Revision as of 19:08, 3 February 2024

Thread series in 2023 HS Courtyard.

Started by Shelli Selby, "Lets Count" was a thread in which people (mostly) counted up (the original thread started at one (presumably- I will not be verifying this))[1] and counting one number per message, with no person going twice in a row. (mostly)


After quite a few messages, (I don't remember how many, exactly, but it was a few thousand) the original thread 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"[2] After another few thousand messages, however, that thread experienced the same problem with lag. Since Shelli Selby left NSA, Hallie Griffin took up the mantle and created a thread called "Lets Count: CONTINUED: Continued."

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, when the old thread was at 9072, Jacob Grady started a new thread called Lets Count: CONTINUED: Continued: Again. the participants have together counted from one to nine thousand, one hundred, and twenty-seven.[3] The thread that Hallie Griffin owned (made October 15th) has 50 respondents (over the course of 2621 messages). The thread that Jacob Grady made currently has 58 replies from six individuals. (I do believe that they began counting backwards at some point around two thousand- I don't know if that is true or if it is when they turned around again and started going forwards, but as of right now it's at 7643 and increasing)

  1. ↑ It did start at one, unless my memory absolutely fails me. I watched it for a while, and then got involved around 400. -Owen
  2. ↑ (I think the "continued" was in all caps? someone fact-check me on this)
  3. ↑ as of November 20, 2023, at 9:48am CST, reported by Samuel Grady.
