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!

3. With 98 posts to go till count is at 100 made me wonder. Would it be allowed to sing in with typing "99 bottles of beer" with twisting some words to counting to 100. Would it be spam or legit?
94 bottles of beer on the wall. 94 bottles of beer! You take one down, pass it around, 93 bottles of beer on the wall. You mean it like that? It would be legit if you bold the number you 5upposed to count and put it later in the post. I really don't know how you mean that. Or something like 99 bottles of beer, but counting the opposite way.
6. Spam would be not posting on a subject. The subject could be anything in this thread and it changes very often - because anybody can change it, then you can post on any subject here. Forum rule against spam is posting minimum 7 word sentences as replies. Also non-contributing replies are highly discouraged. Any reply that is consistent with core rules is contributing in this thread. Therefore my conclusion is that: "it should be allowed to sing in with typing "99 bottles of beer" with twisting (paraphrasing) some words to counting to 100."
8. I think that there are quicker ways of counting to 100 - like 3 or more people meet in the chat. Then make an order. Then inform others when they are done with post. You don't have to refresh 10 times, 1 time is enough to prevent from ruining the count because of fact that anyone can join at any time. That's how we won 5 times in 3 months.
