Count to 5000

Post by hatkirby »

1

One of the mainstays of the original Fourm was the "Count to 5000" thread. We probably did most of our conversing in there, and we were somewhere in the 3000s by the time the Fourm stopped getting used. So I think it would be fun to start up another one!

The only rule is that you have to start your post with the number that is one higher than the post before. This number should be the number of posts in the thread at the time of your post, and if this gets out of sync due to human error or concurrency, you should post the correct number. You don't have to put anything else in your post, but it's fun to use this thread as an excuse to converse!

Oh, and NO double posting! That's cheating.

Sorry couldn't help it (⁠⁠≧⁠u⁠≦⁠)⁠. I'm learning so much about forum culture!

I'm just testing if you can nest spoilers here.
Outer Spoiler
So.
How deep can this go?
inner spoiler
One Level?
even innerer spoiler
Deeper Still
Approximately 25% of all animals are beetles. Statistically, this means if you're in a room with three other people, at least one of you is a beetle! If you're having trouble identifying the beetle, remember the acronym BEETLE (Beautiful; Elegant; Eats occasionally; Twinkly-eyed; Loving; Escaped to montana in the spring of 83 after faking their own death, starting anew as "gunne olive", a down on their luck dental nurse seeking to get away from the busy city - and the crime syndicates they owe money to - in the country as a ranch hand).

Interestingly enough, if you try and nest further then I posted, the BB code of the forth spoiler and anything within it gets deleted if you preview or post

Oh weird. The ultimate secret. It can't even be stored in a database because it holds too much power. SCP style BBcode.

Rip you can only use fonts up to size 200. I could probably change that but it would also probably not be a good idea lol.

10 I think you should change it star 😈
You humor me greatly with your arrogance and contempt, a flood of accusations born from the poison of envy and smite of disrespect. I feel both disappointment and flattery these thoughts would originate from another player who has demonstrated one of a kind talent and has accomplished the impossible, yet is immune from judgment owing to their reputation, do not think your words hold more credibility just because of who you are, being more well known and what you have accomplished in breaking world records and setting ones never previously accomplished. With that being said I will divulge my thoughts on the serious accusations you have set forth.

I won't address the individual gameplay scenarios you've highlighted, as the foundation of your argument arises from jealously, this is clear when you contrast my success with your failure, being deluded into thinking you should have surpassed these trials yet cannot comprehend how someone else can claim victory consistently,
