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!

44. Did you know that 4 in Japaneese (or Chineese I forgot) means Death?

45. No, it doesn't. In Chinese languages translations of four and death are just pronounced similarly.
@sciller45 Still no answer? Poland is out of this riddle and looking at the only name I mentioned should tell you almost everything.
@Yellowcat That haiku-thingy... is that a riddle or a joke? How come one can learn to haiku on Russia Today? (Yeah, trustworthy).

48. Wow, searching for data for this s*** is incredibly difficult. I mean, it's the world cup for Christ sake! But, I guess the clue Benzema would be useful, if searching for data about him wasn't a pain in the... glutes.

So, perhaps France? You said two decades and they haven't won World cup since 1998. It couldn't be Wales because Wales sucks. A lot.

49. Haha, I wonder how does it sound for some1 who can read Cyrillic. With the riddle - don't overthink it. Benzema is a famous front from BBC trio. France didn't bring Benzema on this world cup. Again: I root since 2000s for a club I kinda root for certain players from main squads now. Before I forgot about Toni Kroos, but NVM, Germany crashed out. Isco etc. from Spain - in group B Portugal was with a higher priority.

50. @hirasthegamer, Its Chinese. The symbol "4" resembles a word associated with death and not 'four' in itself.

51. Well, @PLGuy, you're in luck, 'cause I can read cyrillic! It says, transcribed to the Croatian alphabet, and taking in consideration the latin letters suck as s, i and g (I won't change) ;

Read š as in SHoulder

PLEASE! No one should QUACK "BBC trio" if you don't have safe search on. Learn from my mistake. In some places of the internet BBC doesn't stand for Bale, Benzema and Christiano Ronaldo.

OOHH. I get it. Huh, I never heard of the BBC trio.

Barcelona is better, though.

55. Anyone realize how oddly high we're getting with this count, despite the amount of blank pages and ninja potential?

56. It's like super easy when you can count to 15 and choose last post link on Forum Games page.

Barcelona is better, though.

Sciller, you've already shown you don't have the slightest idea about football/soccer by saying that France is a club... So I can tell you some more essential information why your claim is wrong. Real Madrid won Champions League three times in a row. No other team in the history did it twice. Also they won it 4 times during 5 years. Saying that anything is better than RM is not true - supported by facts. If you mean Barca does better in La Liga - their national league is only important for 4 places - to qualify for Champions League. Anything else is but a farce. I said it's clichéd to root on RM, because they are so overpowered. Already in 2000 they were noted by specialists as the best club in the XX century. Now they are just getting better and better and they're not so Galacticos anymore. I mean compare how much is worth MVP from RM and say from Barcelona and PSG. Ronaldo 100M € vs. Neymar/Messi 180M €. Goalkeeper - Navas is weak and confidence on the field starts in the goal. So now their greatness comes purely from their tactic on matches and strategy for whole year. They are the best.

As for BBC trio - I only see RM front in Google, but as you may know Google shows results based on your previous searches - on your "taste" .

Also it's British Broadcasting Company and not Corporation.

57. No, I couldn't care less about football, and by club, I thought you meant some national team. You were talking about the world cup, now, right?

And you didn't have to educate me on the whole matter.

Also, I said don't QUACK "BBC trio". As in DuckDuckGo, with safe search off.

PS: now it's the British Broadcasting Corporation. It used to be Company, till 1926, but it then dissolved and its assets were transferred to, what is now, the BBC.

59. I confirm transfermarkt names national teams as clubs, but it's obscure to do so. Clubs can have private ownership, have freedom of choice of names and don't have restrictions for nationality. Everyone differentiates national teams/club teams/other group teams (school etc.)/all-star teams. I thought I have to educate you if you throw a claim that Barca is better in times like that - recent UEFA fails. Quack wasn't the most fortunate use of a word - it has a pejorative meaning and I was sure you meant it. And yes, I slipped up by mixing acronyms. ABC does stand for American Broadcasting Company.
