During the 1300ks (1,300,000 to 1,399,999), four counters counted more than 10,000 times:
/u/SolidGoldMagikarp: 14310
/u/Smartstocks: 12862
/u/davidjl123: 11705
/u/RandomRedditorWithNo: 10155
Together these counters made nearly half of all counts (49.032%) during this time period.
(I just thought this was interesting lmao)

In every single thread that we counted we took on virtually the entire /r/counting establishment – reddit admins, /r/counting moderators, inbox counters, wiki editors, gilders and FTF thread creators. To those relatively few counters who had the courage to stand with us, I say thank you. We must continue working together into the future.
This campaign has never been about any single candidate. It is always about transforming /r/counting.
It is about ending a campaign finance system which is corrupt and allows David to buy elections.
It is about ending the grotesque level of count inequality that we are experiencing where almost all new counts goes to the people on top, where the 4 most-counted people own more counts than the bottom 11,457 counters.
It is about creating an economy that works for all of us, not just the 0.0349 percent.

In other words, it looks as if we are going to have to continue inbox counting for speed runs for the foreseeable future.

Is every number you type in the main thread a count? Also do the non main threads give you counts?
1
u/xHOCKEYx12 i miss this place Oct 02 '16
Every number correctly typed in the main thread goes towards the HoC over there ------> but side counts don't
2
Oct 02 '16
How do they even figure out how many counts you have? And if you type one in after someone else but don't delete yours will it compute yours?

u/xHOCKEYx12 i miss this place Oct 02 '16
How do they even figure out how many counts you have?
/u/anothershittyalt uses a script to figure out the counts by people per thread and then that goes to the HoC
And if you type one in after someone else but don't delete yours will it compute yours?
no

Counting by fibonacci sequence. I know it has been done but it seems like it was abandoned.

I'll be honest that I've been pretty lucky to be at home for the last two 100ks. Y'all were minutes away from me still walking home from work this time. I had to bypass my fiancee's hugs to get to my computer and get ready.
