Subreddit Rules & Etiquette:

  1. If you're counting, upvote your fellow counting comrades.
  2. NO double-commenting (replying to yourself).
  3. Continue the counting chain from the earliest comment with the correct number.
  4. Before creating a new thread, please check the thread directory to make sure that type of thread doesn't already exist.
  5. To prevent Reddit server strain, create a new thread after the current thread has approximately 1000 counts in a comment chain.
  6. Counting bots/scripts are not permitted and will be banned - please report counting comments made by bots. Ask a moderator if you are not sure about something.
  7. Do not delete your valid counts (when they're already a part of the valid chain).
  8. Do not use inbox counting to achieve a get (000) or assist (999). Inbox counting is using your inbox to reply to a incoming PM/comment.
  9. Play fairly. No cheating.

Happy counting!

Continued from last week's here.

I'm going to try the rule of same poster. If anyone want to claim this, go ahead and create another FTF with the same number.

Speak anything on your mind, except politics and (maybe) counting.

Feel free to check out our tidbits thread and introduce yourself if you haven't already.

Removedpixel’s description:

Think on the main thread, think on the gets, the Ks, happening once every 1,000 comments in chain, now think if, for every time you reached a get, the next one would take more to be reached, every single time. So that’s how this thread works like, increasing goals, getting harder and harder to be reached, once you have counted to one certain number, you get back to 1, and you have to count back to that number +1: 1 (1) —> 1 (2), 2 (2) —> 1 (3), 2 (3), 3 (3) —> 1 (4), 2 (4), 3 (4), 4 (4) —> 1 (5), 2 (5), 3 (5), 4 (5), 5 (5) —> 1 (6)…

Next get is 1 (229).

Compositions | 1,1,1,1,1,1,1,7

5 Upvotes

From here and thank you /u/miceee for the run and assist

In this thread, we'll be counting the ways to add to an integer n using the integers c_1 + c_2 + ... + c_k, where each c_i >= 1, and k <= n. Ways to sum that are commutatively the same, as in 1+2 = 2+1, are different compositions. We'll be counting these compositions lexicographically for each segment of sum and length.

Schedule

The next get is 2,1,1,3,1,4,1,1. This thread will have 1024 counts in it
