The original thread simply had the title of "lets count" and was posted on September 12th, 2022. After quite a few messages, it started to get very laggy. If you went to notifications in teams, and the top one was a reply in the counting thread, it would crash teams, if not your whole computer. So, Shelli created a new thread called "Lets count: CONTINUED" on 4/10/23. However, that thread eventually experienced the same problem with lag. Since Shelli Selby had since left NSA, [[Hallie Griffin]] took up the mantle and created a thread called "Lets count: CONTINUED: Continued" on 10/15/23. At the beginning of 2024, that thread also began to lag significantly. It lagged so much that the participants started talk of making a new thread. On February 3, 2024, [[Jacob Grady]] started a new thread called Lets count: CONTINUED: Continued: Again.

One interesting thing about these threads is the number of reactions they get. For example, the original "lets count" thread had 30 reactions, of 13 different types. "Lets count: CONTINUED" had 39 reactions, 23 of which were the infinity emoji. "Lets count: CONTINUED: Continued" had 24 reactions with the infinity emoji. (this might be a record for most number of the same reaction? I'm not sure.)

The record for the most amount of numbers posted in a short period of time was set by [[Isaac Rivers]] and [[Jacob Grady]], when they posted a combined total of 279 numbers in 18 minutes. (If you have a recorded instance of larger amounts in the same time, please edit this)

At some point around two thousand, they began counting backwards - I'm not sure if that is true, or if it is, when they turned around again and started going forwards.<ref><cite class="note">Confirmed by [[Samuel Grady]]: After 2082, [[Keene Elkins]] jumped to 2100. [[Sunda Schwertfeger]] then proceeded to count backwards (probably to correct the jump). Then, after a few hundred backwards-counting messages, the counting continued forwards as normal (is there anything normal at northstar?), with some mild confusion to those who saw this afterward.</cite></ref>
