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.

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!
SCOREBOARD
bold = counted 100, italics = previous winning participant, [#] = # of total wins, (#) = # of times counted 100 FULL SCOREBOARD
3. Not to wish to imply that I or anyone else had done this, or endorse doing it, but even if you delete it, no one will ever know so long as you stay quiet.
Also, [Adjective][Noun], I have never said I will change my armatar. I said I would keep it if I got tails. I got heads. Corgito ergo sum quoque recta it est, I never said I would change anything. My logic is flawless. Ask any one of the WEPR logicians, and you shall be given the same answer.
Also, it is Sciller. Only Chryosten gets to call me Schiller.
Since you have chosen Santa Claws as your armatar, I assume we share the same good taste. May I recommend:
-PHLHimself's many wonderous armatars
-Snoboxstudio's two Christmas armatars
-Winter 2012 #33
Restarting the count for a basic mistake:
1. Was it a typo? Obviously someone new to the count might not know all the rules, but counting to 10 is pretty basic in the scheme of things.
2. Ah! PHLHimself's submission. I always knew you had good taste, soggy!
It is extraordinarily difficult and gets ever more so the smaller and unstable-er the forumnaut population grows, or, er, shrinks to be. Our last win was over a year ago and took 50 days. Before, they'd be a few months ago and take a few days. Sometimes less than an hour! That was a record I was a part of. BE IMPRESSED!
Well, DM, either they ignored it, or they cannot see it. I'd probably have -20 wins if they could see. But shhh. Actually, the rules say nothing about deleting posts. I checked. It only says moderators may not delete or edit posts except to enforce rules. Spirit of the game - shmirit shmof shme shmame.
Shmanywa- Shoh. Shoh, shno, shI'm shshtuck shalking shike shhis! Shomeone shlease shelp shme šith shthis!
