Counting Game - A Fun Forum Word Game

In summary, Counting Game is simple. Each person starts with "1" and the next person posts the number following it (2), the next posts the number following it (3) and so on. If an incorrect number is posted, then carry on with the correct number. The game is ended when the player gets to "infinity". If they get there before someone else, they win. If someone else gets there first, they win by counting up from "1". There is also a hint for the next number, but it's not mathmatical.

Counting Game

This forum word game is simple. You start of with "1" and the next person posts the number following it (2), the next posts the number following it (3) and so on.

No double posting
If an incorrect number is posted, then carry on with the correct number.

I'll start:

1

Note: I sent a pm to Evo and she told me that this doesn't qualify as spam :tongue2:

No, no, that doesn't work! Try:

[tex]\left\lfloor \mbox{ 2nd zero of } J_1(x) \right\rfloor[/tex]

Mattara you double posted! You posted 1 and then you posted 2, that, in my opinion, is breaking the rules! The rules which you stated!

Actually the next person needs to post "eight", I can't do it because I posted "seven"...
 
  • #16
Alright I will do 8, that is, if I don't screw it up.
