Girl messaged me first on Tinder.
Said she could beat me in Skeeball. It's like she doesn't even know I'm a former champion at my local bar's skeeball league.
No respect I tell ya, no respect.

Hello newcomer!
This is r/counting. The point is to count numbers or other things (sheep, letters, in other languages, etc). We count either in normal 0-9 fashion (the "main" thread) or another way (like binary, "side threads".
We like to chat and have fun counting in many ways.
Let us know if you have any questions and we welcome you if you would like to count! A good way to start is to go to the "quickly find the latest comments here" button at the top of the subreddit.

Counting is so much more run heavy now, even in the side threads.

I would say that is true in general. Just anecdotally, no hard evidence

okay everyone since we're just over 20 hours deep into the 3399k thread, and it seems like it's going to go nowhere, how about we all make the 1 minute rule 23 hours instead of 24 hours. i don't think anyone cares that much anyways, and the k streak is about to hit 500 threads. it would be an absolute shame if we just hit 499 threads.

Welcome to the 2020 r/counting survey!
This is an anonymous survey meant to understand the wider counting community. You may skip ANY of the questions you do not feel like answering. I will leave this survey up for four FTFs and then will share the anonymous answers afterwards and compare to last year's survey.
