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!

38. Well I don't specialize in these things. I just believe in Quantum Mechanics, its principles weren't contradicted by any sane theories, so why not?
There's a chance that Russians will prove it soon:
Making matter and antimatter from photons
This is thing that is going f.e. near black holes. But all we see are astrophysical jets. The rest is just a theory (based on another theory that photons might create matter and antimatter). That theory is called Hawking radiation.
Actually there's one more thing, which makes that we have to believe that light is a matter. If it wasn't then E=m*c^2 would be false. That's because we know that photons are made from concentrated energy. They are massless only because they have zero rest energy.
39. Science is interesting, but I don't understand it because I'm stupid and lazy.
40. Well, Quantum Physics are probably the hardest field in Science, so I won't consider you're stupid if you don't understand them.
2. @ranggagreat Please write at least 7 word (and not trolling) messages. Otherwise we loose even completed counts.
@kalisenpai For me the hardest fields of physics are these more boring and Quantum Mechanics is kinda interesting.
3. Black day outside with hail, good time to catch up with some quests
4. @PLGuy, well, it might be a matter of perspective, but the little I've studied about Quantum Physics was like hell to me, compared to the rest of the Physics XD
Here's it's cloudy. I hope it rains: it's been like 3 months since last time
5. hey, coming back after few days away, i hope you didn't complete the count without me, if not, let's count to 100 this week end !
6. I'm going to play ShellShock Live 2, if anybody wants to play with me. (I'm really bad at this game and I'm only playing for the quests, so don't set your expectations too high XD)
7. @sciller45
Anyways, don't photons have properties of both particles and light?
To be exact photons are elementary particles of light. To be even more exact:
A photon is a type of elementary particle, the quantum of the electromagnetic field including electromagnetic radiation such as light and the force carrier for the electromagnetic force (...). The photon has zero rest mass and always moves at the speed of light within a vacuum.
Just so you don't have to look in wikipedia xD
@Olaffours No we didn't. Only once we were at 57.
8. @PLGuy TBH that doesn't really tell me much. I looked it u- Wait a minute. Whoops! I wanted to type in both particles and waves - Not light! Now I feel even more stupid.
9. Oh, no reason for that. Typo is a typo. However you won't beat me in them (typos) no matter how hard you try! I remember that I confused inventory with environment once xD
10.ah ah typos ... my collegue at works wrote "WC" on her phone this afternoon, and it corrected it as "scientist" xD
