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!

3. Don't be so critical. Accidents happen all the time.

4. Yes, but that's what the 30 seconds to edit the number is for, like you just did :P

1. I'm gonna reset the count until we get at least 3 or 4 active people posting, otherwise this is just boring :P

4. Also, the count would have had to have been reset before my second post anyway, as you back-to-back posted before I posted.

5. Look man, just check immediately after you post. 30 seconds is not a lot of time, but if you're careful, you can prevent being ninja'd without much difficulty.

6. I have been doing this for a while, I just had a brake, same with both the other active people here. Please stop trying to teach us, thank you. Also, mistakes happen, due to slow internet and the like, so please stop pointing fingers. thanks.

7. Please don't forget that we all live in different countries with varying internet speeds. Don't just automatically assume that we all have super fast internet.

8. This is a forum, you don't need a fast internet connection to load text posts... Also, saphire, I deliberately reset the count at a whopping 2 by double-posting, doesn't change the fact that you broke it at 65. Hope we do better this time.

9. The difference is not the number, but the fact that mine was a mistake, and yours broke the rules.

10. Point is both ended up resetting the count, and mine was of little consequence. Had I deliberately reset the count at a high number, you would have a solid case.

Look, I'm not mad at you, I just really want to get this to 100.

11. There are other elements which require loading: the text box, the footer, the BBCode shortcuts above the text box, submit button, the armatars, etc. Also deliberate resetting is NOT allowed. Last time someone tried that, they were banned forever along with their alts.
