't post gibberish, either.
Multiple one- or two-word counts may also disqualify a count.
No "cheating". This shouldn't need to be said. Counting to 100 doesn't count if you cheat.
This is an exercise in teamwork, not rule bending.
No "spoiling". Don't mess with the count. Posts should start with the correct number.
Posts with no numbers should be ignored. See also: No non-counts.
Posts with intentional mistakes should be ignored.
No "spilping". If this is your first post in this thread, please post "I'm new and here to count to 100!"
No non-counts. No counter may post without a counting number or make a post without bolding that number if that counting number is not at the start of the post.

COMPLETE SET OF RULES
Please refer to the complete set of rules for additional information and examples of what is valid or invalid.
DiSCUSSiON THREAD
Please also check out the discussion thread for new gameplay or rule proposals or general discussion on the gameplay and rules of "Count to 100".

END GAME

Once you reach 100, you start this Sisyphean task all over again back at 1. Users should notify the Commissioner of the Count (HahiHa) that the count reached 100 and the Commissioner will review it to make sure there were no mistakes or cheating. If there were no mistakes or cheating, then the users who took part in the successful count to 100 will get a shiny new Quest!

18. I had that problem once. Disappeared after I turned off my computer and turned it back on the next day.

1. Double numbers mean a restart. And no, I do not plan on deleting my post. Mistakes are mistakes.

3. @perin106 I can only guess that PHL in his nick stands for Philadelphia. Am I right @PHLHimself?
I am still time traveling after reset.. It probably has something to do with Time Switching that was on different days in PL and USA.

(4) PL, if you're seeing this, how is the Future?

Have we achieved World Peace yet? less frequent crisis? YAYy and affordable flying cars?
has the World population reached 10 billion already?

does the U.S.A. still have the biggest GDP in the World?
is Capitalism still there?

(what are the numbers that won the "Mega da Virada 2017?&quot

Actually, I'm the time traveller, and went 41 minutes into the past to post it.

8. @armorplayergc My time difference is just 1 hour unfortunately :-( It's more that I'm stuck between two isochronal realities that have 1 hour difference in time than that I'm actually able to choose the time and place like Rick.

But without time travels I can try to answer on some of these questions as I think it's going to happen:
There will never be World Peace. Crises happen more or less regularly and it probably will continue in this manner. One day we certainly will have affordable flying cars. World population... I don't want to sound grimly but I have no idea if it will reach 10 billion. And rest I can't predict mostly because there wasn't said what the time in the future that you mean. And Mega da Virada that's a lottery right?

@PHLHimself The mystery is solved indeed.

09. Awwwww, what a shame. On the other hand, that's great for weapons manufacturers and arms companies.

11. Man that's very depressing, the thoughts, conclusions that I have after @armorplayergc questions. It's in human nature to fight with other people, that are different or that are too similar (so they want the same things). Also it's there to not share evenly with other humans - some people waste enormous amounts of money and some starve to death. And thanks to that the Earth is not overpopulated....... Daymit maybe it will change when we start settling other planets.

12. Even the best systems in the world are not perfect. There will always be one or two starving children and at least one or two extremists. And There's nothing we can do to change that. It's quite sad actually.

13. Yeah it is. All we can do is trying to make better the world around us. And trying to be optimistic about these topics. All in all situation should be getting better all over the world every year - the number of people is growing constantly for some reason.
