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!

19. Buddhists meditiate to achieve Nirvana. Personally after some drinks I'm used to have this impression, that this might be Nirvana.

20. I suggest you to not drink that much, even if the sensation of Nirvana is incredible.

23. I ask of thee one thing: what is considered afternoon/evening? I consider them by simply saying: 6 hour cycle.

24. Afternoon would be from noon to right before it gets dark when it gets dark, it's evening 'till about 9 o'clock and then it's night. Until Twilight then it's morning until noon when it's afternoon.

26. Yeah that's kinda obvious between afternoon and evening. Far worse is between late afternoon and early evening :-P I don't use these to not start stammering out of hesitation.

1. Just letting you know that I'm aware of the finished count and will be checking it tomorrow, likely. Also using that as an excuse to interrupt your current count, because I'm evil. Cheers!

2. Good job KatPryde xD I hope you enjoyed this Mod-Count restart.
Fingers crossed and let's see, if we didn't make any blunders.

The count is rejected due to hateful posting in the very first post. To avoid such escalations in the future, I'm closing the CT100 thread with immediate effect.

... OK, I'll stop with the bad jokes. The count is fine. You're good. Merits have been handed out; congratulations to everyone!

1. Is it wrong for me to have enjoyed the first paragraph because I wasn't in that count?

3. VICTORY! We did it! xD @lithium923 @luis3141 Now I can congratulate you for a great counting barely 1-2 days after you two joined CT100. Really great job.

@HahiHa Shouldn't @Olaffours @KatPryde and me get merits as well? I mean it was the custom so far, that every year the very first won count is awarded.
It's not that we three insist on that... not at all xD
