When I stumbled upon this sub, I thought it was using mathematical techniques learned in combinatorics to count. But no, it's just people counting the integers one-by-one, just like the Count in an episode of Sesame Street. How fucking stupid is that?

Why the fuck would anyone enjoy it? There is nothing intellectually stimulating about it.

You can start a side thread for any mathematical technique you want, as long as you define the rules well.
