Counting to 10,000 Milestone

Introduction
Between the days 14th of October 2018 and 3rd of August 2020, the channel #counting was opened in the POLYNOMERS discord server, the rule of this channel was to keep counting up in numbers until infinity, you were not allowed to count more than one number at a time. This channel achieved many milestones, including 10,000 on the day of its closure. The channel is now archived as a result of hitting the 10,000 milestone.

Before 10,000
The channel was opened two years prior to the 10,000 milestone (on exactly the 14th of October 2018), and consequently the ten-thousand milestone was not the only milestone reached.

Milestones prior to 10,000

 * 1) The first message “1” by user ‘Pamka’ on the 14th of October 2018.
 * 2) “100” reached by user ‘kitkat’ on the 14th of October 2018.
 * 3) “1000” reached by (now inactive) discord bot ‘DonutBot 2’ on the 21st of October 2018.
 * 4) “2500” reached by user ’AkaruiYAGI’ on the 17th of November 2018.
 * 5) “3333” reached by user ‘Enov’ on the 6th of January 2019.
 * 6) “5000” reached by (now inactive) discord bot ‘DonutBot 2’ on the 27th of July 2019.

Reaching 10,000
The first major milestone achieved within the (now archived) #counting channel occurred on the 3rd of August 2020, at approximately 12:39pm PST. The milestone of 10,000 would be the first of many milestones achieved by the community. This circumstance caused Polygon Donut to make his first discord server documentary, this video would be the first of a set of videos which covered events in channels of the discord server. After the event, the channel was closed and furthermore archived. The same day a new channel, named #counting-2, opened and continued the counting trend. The channel was left open to new members who wanted to count, the channel began counting at the number 10,001.

Trivia

 * Polygon Donut went on to make a video on this achievement, publicised on his channel as “My Discord Server Counted to 10,000”
 * The video lists the discord users who counted the most in the channel, being user ‘Cookie Eater’ with 624 counted, user ‘Guardo’ with 800 counted and user ‘Avöka Sauce’ with 1084 counted.
 * The last counted number in the channel is not actually 10,000, a moderator counted to 10,001 shortly after the number was reached.
 * Other media such as images, videos and links were also used to count the next number. Number 711, represented as a logo of the store "7/11" and 7,394 are examples of this.
 * The channel was up for a total of 659 days, with an average of approximately 15 messages per day.
 * The channel was the second ever channel to be archived in the POLYNOMERS server, second after the #polycraft channel.
