  7. and when Bucky_Barnes exclaims extreme excitement over obscure #'s like 457,928 - especially when he'd do that to a newbie, they'd be so confused.

  14. My name is Whitney - for some reason on Reddit - you are automatically assumed to be a male LOL.
  15. I identify as a female, especially since I was born one - and have always been one....
  16. Soooooooooo quit referring to me as he!!

  18. I'm TEAM COMMA's forever!
  19. *
  20. I believe I coined the terms: Extreme counting & Extreme counter
  21. *
  22. Looking forward to seeing the big 1,000,000 get - I have little doubt that this sub will hit the big-time via main stream media mentions when it gets to the 990,000 point.
  23. If you are interested in how this all started - a link to where it all began
  24. https://www.reddit.com/related/uuikz/lets_count_to_infinity_by_1s/[5]

  26. Here are a few links to mentions of this sub outside of Reddit:

  28. http://mashable.com/2014/09/24/counting-subreddit/[7]
  29. *
  30. Interested in WHY?!?!? they count here? I tried to get down to the bottom of it myself - the convo was funny... several said THEORY 6 best described their WHY...
  31. THEORIES on why they count here[8]
  32. *
  33. An interesting tidbit about this sub - it once took:
  34. 28 days 14 hours - to count 1k
  35. *
  36. I've been asked why I spend so much time here but don't actively count- so here is why if you are interested:
  37. I once had a very serious and unhealthy internet addiction - it would be very unhealthy for me to ever go back to that. I have to actively set boundries on the amount of time I spend on the internet per day/week. Do to my addictive personality - if I were to start actively counting I am 100% sure I'd do it to much and shatter my "rules" on how much time I spend on the net per day/week. I have made my one contribution to this historical quest however.
  38. But I've upvoted 90% of the posts here over the past 5 months...so whenever you have a mysterious upvoter it's probably me! My upvotes are my contribution while I wait patiently for my Infinity assist - are we there yet? It's ok - I'm prepared to wait!
  39. More info to come.

  55. A: A friend from another sub led me here.
  56. Q: Why do you count so much?

  58. Q: Why are you not counting as often lately?
  59. A: I decided to take a small break from constantly refreshing the page in hopes of speedcounting. And, as it turns out, there are other ways to spend my free time. I have many hobbies, so I'm never bored.

  107. [–]RIPGeorgeHarrison Since 430,203 | 1 get | 1 assist | 3 runs | 10 points 3 months ago*
  108. #5 - /u/RIPGeorgeHarrison ( I can't believe I am doing this)
  109. 1) First Number: 430,203 Edit: I remember how I discovered this sub now! So right after /u/ekjp (aka Ellen Pao) resigned, I was checking out her comment history every once in a while, mostly because I was upset with how redditor's were treating her, especially since she was being completely professional. Anyways, I already knew she was a mod of /r/casualconversations, but then I saw that she commented in a place called /r/counting, and I was thinking "what the hell is this place?" So I went and checked it out, and now I can't stop counting.
  110. 2) Stats: 1 get, 1 assist, unknown Palindromes
  111. 3)Location: Salt Lake city, Utah
  112. 4) Participating because it is oddly entertaining doing this.
  113. 5) Favorite moments: I don't know. Getting my first run with /u/Bluesolid made me feel like a member of the team I guess.
  114. 6) 2nd Favorite Sub: Either /r/subredditdrama or /r/worstof
  115. 7) Favorite website outside of reddit: Wikipedia
  116. 8) Hobbies: Hiking, photography, reading, learning, counting (duh) etcetera
  117. 9) Motto: Treat yo self
  118. 10) Tips: Before commenting, (unless in a run), check at least two comments above you before commenting. In trickier threads this will save a lot of mistakes.

  125. My third favorite United States government agency is the United States Geological Survey.
  126. Edit: After much thought, my fourth favorite United States government agency is the United States Fish and Wildlife Service, followed closely by.
  127. My fifth favorite United States government agency, the United States Forest Service. (8 and a half edit. Adding more tidbits as I go because why not?)
  128. I hope to be an ecologist/Environmental scientist.
  129. My sixth favorite United States government agency, after a lot of thought, would have to be the Department of Veterans affairs. Even though I have heard it be criticized for being inefficient, It just might be the most well intentioned government agency.

