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) posts if users and Knights are counting..
b. a user or Knight or Warden posts 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.

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!"

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!

5. So this... unleashed rule tells advices about relations with our wonderful foes. I've found a slightly more reliant source that speaks about that handicap:

Handicap rule. The challenging team, i.e. the team without the current win, may count up to 100 divided by wins by the incumbent team, i.e. the team with the current win, since the last win of the challenging team rounded up or to 100, whichever is lower.
If Team User wins once, Team Mod counts to 100. (100/1 = 100)
If Team User wins two in a row, Team Mod counts to 50. (100/2 = 50)

Ye average number of peasant victories needed to secure those whose names shalt not be spoken a victory is two-hundred divided by twenty-three which lieth nearest to the number nine.
Ye current cripple for those whose names shalt not be spoken is one-hundred divided by eight equaling to thirteen.

Oh, what's that? This books contains the exact time, date and way of death of everyone in this forum game? Wow! Better check that out!

8.
Oh, if it's how the rule works, then the maximum win streak will always be 67 for Team User if the mods never get to count past 2.
Because 67 win streak (x) = 100/x = 100/67 = 1.493, which is still 1 rounded up.
Therefore, if hahiha managed to post once for informative reasons, Team Mods win by default because of handicap rule.

10. ^ That's just the right plan xD But seeing that there were only 38 user wins in total so far, we aren't threatened much with that scenario.
BTW, only 100 wins in a winning streak guarantee the victory with a number 1 if we always round up forumula's results. The rest of that paragraph:

If Team User wins three in a row, Team Mod counts to 34. (100/3 = 33.333... ~34).
and vice versa.

Anyway, if I get the motto from the Untold Rulebook right: Thou shalt not pass!
...tells us to give 'em Balrogs the taste of their own medicine.

12. I'm actually not sure if those-whose-names-shan't-be-spoken can manage more than 2. They can probably get coordinated, but I feel like it would be quite difficult. They seem to be a bit... inactive... right now. I know they're online every day, but they don't seem to do much on the surface.

Also, if you're reading this, pls don't kill me I did nothing wrong here's my lunch money just leave me alone!

He started inspecting it. The letter was addressed from...* Jyoti Amge. Hmm... dunno her, gunna give a read laters. *PR throwed the sealed letter into the air. It landed on the summit of a gargantuan pile ascending from the shelf labelled as "The Forsaken Mail"* Perfect. And now to the gami... *ekhm* gaining contractors.

Wait, nevermind, I mean. Oh, boy, who know the whimsical mysteries hidden in the spooOOoky forsaken mail!

Now to wait as the poison slowly eats away at my myelin sheet, short-circuiting my brain and causing a slow and painful death. God should finish rehab in the time, right? RIGHT?

23. Living in stable, temperate Europe, the craziest weather I've ever experienced was a storm with sleet and heavy rain on one side and sun and light rain on the other side of the house. Then I look at Florida and hurricanes. I like to imagine the hurricane's winds picking up alligators and Bermuda triangle planes and just flinging them all across the east coast. Like Sharknado but with gators. Gatornado.

24. I'm living in the middle of Texas, while I'm definitely not getting anything near what Florida is getting I can safely say that the last month and a half is the most rain I've ever seen in such a short period of time. There are more days where it does rain than when it doesn't, and that really really unusual for this part of Texas.
