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.

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!

5. Isn't it against site rules to make a post in any other language besides English? (I remember getting a comment deleted because part of it was in Spanish. Also, I remember some guy on here a couple years or so ago who kept replying on here in Filipino despite being told multiple times to stop, even after being told this in Filipino by @SirLegendary.)
6. Granted Google Translate isn't perfect, but it still conveyed the gist of what I was trying to say (a sin is a moral mistake). In response to RebelGamer_98's question, I'm not seeing such a rule either in the basic rules on this page or on the more advanced count to 100 rules thread; if there were such a rule, this count would already be invalid since disastermaster30's post that started it was in Greek.)
7. Writing in non-English languages could be considered spam but this was more of a quote than spam so I doubt it infringed any rules
8. @saint_of_gaming , I was referring to these rules which apply to the ENTIRE site, not just this specific forum. @diastermaster30 , the phrase (the phrase translates to "I'm bored" in English) I said was a quote from the game I was playing but it was still deleted. Although, now I'm wondering if saying "c'est la vie" is okay, given how common the phrase is in English-speaking countries despite it being in French.
9. Ah you meant these. I don't really care atm tbh so if they want to remove the comment, let them be.
10. @RebelGamer 98 valid point , but my point about the count being invalid from the beginning because of disastermaster30's initial post would still hold. We should check with Hahiha and possibly restart.
(not posting to reset the count... please continue with the next number)
I don't want to step on Hahiha's toes here, but I'd continue with the count and not worry about that first post. I find 2 reasons compelling here:
1. The Ct100 posts have always been on the creative side with multiple conversations going on at once and all kinds of silliness thrown in. I don't see a one-off post in a non-English language as justification to restart the count.
2. This is hard enough as it is with the forums as dead as they are. You guys will probably blow it later on down the road anyway
13. Here to continue the count amidst the chaos of quotations in non-English.
15. There were only two quotations in non-English the first of which was not posted by me.
