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!

39. ChatGPT can be used for creative suggestions. (B2B Warning)
40. Possibly controversial take. I like the idea of generative AI like that for inspiration or as a reference point (I can imagine detailed visuals but have absolutely no artistic ability to visualize it on my own) but, but like others, I don't like the idea of it making final products and replacing jobs.
41. I wouldn’t say that’s controversial at all! it takes all the life out of real art when it just steals from others.
42. The problem with AI is that it only recombines the information of its training samples. So if you do not add new arts, literature and science via human creativity, it will only repeat things which were known before. AI can process a lot of information, but it will destroy the jobs of artists and creative workers and therefore stop our mental and social evolution.
43. Still, AI is capable of keeping the Count to 100 going.
44. Whatever it takes to lock us in ig. If you really think about it (you don't have to think very hard) when we talk about random junk to get us to 100 we kindas ruined the point of the game.
45. That brings up an interesting question: What IS the point of this game?
46. Well originally it served two purposes:
1). A thread for nothing more than natural conversation. No specific topic in mind, just essentially for chatting.
2). Chaotic fun. Back in Ye Elden Days this thread was active enough that some of the counts were done in like 30 minutes so it was fast and hectic trying to get to 100 without mistakes
47. Armor games is super nostalgic. anybody else used to love Crush the Castle?
48. Those were always some of my favorites. B2B warning
49. Helping your b2b, not that long ago we actually had a count to 100 in only a few days so if we are dedicated enough we could do it again (I wish).
I feel that og ag users are really blinded by nostalgia. I mean come on, old beloved games were made in two weeks by someone with little experience, in hindsight its just a fun way to waste an hour. But hey, what do I know?
50. I really enjoy nostalgic games. Sometimes I even play my old C64- or SNES-Games. Today I use an emulator, that's way more convenient to set up the old hardware.
51. Can’t publicly say you emulate Nintendo games or software, they are truly an evil company!
B2B!!!!
52. Nintendo really is the worst. Creating entire patents for the sole purpose of suing Palworld is just plain horrible. Down with Nintendo!
53. Why should I stop playing games which were made by Square Enix or Capcom because someone dislikes the Nintendo-Hardware which they were originally made for? That would be like stopping to play flash games with ruffle because I don't like Adobe or Macromedia. Makes no sense to me.
