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!

(2) - Spoiler Alert: there is no extra prize for counting 100. Also, seven or eight times before, I think.

3. Yeah yeah, plot twist: I know. You should participate in the whole count tho, not just come at the end and destroy the suspense

5 - oh, I do; in fact, I was the one who suggested activity-based rewards in the Count. It's just that I nowadays usually work during the active hours here, and when I come at late 80s/90s, jumping in is most probably just going to confuse people and slow down or reset the count. Therefore I only jump in when the victory is already guaranteed.

Also, yes, I already participated in this particular count.

6. You have a good memory Ramit xD It was when the story was just being created and the text about all woodcutters being drunk. So we are done... Is there a 2nd shift? xD (4 on 6 people in finished count are from Europe so maybe somebody will win when we are going to sleep xD).

(7) - on an unrelated note, after rereading this run I noticed some of you wanted to see the Queen artwork. You wouldn't be able to do that ATM anyway because of a bug (Kings/Queens only show Prince/Princess artwork), but since my grace is endless (sometimes) (actually very rarely), take a sneak peek.

1 - nope, you got it wrong. You are going to get a reward for participating in a hopefully successful count attempt, there is just no extra reward for posting the number 100 itself. Also, your quest and merit may take a few days to arrive (since the count has to be checked manually before handing them out and the current commissioner is busy at the moment).