  133. #6 - /u/atomicimploder
  134. 1) My first number was 152,042 and I discovered /r/counting from a list made by the BBC of the 5 strangest online communities.
  135. 2) Stats: 37 ks, 63 999s. Over 83,000 comments made here on /r/counting. Highest rated comment in /r/counting's history.
  136. 3) I live in Ohio, USA.
  137. 4) I participate in /r/counting simply because I think it's a fun way to kill time. I also enjoy the community aspect of it. I enjoy counting with all the fine folks here. I enjoy the challenge of finding mistakes and fixing them. I just think it's an all-around fun time.
  138. 5) My favorite moment is when I got 200k. I became a bit of a star for a short while and it was nice.
  139. 6) My second favorite sub here on Reddit is pretty cliche but it would have to be /r/AskReddit
  140. 7) My favorite websites outside Reddit include Youtube, Tumblr, and Rabbit.
  141. 8) Throughout my entire life, I have never known what to say when asked about hobbies. So...yeah.
  142. 9) I don't really have a motto or a favorite quote/saying.
  143. 10) As for tips, I would have to agree with Nitrome about always refreshing after you post a number, and if you see you were late, go ahead and delete it. I also have to say always always ALWAYS make sure you're replying to the earliest comment if there is more than one of the same number!!! There is no reason for incorrect chains to happen, but I see them happen fairly often. Also, nobody's perfect but please please please always try and do your best to make sure you're posting the correct number. And also check the last few numbers to make sure there haven't been any mistakes that you will make worse by continuing from.

  147. Contrary to what most people would probably think, I have a girlfriend. We are in a long-distance relationship and we hope to meet sometime relatively soon. We've Skyped every single day for months and it's been very nice. She makes me very happy. (I've even told her about my very active counting lifestyle, and she still wants to be with me. I've got a keeper.)

  149. I want to thank /u/Whit4You for putting this thread together. I think this was a wonderful idea. I'm so sorry it got deleted. I don't think there's any reason we shouldn't be able to have a thread like this, but I suppose /u/moonflower knows better than I about what should and shouldn't be here. Also thanks to everyone that has participated in this or will decide to participate in the future, it's great learning a little bit about everyone :)

  154. 2)I've gotten 70 palindromes in the main thread so far, equaling to 25% of all the palindromes since I'm in the sub, I attempt to be the person with most of this beautiful numbers in the sub, but lately I've been having competence :P
  155. I also have 11 Ks so far, with also 32 assists
  156. My biggest achievement is probably being the champion of 420K, that's it.
  157. I am looking for the big 1 111 111, and also for the 999 999 :P
  158. 3) I live in Málaga, South of Spain.
  159. 4) Wait we are going to infinity together? And YOU BOUGHT TICKETS FOR ME? OMFG YOU ARE SO NICE, I LOVE YOU ALL
  160. 5) All probably <3 but besides the 420K, it would probably be all the times I've blamed /u/Mooraell , ayy lmao.
  161. 6) I don't really know, I don't use reddit much, only for this sub. But I will choose r/AskReddit since is the one I always go to when I go look for copy-pastas (will explain later)
  162. 7) Probably twitch.tv, where I spend the whole day chatting with people in chatgroups with people that know each other, besides what most twitch is, I also spam here all the things that I find in /r/AskReddit
  163. 8) Sleeping, eating, sprinting (I played as wing at rugby)
  164. 9) 'Bloodlines mean nothing, the one who are close to you are there for a reason' (IDK the exact one of it, in case it is even a quote, but yes I hate my family)
  165. 10) You can always ask the others!

  187. #8 - /u/Mooraell
  188. 1) 314,011 (thanks a lot, /u/rschaosid [-3] ,no idea how you found it), made on 4th January 2015,
  189. 2) I don't go for the gets and I count a lot from mobile and in side threads, so I take pride in my overall r/counting karma, which amounts to 33832 right now
  190. 3) A village near Katowice, Poland (moving to Warsaw in a month)
  191. 4) What attracts me to counting is the fact that it doesn't have a set goal, thus the possibilities are not restricted. I also appreciate the possibility to exactly track the progress of projects I participate in and see the results immediately (that's why I like RPGs and hate workout). Finally, I got to know a couple of nice people during these eight months and chatting with them is always fun.
  192. 5) My favourite moment was probably assisting Pixel with 420k get and the thread just after that, when each comment included '420 count it' phrase. But I also enjoy our sudden surges of speed, like that weekend we blazed 8Ks that Nitrome mentioned
  193. 6) r/Askreddit as well. Always gives me a good laugh, and can sometimes unexpectedly educate me.
  194. 7) myanimelist.com Wikipedia/YouTube/Gmail were mentioned, so I'll have to go with Facebook
  195. 8) Apart from counting, I enjoy speedcounting, fishing, skiing and travelling. I don't have many permanent hobbies, my favourite activities change every few months. I value open-mindness more than devotion.
  196. 9) I don't really have a motto.
  197. 10) Have a better internet provider than I do if you want to be fast :/ When it comes to style, use commas.

