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!

2. Hm, that's weird. It didn't smell stew. *sniff* I still smell it! I have a feeling this time it'll stay for good. [INSERT SUBTLE FORESHADOWING]

4. *sniff* Yup, that's a fishy smell indeed. A fish stew, mayhap?

6. Fish? No, no. It smells more like poweeeeeer! Old spice body wash is too powerful to keep being on the TV. It's 16 hours of smelling like pure POWEEEEEEEEE-

7. Ehh, so we know the source now. It's an old fish with old spices. But why is someone using it as body wash?

9. I'm ignoring a post of a probable troll. Evidence is on a previous page: post without number + information from Sciller why was that against the rules. @porwmenos read the rules.

About finals - I'm rooting on Croatia since Portugal crashed out. Let's say 2:1 for Croatia and a historical Cup.

10. Obviously, there's only one country you should root for, and that country was the only one no one expected to get to the finals.

Also, fun fact, politicians here are literally talking about making this Monday, this year, a de facto state holiday.

Now generally,

4.0 The count shall be restarted from 1 if: (...)
4.0.5 a spam post, defined Section 2.4, is made.

And, section 2.4 says

2.4 No counter may post only the number or gibberish with the number.

However, based on the fact that @porwmenos has either deliberately refused to read the rules or follow the rules, I believe that he is a troll. Thus, he is spoiling the count, meaning that his post above needs to be ignored.

@porwmenos By posting just a number, you are spamming the count and causing a restart, which defeats the purpose of this forum game (which is team effort). Also, you will not get the merit this way.

Furthermore, if you were to continue this, it would fall under spamming behaviour not just in this game, but also generally speaking, which is against the forum rules and will have consequences. So please, make an effort and write at least one sentence in each post

@PLGuy @sciller45
1. Restarting the count this time, but if this goes on, please ignore it as you did before.

1. Roger that.

Also, we suck. It's 4-1

Christ, I feel like the Croats are stormtroopers - Always missing. We dominate everything except the score. Such a shame. Disappointment.

1. Also, @memo0o96 The game didn't stop, as you can see. Apparently, someone left AG - A veteran who was extremely active on CT100 and some other, older games and left the forums with a whole bunch of blank pages.

3. After the match commentators said it's one of the best finals ever. I totally agree, the best I've watched so far. And for me the score was 3-2 because that fatal free kick ending with the own goal was referee's mistake.
