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.

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!

(20) - they use base 16 (hexadecimal) instead of base 10 (decimal). Basically, with decimal, you have ten characters you can place at one position: 0, 1, 2... 9. With hexadecimal, you have sixteen: 0, 1, 2... 9, A, B, C, D, E, F.

0 = 0 . . . . . . 1 = 1 . . . . . . 2 = 2 . . . . . . 3 = 3
4 = 4 . . . . . . 5 = 5 . . . . . . 6 = 6 . . . . . . 7 = 7
8 = 8 . . . . . . 9 = 9 . . . . . . A = 10 . . . B = 11
C = 12 . . . D = 13 . . . E = 14 . . . F = 15

----------

When converting hexadecimal to decimal, you multiply the character on the last place of a number/hexadecimal integer by 16^0 = 1; second to last position by 16^1 = 16; third by 16^2 = 256 and so on.

So, for example:
E(16) = 14(10). ---> 14*1
10(16) = 16(10). ---> 1*16 + 0*1
FF(16) = 255(10). ---> 15*16 + 15*1
D6A(16) = 3434(10). ---> 13*256 + 6*16 + 10*1

----------

There are two main methods for converting decimal to hexadecimal. For example, 11538(10) = 2D12(16).

---

The first method involves dividing the number with modulo division by powers of 16, starting from the highest possible.

11538 div 4096 = 2 mod 3346. 3346 div 256 = 13 (-> D) mod 18. 18 div 16 = 1 mod 2. 2 div 1 = 2 mod 0. Final number consists of results (not modulos) in order, so it's 2D12.

---

The second method involves dividing the number by 16.

11538 div 16 = 721 mod 2. 721 div 16 = 45 mod 1. 45 div 16 = 2 mod 13 (-> D). 2 div 16 = 0 mod 2. Final number consists of modulos (not results) in reverse order, so 2D12.

E[size=50](16)[/size] = 14[size=50](10)[/size]. ---> 14*1
10[size=50](16)[/size] = 16[size=50](10)[/size]. ---> 1*16 + 0*1
FF[size=50](16)[/size] = 255[size=50](10)[/size]. ---> 15*16 + 15*1
D6A[size=50](16)[/size] = 3434[size=50](10)[/size]. ---> 13*256 + 6*16 + 10*1