  210. #9 - /u/NoBreadsticks
  211. 1) 217,243. I think I came from an askreddit thread.
  212. 2) 12k's and 14 assists. I'm on the leaderboard for both assists and gets. Favorite get is probably BAAA actually, or 100k on live counting.
  213. 3) Ohio (sup atomic!)
  214. 4) Its just really chill around here and getting a good run in is a good way to kill time. The community is really good too. <3
  215. 5) Favorite moment is also probably when did 8k in a day. I also liked the 300k and 400k threads. There have been many funny moments here, just can't really pick one out in particular.
  216. 6) /r/MLS! Huge fan of the Columbus Crew, so having a place to talk about the league and stuff is really fun. honorable mentions include: /r/anime_irl, /r/AskReddit, /r/videos, and /r/youtubehaiku
  217. 7) Gosh, we are all so similar. Youtube/Wikipedia/Twitch/TagPro/FlashScore
  218. 8) I enjoy playing and watching pretty much any sport. I follow soccer, football, hockey, and baseball pretty closely, but soccer is definitely my favorite. I also change hobbies pretty often, I don't have a very long attention span.
  219. 9) "If it seems like too much of an effort, don't do it" <-- completely just bullshitted that quote, but I'm an incredibly lazy person so that captures my essence.
  220. 10) Have fun! Also, use commas you heathens.

  230. 2) Your stats: 0 gets, 1 assist, a lot of palindromes
  231. 3) Ho Chi Minh city, Vietnam
  232. 4) Why we participate in the quest of infinity: Human psychology, i think. We humans have a tendency to complete things, i.e. if you haven't completed a game, you will want to continue until completion. And the nature of infinite-length sets is that it's never completed, you will always want to count, you cannot escape the counting, the quest to Infinity.
  233. 5) Funniest moment: definitely whenever /u/bluesolid posts gifs and brags about his waifu/husbando. the 420k counting thread is also cool. ALSO /u/rschaosid [-3] IS BACK is the best thing in my counting life.
  234. 6) Your 2nd favorite sub here on reddit: /u/codelyoko best anime. /u/steinsgate is also good.
  235. 7) Favorite website outside of reddit: Wikipedia, Bad Astronomy, Youtube, DuckDuckGo ofc.
  236. 8) Other hobbies: worldbuilding (horribly), writing (horribly), coding (possibly horribly), binge watching tv shows after their hiatus
  237. 9) Favorite saying: "I'd rather not talk about it" - Jim Morales

  251. 1) My first number was 460,125 in the infinity thread.
  252. 2) I'm rather new to this sub so I haven't gotten any notable stats to mention at the moment. However, I expect that I'll be updating this section in the near future.
  253. 3) I was born in Canada, but I'm currently hailing from Queensland, Australia
  254. 4) The community in this subbreddit seems decent and the desire to see how high we can count towards is rather enticing.
  255. 5) The funniest moment for me was when I decided to bake and serve brownies infused with habanero hot sauce to unsuspecting members of a pot-luck dinner. It was great watching the horrified faces of numerous individuals running for the fridge at the same time.
  256. 6) I come to reddit for casual stories, funny memes and interesting gifs so a list of my favorite subreddits would be:
  257. /r/TIFU[2] (even though the majority of stories are at least exaggerated)
  258. /r/catastrophicfailure[3]
  259. /r/talesfromtechsupport[4]
  260. /r/funny[5]
  261. /r/WritingPrompts[6]
  262. 7) Outside of reddit I'm a professional so I frequent the following sites:
  263. ZDNet[7] for technical news.
  264. NASA[8] for cool space photos and updates on the proposed Mars mission.
  265. Bad Astronomy[9] for science related news and cool (maybe even scary) facts.
  266. 8) Science, Technology and playing Quidditch.
  267. 9) I'm going to have to think about this one. Too many good quotes to choose from.

