Counting

Keep your community engaged with a collaborative counting minigame channel.

Counting turns a text channel into an interactive counting minigame. Members work together to count up by one. If someone makes a mistake, the count resets to zero, celebratory records are tracked, and customizable fail roles and emoji reactions are applied.

Quickstart

Select the channel where members should count.

/counting channel channel:#counting

View your server's counting dashboard to see the active channel, current count, high score, and rules.

/counting config

Send 1 in the configured channel. Members must alternate numbers in sequence: 1, 2, 3, and so on.

Channel management

Set or change channel

/counting channel channel:<channel>
/counting channel channel:#counting

Disable counting

To turn off counting and remove the channel binding, use:

/counting disable

Reset count

Reset the active count back to 0 without affecting the server's all-time high score or historical stats.

/counting reset

Settings & rules

View and adjust counting game rules using /counting config.

/counting config [math:<on or off>] [same_user:<on or off>] [strict:<on or off>]
/counting config math:on same_user:off strict:off

Game options

  • Math mode (math): When enabled, members can type arithmetic math expressions (e.g. 2+2, 10*5, 2^3) instead of plain numbers. All expressions are safely evaluated. Default: on.
  • Same-user / Consecutive counts (same_user): When disabled, a member cannot submit two counts in a row; two different members must alternate. Default: off.
  • Strict mode (strict): When enabled, any message in the channel that is not a valid number or math expression counts as a mistake and breaks the streak. When disabled, normal chatter is ignored. Default: off.

Reactions

Bored reacts to counts automatically to give instant visual feedback.

/counting reactions [correct:<emoji>] [fail:<emoji>] [enabled:<on or off>]
/counting reactions correct:✅ fail:❌ enabled:on
  • Correct count reaction: Defaults to ✅. Multiples of 100 celebrate with 💯, and beating the all-time server record celebrates with 🎉.
  • Fail reaction: Defaults to ❌ when someone makes a mistake.
  • Toggle reactions: Disable or enable bot reactions completely by setting enabled:off or enabled:on.

Fail role

Give a role of shame to whoever ruins the count! When a user enters the wrong number or violates a rule, the fail role is stripped from the previous ruiner and given to the new one.

/counting failrole [role:<role>] [clear:<yes>]
/counting failrole role:@Count Ruiner
/counting failrole clear:yes

Role hierarchy

Make sure bored's highest role is positioned above the fail role in your server's role list so the bot has permission to assign and remove it.
