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!

14. Just putting this here.
984. Now let me play in peace for a while.
15. why not put it over there?
985. peace is for the weak
16. Because I want to put it here, that's why.
986. Peace during chaos is for not for the weak, you cannot achieve that level of enlightenment.
This is not meant to be a disruptive post - please do seriously continue on with the count as if this post isn't here. I just wanted to remind you guys of one of the rules:
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.
In particular, 'Posts with intentional mistakes should be ignored'. This, in effect, makes the Ct100 thread 'untrollable' (in the relevant sense). It's fine that you guys started over - I'm just letting you know that you didn't have to in this case since the post was clearly an intentional miscount.
At any rate, do carry on as normal.
18! Thanks for not disrupting our count Lord Moe
Although I have a (probably stupid) question: If a user intentionally made a mistake but made it in a way that it doesn't look like one (for example, the same user that just recently disrupted the count counted the same number as if he was ninja'd), should it be ignored?
19. I'm not qualified to anwer that question so I'm going to ignore it.
987. So, How's your day going?
20. Studying... I want summer so badly
@NietzTheBlitz maybe only if it is obvious that they did it on purpose?
21. What's your favorite season?
988. Mine would be Summer so I can slack off even more, But I hate heat and I have Pollen Allergy
@NietzTheBlitz - This a great question, but it's one that difficult to answer. I mean, now we're talking about determining the intentionality of the user
Since this is Gantic's thread, he would have final say about cases like this. But I would imagine he would be okay with the following advice: use your best judgment. If you reasonably believe that the user is intentionally disrupting the count (or trolling the thread in some other way) then you're reasonable in ignoring the post and going on with the count, uninterrupted.
The thing is that people actually trying to troll this thread aren't common happenings. The vast majority of mistakes are people getting ninja'd, not realising the count as moved on to a new page or new users who haven't read the rules. Since none of these are intentional, they would reset the count as usual. It would take a sad, somewhat pathetic individual to actually waste their time in order to repeatedly troll the thread. So I think we're safe in dealing with that situation if it actually arises, rather than focusing on it too much.
And, as before, this is just an information post - not a disruptive one. So please continue on with the count!
23. I like summer @Majestic_Fish, mainly because I do like heat and I don't have allergy.
Trigon, I think I remember you from posts when I started posting (not so long ago, though).
26. This is a cake. It is a carrot cake. It is also a lie. Therefore there is no cake.
