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!

74. Ah, I suppose I've played a few JRPGs, or I suppose JRPG-inspired flash games.
I've a backlog the size of a small planet, but still... If you could play only ONE game in the genre, which one would you pick?
75. There are a lot of good picks, I do enjoy several Final Fantasy Games immensely, and Kingdom hearts is always fantastic. However, I'd say the one I'm currently (re)playing, Tales of Symphonia, would by far have to take the cake. Many of them are great, but none others provide the same replayability.
76. If Final Fantasy counts as a JRPG then that's one I've enjoyed. FFX for the win.
77. I'd say Final Fantasy is very near synonymous with JRPGs
78. Yes certainly, its probably the best known example of the genre.
79. T - 21 numbers. Check ignition. Weather conditions within acceptable parameters.
80. Nothing short of... whatever the opposite of a miracle can stop us now
81. "The view of the Earth from the Moon fascinated me -- a small disk, 240,000 miles away. . . . Raging nationalistic interests, famines, wars, pestilence don't show from that distance."
84. I doubt it; I expect only a few bases there for scientists, astronauts, and maybe miners. The moon is too small to permanently hold an atmosphere.
85. Between the gravity making you lose bone mass, the lack of atmosphere causing higher radiation than on Earth and how harsh moon dust is, I doubt there will be much up there for extended lengths
86. What I'm more interested in is theoretically optimal rocket technology. How far will that get humans in space?
87. I've always wondered. If we wanted to become an inter-galactic species, we'd have to make rockets that sail at close the speed of light (assuming there's no way to generate negative gravitational mass for FTL drives.) But it'd still take 4-and-a-bit years to reach just Proxima Centauri.
Whichever way you cut the rest, you'd be functionally dead to your friends and family. You'd be speeding along, alone, always at full risk of being ripped apart by a cloud of atoms.
I like to imagine a lone drifter, like in a Western. Moving planet to planet. Never staying too long. With each jump taking you not just millions of miles, but also hundreds of years into the future.
88. I think more realistically, and I don't think it's all that realistic, being interstellar, let alone intergalactic, would require wormholes, or something similar that would allow us to circumvent the speed of light, otherwise I don't think it'll ever happen
