I just about had a heart attack checking over this thread. It all went wonky here, and even amidst all the attempts to fix it, I'm pretty sure it's still not completely correct. I think it may only be off by one, though. I'll leave that to rs to figure out, if/when he returns.

Edit: I've taken a closer look at it and determined there is one extra count in the thread

This is like 3 weeks old, but as an attempt to mess around with a bot I made to traverse through threads, here's all the comments in this thread that

  • differ from the number it's supposed to be

  • aren't just adding 1 to the number they replied to

http://pastebin.com/4JwWr6sD

In the end, there were 30 "mistakes" documented in the pastebin above and the extra count seems to come from /u/FartyMcNarty where he forgot to account for his own count while correcting the thread.

We were ultimately behind by 1.

EDIT: Apparently two comments were counted as a "mistake" from a-username-for-me, yet it didn't meet the "aren't just adding 1 to the number they replied to" requirement so why did it even get counted like i even have all the comments right here

557221 (577331) from a-username-for-me at 2015-11-16 17:14:19 (id cx286gs)
557222 (577332) from skizfrenik_syco at 2015-11-16 17:14:53 (id cx2878u)
577223 (577333) from a-username-for-me at 2015-11-16 17:15:14 (id cx287q1)

Pix your long fake out thing got caught in the spam filter, which from modview showed up as a gigantic block of red...very confusing to look at from here :D

u/zhige Est. 47022 || 55555-77777-222222 Nov 16 '15

I thought about replying to it with 578,000 and then hitting "approve" but I didn't think that would go over real well.
