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!

13. "We Shall Overcome" is the unofficial anthem of human history.

16. I wouldn't call it crazy; look at how many tweets there are for example.

18. Not as popular as the "How Mattchstick Are You?" contest would be.

19. Obviously, such a contest would break this website with its popularity.

20. Guess what, I was banned from the AG Discord this morning. Didn't get a warning, just was suddenly unable to rejoin. And yes I'm certain, because @R2D21999 sent me a new link and it said "the user is banned from this guild."

gg Armor Games.

21. Y'know, I spent a long time wondering why I kept getting banned. Was it just an excuse to ban me over something else? Am I at fault for killing the forums?

Now I wonder if AG actively wants to kill its community like AGU offed itself.

Also, dang, PLGuy was supposed to hold a How PLGuy Are You? Contest. Alas, no dicerino.

22. Perhaps "Episode VIII: The Last Count" would be a more appropriate title then.

23. That is pretty odd that they seem to be actively avoiding making improvements to things..

23. Oh hey, my favorite number. Seems like an appropriate note to end on, since I'll be logging off now, and this time I won't be back.
Killed the count one last time. Lel.

1. Mmm yes. Unfortunately it doesn't seem that they have much interest in working on the site, much less the forums or its community, with how broken everything is. Now they're even pushing back any efforts of revival with unjust and unexplained bans. Maybe it's time I go back to being dormant if this is how they treat their users.

If anyone's interested in connecting with me again, you'll find me on the HowLongToBeat forums or their Discord. Same username and everything
