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!

2. Ayy, dibs on 2 again! Anyways...
Rule number 1
Wait. No.
Rule Number 2! Do not call out them. Those evil people.
3. Restart once again, OK, but for the cameo of MrDayCee? Totally worth it.
5. I don't know what to write here in this post. Any ideas? :|
This is a filler post.
6. You could add some ridiculous fact. Like in Switzerland it’s illegal to own only one guinea pig.
7. I think guinea pigs don't like living alone (i.e. without another guinea pig), so if that's true, that law would make sense. Owning only one guinea pig could be seen as animal cruelty then.
8. I guess it makes sense, especially that Swiss law involves every social animal. But it seems overprotective in my reality.
9. We should just make one giant city and leave the rest of the world for agriculture. Future lack of space problems? Solved. Boom. Loneliness? Make everything shared. Boom. Solved. Endangered animals? Now they're not. Boom. Solved. All jobs replaced by robots? Make everything free. Boom. Solved. Utter lack of human meaning? Send them all to colonize space. Boom. Solved. Humans can't survive the trips? Send robots insted. Boom. Solved.
Somewhere, sometime I had a direction I wanted to go with this post. Reduce it to meaningless filler! Boom. Solved. Thank me later.
10. There’s one fault in this robotic communism. Namely, homo sapiens, killing one another for differences. Any AI controlling such society would replace the faulty species with ant-like robots.
Applying Swiss laws: Humans are social animals, ergo it should be illegal to let a human be alone :P
11. But if we're gonna not let humans alone, that is, if they HAVE to be together, let's not make very large groups, only put together people who... well... can live well with each other and this kind of thing... we can't do it carelessly!
And preferably, make groups with the same number of males and females... we don't want them... to... well... you know what I mean... that would make them kill each other less often, allowing the species to keep existing for longer
1. Reset... reason? Hmmm... well, because it's monday,
2. Let's double that!
You're right kalisenpai, that law ensures even pets are held species-appropriately, which for animals with social behaviour includes conspecifics.
1. No, pal. It's monday and I'm a sadist.
Phew. And here I thought I was gonna get ripped to shreds for my robotic communism. And I just remembered the meaning. A joke about robotic communism or something about robo-gulags.
2. I wouldn't like to be replaced by a ant-robot, being honest...