However, I don't let it dissuade me from aiming to achieve my goals. I've got a upcoming appointment for a cochlear implant assessment so I can schedule a surgery in the near future. I'm rather excited that I'll eventually be able to get a CI for the following reasons:
  272. I will be a real life Cyborg with wires in my head enabling me to listen through a bionic ear.
  273. I should be able to use the phone because I'll no longer have to rely so heavily on lip-reading.
  274. It'll be easier to get the job I really want.
  275. Hopefully I will no longer have to encounter idiots who automatically think I can't read, swim, drive or am retarded just because my ears are broken.
  276. Group discussions will no longer be the nightmare they currently are. Imagine trying to lip-read when the conversation keeps passing from one person to the next. It's next to impossible.
  277. I'm currently studying for my Information and Communication Technology degree at a University. I know what I want, but being the cautious person I am I've also got two backup plans in case plan A doesn't work out. So far the careers I've picked out for after I graduate are:
  278. a) System analyst
  279. b) System administrator
  280. c) Programmer
  281. Ultimate Life Goals
  282. I don't like the idea of dying and having my personal achievements, what I've learned, my hopes and dreams die with me. Thus, the obvious solution is to cheat death, so I'd like to achieve immorality, whether I get to retain a physical presence in what we call reality or be stored as a self-aware virtual program in an virtual world. However, if immorality is not achievable and I have to die, then my wish is to be ejected into space and spend my final days admiring the universe from an different vantage point.

  329. #14??? - /u/rideride
  330. One day I saw an askreddit thread, asking for a weird subreddit they stumbled on that they loved. Someone replied with /r/thomasthedankengine. I went there and thought it was funny, then forgot about it. About a month later, I remembered that sub again and went back, went to the top posts, and saw this. There I saw /r/counting, and went there. Back then the sub had the old banner. Like many people for some reason, I didn't see the giant blue box telling people to go to /r/counting/comments, so I went to atomic's profile to find the latest number, and went down from there. My first comment was 188,123.
  331. 20 gets so far. Favorite was 398K
  332. I'm from the USA
  333. It's a great community, and it's also like a multiplayer incremental game.
  334. this and probably the 53 minute speedcount.
  335. I hang out in /r/smashbros a lot. It's the reason I joined reddit.
  336. There's this small forum I go to. Small enough where everyone knows each other but large enough to stay active. I go by a different name there, so I'm not going to say
  337. Smash bros and watching some sports.
  338. Pizza is like sex: Even when it's bad, it's expensive.
  339. If you want to count fast: Don't use RES.
  340. Also, I made an in depth tutorial to my method if anyone's interested
  341. Other tidbits:
  342. Last night I got my first ever get outside of the main thread.
  343. I use commas

  407. Your first # if you remember it & how you discovered /r/counting: Oh God, I have no idea. I'd say in the 350k or so. I found it in an AskReddit thread and was delighted to see that other people are crazy about numbers. Unless they do it for the sweet, sweet karma?
  408. Your stats: # of GETS, favorite GET etc.: I mostly stay in the 12345/four fours thread. I used to post in the main thread, but... It gets boring. I like the mathematical challenge that only the 12345 and the four fours threads can provice :) Anyway, no, I don't have any memorable/favorite gets. Every number is a challenge in itself!
  409. Country you are counting from (and city if you want): Grenoble, France
  410. Why you are participating in this quest to Infinity: Because numbers, of course! Why else?
  411. Your favorite, or funniest moment here: My favorite moment is when we get in a counting spree, with two people replying withing seconds of each other. Happened once with /u/TheNitromeFan in the main thread.
  412. Your 2nd favorite sub here on Reddit: /r/AskReddit, /r/minecraft, /r/SubredditSimulator. Man, I have no clue.
  413. Your favorite website(s) outside Reddit: Kongregate.
  414. Other hobbies you have besides being an extreme counter: Mostly coding and playing incremental games. Come to /r/incremental_games! Or don't and save your life.
  415. Your MOTTO - OR favorite quote/saying: Absolutely no idea.
  416. Your tips, hints & strategies you use here to count: Refreshing often, and using a calculator nearby for the 12345 thread. Also, reusing an expression helps.
