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!

2. I could probably answer your rhetorical question of "What is life if not an irony?" But I'll spare you the wordiness and me the unnecessary thought. P.S. Sorry about the B2B, I'll pay more attention later.
3. This time it didn't matter literally at all and you are very good at CT100 anyway.
I fixed the riddle and post it again...
Convert the time and get a word as an answer. Last letter is unconvertable in the other way.
Hmm... I thought about making a forum game in which whoever wants posts a riddle and then after it is solved somebody can post another riddle. Does anybody know about such topic that is at least in a minimum extent live?

1. @PLGuy - there was a riddle thread but I'm pretty sure it died a while back. I would suggest making a new thread of your own. That way you could set up the thread's rules however you wanted. I tried to find the old thread, but with so many forum games, it's just buried somewhere (there is one that I saw, but it's not the one I was thinking of). I think it was pretty popular when it was going, so a new thread might do quite well.
Oh, and I'm going to give what I think is the answer to the riddle on your profile (don't want to spoil it for anyone). Could you let me know if I'm right? (I really like that clocks puzzle!)
1. Don't mind if I'm not as active anymore I have to start studying for this big test to try to get into this school (the test is in December btw). So um. ye.
2. Blessings on the test! I'm sure you will do really well having started studying this early.
3. That's something that more people should do...
Including me...
4. I mean, I procrastinate as well. Procrastinating is horrible, yet terrible common. Maybe I should take a valuable lesson from @DiamondHunterZ
5. Filler post. Pretend it's relevant to the conversation at hand.
6. I wouldn't be able to come up with anything else relevant either, don't worry about it.
8. @Moegreche Thanks and congrats! And you solved it right without any extra clues - that's something I hoped for xD I'll think about the rules of such thread including some points but I'll start it rather after FishPreferred's challenge.
9. What do you call a Soviet Orchestra that's just returned from a tour in the West?
