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!

1. We seem to have missed that, so I'm restarting now.

2. Technically no, because there is no seconds bit there. It could have been posted at 350 and edited at 310.

Actually this isn't true. I tested this myself, you always have a full 30 seconds to make and save your edit. If you post at 359, then edit and save your edit at 328 (that's 29 seconds), the edit tag will not appear.

Here are the full results of my edit testing.

- You must edit and save your post within 30 seconds.

- You must save your edit within 30 seconds. This means hitting the edit button within 30 seconds but not saving until after 30 seconds will cause the post to have the last edited tag.

-You do not need to refresh the page, within 30 seconds, after saving an edit. So, no worries if the edit/save button says saved for a while.

- You always have a full 30 seconds to make and save an edit. This means that if you make a post at 729 PM and then edit and save your post at 705 PM, the code will see this as within 30 seconds. The code does not consider this as a 1 minute difference.

If the number is wrong, you're supposed to start again, so even if everything else is "right" it doesn't matter. If the edit tag shows up, it always means it took a user more than 30 seconds to make the edit, so it means start again. As for mods, they don't have to post 0, when restarting the count, but sometimes will (unless Gantic makes a clarification here). I happened to post zero in my post. But at least the count was only 2 , and then 5. But I haven't posted too much in the thread. I'll probably go back into sleeper mode soon. :]

3. I doubt Mods take too kindly to insults. Especially, if they make no sense.
