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!

12. I'm actually not sure if those-whose-names-shan't-be-spoken can manage more than 2. They can probably get coordinated, but I feel like it would be quite difficult. They seem to be a bit... inactive... right now. I know they're online every day, but they don't seem to do much on the surface.

Also, if you're reading this, pls don't kill me I did nothing wrong here's my lunch money just leave me alone!

15. What happened yesterday? I've received another letter. *PRGuy was standing in the middle of the CT100 Headquarters, waving a white envelope. There was a huge red "COMPLAINT" stamp on it. He started inspecting it. The letter was addressed from...* Jyoti Amge. Hmm... dunno her, gunna give a read laters. *PR throwed the sealed letter into the air. It landed on the summit of a gargantuan pile ascending from the shelf labelled as "The Forsaken Mail"* Perfect. And now to the gami... *ekhm* gaining contractors.

17. Pfft "forsaken mail". Absolutele garbage name. Trust me, I read through all of it, and none of it is as near as interesting as the name suggests. At least the heart-shaped letters from some Folorunsho lady were interesting.

Wait, nevermind, I mean. Oh, boy, who know the whimsical mysteries hidden in the spooOOoky forsaken mail!

21. You, uh, sure noticing is a good thing? I mean, I'm pretty sure 7 of those letter had dimethylmercury on them. So... At least I didn't inhale it. Phew! Now to wait as the poison slowly eats away at my myelin sheet, short-circuiting my brain and causing a slow and painful death. God should finish rehab in the time, right? RIGHT?

@Yellowcat . Not to worry! Here! Have my man-advice book. I... I have a lot of books...
*Yellowcat opens the book. A single page appears, saying:"*******ed up, eh? Cry your *******ing brains out if you have to. Get over it and go for the next best thing. The only person you can blame for your problems is you, you dumb *******in' imbecile."*
Hey, y'know. Sometimes... ya need the ugly truth. *melancholically blows party horn*

Welp, that book was of no help at all.

23. Living in stable, temperate Europe, the craziest weather I've ever experienced was a storm with sleet and heavy rain on one side and sun and light rain on the other side of the house. Then I look at Florida and hurricanes. I like to imagine the hurricane's winds picking up alligators and Bermuda triangle planes and just flinging them all across the east coast. Like Sharknado but with gators. Gatornado.

24. I'm living in the middle of Texas, while I'm definitely not getting anything near what Florida is getting I can safely say that the last month and a half is the most rain I've ever seen in such a short period of time. There are more days where it does rain than when it doesn't, and that really really unusual for this part of Texas.

25. Today was a toooon of rain for me, like the patio was flooding amounts of rain.

In relation to my last post, I made one really poor decision last year that kinda screwed my entire life up. It keeps coming back to haunt me.

27. In PL we have occasionally cyclones in the south but fortunately never hurricanes. Sadly, all I can do to help all those in danger is my assertion, that if any of you land in my garden, you can enjoy my hospitality. Oopsie, I don't have a garden ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

28. Ah, yes. The doors and windows are boarded, the house waterproof. Batteries charged, board games on a pile. Solitaire set and ready. Electricity off and fuel tanks filled up. Enough water and canned bread to last. Perfect. Now to release the zombi- I mean, huddle up and wait through the gatornado.

30. Ah, don't mind that bread. Dude, when stocking trivia, you forgot about one essential resource! I can provide you with some tins, but I warn ye, won't be cheap... This stuff is in demand. The irreplaceable Dehydrated Water.
BTW, is a bar stool still as formidable a weapon against gators caught by winds?

32. Well, depends on if they're CGI or real :P Doubt it'd do much damage to a gator with a mouth wide open flying at hurricane-level winds towards you.

Pfft. Any old fool knows that methane is irreplaceable. Of course, along with pressurised tanks of oxygen. But come on, everyone knows that you need to have methane. It's one of the rules that don't need saying. Just like lighting a match in case your bunker suddenly reeks of sulphur. The match masks the smell of rotten eggs!

Ha! Better slow internet than no internet. Darn you vague "ethernet cable unplugged" message! Hm. Wait a minute...
