Default Count To 50 (Ponies v. Non-Ponies) XXIII: Numbers and Stuff

Ho hum. Here's another thread. Rules are below, in case you forgot them (or never knew and were just posting numbers randomly).

Normally, non-ponies add 1 to the count, and ponies (i.e. people with a My Little Pony/equine avatar) subtract 1. However, once the count reaches 1 above/below the record for non-ponies or ponies, respectively, the game enters PANIC. The moment a pony posts (Or non-pony, if the ponies have broken their record), the count is reset to 0. You have to try to increase the record as much as you can before PANIC is stopped. When that side wins, they get a point, the count is reset to 0, and their record is reset to ±10.

The Three-Post Rule is in effect, meaning that you need to wait for three people to post after you do, or else your post won't count.

Additional information: The Three-Post Rule applies across the thread boundaries due to the special nature of this game.

A note I'd like to add: Please don't forget about panic. If someone could PM me whenever we get reset to 0, that'd be much appreciated.

Non-Pony Record: 40
Pony Record: -44
Non-Pony Wins: 6
Pony Wins: 5
Days since someone complained about the count: 0 (heh, this will never change)

The thread begins a step in the hole at -2. Enjoy!

Negative four. What happened to monasteries destroyed? That was a good counter, I thought.

It means whatever I want it to.

So, bacon.

@Balmas - I might change it to "Days since someone complained about the OP"

@v +1 for the reference.
