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!

15. Come on! It's obvious that Earth is still drunk after crashing with that other planet! The moon always has to have some booze too! He isn't even a planet! Can you believe a moon getting booze? That's like giving vodka to a 5 year old!

16. Didn't you see in EBF4? If cats ran the earth we would have a massive boost both in magic and science!

17. Well, considering cats are carnivores, the Earth would be a much worse place. Most rodent and bird species will become extinct leading cats to become desperate and eat everything else, including dogs.

18. Sounds like humans in the future. We're killing other species and eventually we will kill all species and then we will die.

19. We breed animals, so we won't die due to lack of other species. If cats dominated, they would have capable minds too, so they would also breed their favourite prey.
Problems are in overpopulation and finite resources. I already experience a déjà vu and we didn't even start talking about this.

20. Maybe they should start putting deadly diseases into flu shots...I read a book that was like that once. They gave everyone a "vaccine" that actually killed them to help overpopulation. I forgot the title of that book.

21. They kill out of fun, too. But humans do that too. LBH, cats are only capable of being adorable and being killing machines.

24.
A little bit hypnotised after watching some funny cat videos I'll try to focus on this question. Watch out, it's gonna be a catastrophe.

Categorically cats are a bit catty. Not cattle-like in the least but definitely catlike. You can see them in various categories of catalogs. People luv their cats, so they buy them their fave cates, even order catering. They're graceful, so expect to spot them on catwalks wearing catsuits. But what do they have to do with catafalques and catacombs? Even catfishes and caterpillars can't figure that one out and you won't read that in any catechism.

26. So are bees. They can do what most humans aren't willing to: Sacrifice their lives to keep their hive safe. When they sting someone, they die to protect other bees from danger(you). They are very selfless creatures.

27. That is an old myth. Only a few species of bees out of... let me ask Google... *searching on Google* ... out of around 20000 species die after stinging. Nevertheless, they die in horrible numbers when they are defending their hive from f.e. wasps or a single hornet.

28. Hmm. Well the species that do are awesome. And maybe those are the ones that live where I live.

30. Look up for a video of bees swarming a hornet, if you dare. Or better don't look, I'll just say that it's a massacre, they boil hornets to death with their own heat. I wouldn't let that happen to poor bees, if I was there ><
