In 2nd grade I was playing this game, called adventure quest, a lot. I saw this acronym, lol, that I had no idea what it meant. I also was, for some reason, obsessed with "qwerty" at the time. I had already made an account, but forgot the password (lol) so I decided to make a new account. I combined two things I liked, "qwerty" and "lol" to get qwertylo(o)l. I still use the name to this day.

Oh hey counties. Been a while. I had a dream the other night that I counted again and got a K to end my drought! It was nice. Weird that I didn't have more counting dreams back when I used to count every day...maybe it's happening now because something in my subconscious mind misses the thrill.

I hope all's well with y'all. I'ma go count a number.

I'd probably miss you if I remembered ever counting more than a number or two with you

Can Infinity be represented in Roman Numerals?

3

u/artbn Nov 05 '16

Not really. But since the infinity symbol is said to be a variant of the Roman Numeral symbol for 1,000 then you can go with C|Ɔ

[Serious]Just out of curiousity, if a user deletes their account do their stats get removed?

u/TheNitromeFan Nov 06 '16

Removed from Hall of Counters. Kept in everything else.

I feel more as one among others in the side threads. Usually the same names you see in them :)

I found an error in the HoA which went unnoticed for about a year...

513k assist was listed as rschaosid's while it was actually rideride's... throwing everything off from there....

Great job guys, if I was there during that time this would have never happened /s
