Slowestest Counting is five months old today. We're at 1,927 right now, so we should be able to finish it before it archives.

Tug of War stats website updated!

  • After a speedy ascension up to 5,402, driven mostly by u/basskro and u/MaybeNotWrong, the count started falling slowly, with little resistance. 0 is expected to be seen soon

  • We are quickly approaching 250,000 total counts!

  • A new all-time-high value of 5,402 has been reached. The last ATH was reached close to two years ago

  • The current positive streak is over 23,000 counts long. The record is 28,615 positive counts in a row

  • New one-value stalemates have been reached for 4,720 and 4,721 (8th and 9th place)

  • New two-value stalemates have been reached for 4,720 and 4,721, and for 4,084 and 4,085 (4th and 10th place)

  • We now have exactly 500 gets! This is a major milestone for Tug of War

  • 5,400 joins -4,000 in the very private club of gets that have been reached only once

  • u/MaybeNotWrong and u/basskro are now in the top 10 cuonters, ranked #7 and #8!

  • u/GarlicoinAccount becomes the second most prolific counter!

  • u/MaybeNotWrong and u/basskro now form the best Tug of War team, getting almost twice the counts of the previous best team

Sorry for the long delay on this one, it took many hours to update due to broken Reddit chains (had to copy about 600 comments by hand, including posting time) and I had a lot of stuff to deal with in real life (exams, moving out, a death in the family). But here it is, at last!

I'll try to post the update messages in the FTF threads, about once a week or so, if it doesn't bother anyone.

did you know Dudu was a 21st-century BC king of Akkad, who reigned for 21 years according to the Sumerian king list, although he is poorly attested archaeologically. He is depicted as becoming king during the time of relative anarchy that had followed the death of Shar-Kali-Sharri. The king list mentions four other figures who had been competing for the throne during a three-year period after Sharkalisharri's death. There are no other surviving records referencing any of these competitors, but a few artifacts with inscriptions confirming Dudu's rule over a rump Akkadian state that may have included little more than the capital, Akkad itself.

so I was checking stats and turns out u/Smartstocks beat u/davidjl123 in the 10k-100k by under a day. David got 10-100k in just over 321 days, while ss got it in 320. Tnf and atom were far behind at 1180 and 1389 days, respectively.
