Petto checks each number: * The right number gets a reaction (✅). A number that beats the record gets 🏆 only on the step the server chose (every 100 numbers by default, or never), so it does not pile up. * A wrong number gets ❌ and, by default, the count goes **back to the start**. * **The same person cannot count two numbers in a row**: someone else has to count in between. That message does not break the count. * Messages that are not numbers are chat and are left alone, so people can talk in the channel. > [accordion] Right numbers, and chat in between > > ![mia, nico, kira and shi count 41 to 44, each with a check reaction, and zoe chats in between without a reaction](https://mintcdn.com/wikipetto/8-nRkVLcKSj5D7NX/images/discord/community/counting-right.webp?fit=max\&auto=format\&n=8-nRkVLcKSj5D7NX\&q=85\&s=7206b563306efaef2c6fedfbe7654b00) > > In Discord: each right number gets ✅, and a message that is not a number is left alone. > [accordion] A wrong number > > ![maxwell writes 90 after 88; Petto reacts with a cross and says maxwell messed up at 88, it had to be 89, and the count starts again from 1; chu writes 1](https://mintcdn.com/wikipetto/8-nRkVLcKSj5D7NX/images/discord/community/counting-wrong.webp?fit=max\&auto=format\&n=8-nRkVLcKSj5D7NX\&q=85\&s=b4688dc35c3d61b23d1c6a572e4302b5) > > In Discord: a wrong number gets ❌ and the count starts again from 1. > [accordion] The same person twice > > ![nico writes 213 and then 214; Petto reacts with a cross and says nico cannot count two numbers in a row, the next number is 214](https://mintcdn.com/wikipetto/rok-7yv8v3ZrWquM/images/discord/community/counting-double.webp?fit=max\&auto=format\&n=rok-7yv8v3ZrWquM\&q=85\&s=968fc2a97733c08ecaf52d2b1b2eb188) > > In Discord: the same person cannot count twice in a row, and the count stays where it was. If someone edits or deletes the last number, Petto says what it was, so nobody continues from a number that is not there. ![ivy edits her 315 and Petto answers that ivy edited their number, the last number is 315 and the next one is 316](https://mintcdn.com/wikipetto/8-nRkVLcKSj5D7NX/images/discord/community/counting-edited.webp?fit=max\&auto=format\&n=8-nRkVLcKSj5D7NX\&q=85\&s=dfae7f6cf520a2d489373224ff589c15) In Discord: the last number is edited, and Petto says which one it was. ![Members count 498, 499 and 2\*250 in the counting channel;

Everything for administrators needs **Manage Server**. `next`, `stats`, `leaderboard` and `config` are for everyone. Short name: `!count`. ## Sums With **sums** on (the default) a member can write `2*3+1` and it counts as `7`. It understands `+ - * / ^` and brackets, and only whole numbers: `7/2` is not a number. Petto never runs what is written as code. ![chu writes 99, mia writes (4+6)^2 and it counts as 100, nico writes 7/2 with no reaction, and kira writes 101](https://mintcdn.com/wikipetto/8-nRkVLcKSj5D7NX/images/discord/community/counting-sums.webp?fit=max\&auto=format\&n=8-nRkVLcKSj5D7NX\&q=85\&s=01f5f1cb2a2e9c74279244997b152e7b) In Discord: a sum counts as its result, and 7/2, which is not a whole number, is left alone as chat. ## Saves With saves (`!counting set saves 2`) the server keeps up to that many saves (0 to 5; 0, no saves, by default). A save **forgives one mistake**: the count does not go back. One new save is earned every 100 numbers (`save_every`). ![At 600 Petto says 600 reached and the server earned a save, 1 of 2; maxwell writes 611 and Petto says a save was used and the next number is still 601; ivy writes 601](https://mintcdn.com/wikipetto/8-nRkVLcKSj5D7NX/images/discord/community/counting-saves.webp?fit=max\&auto=format\&n=8-nRkVLcKSj5D7NX\&q=85\&s=0244618658199a4b966a7127198dc4e9) In Discord: a save is earned at 600, and the next mistake uses it instead of starting over. ## Roles and alerts * **Mistake role** (`wrong_role`): given to who gets a number wrong. It lasts the minutes you choose (`wrong_role_time`, 60 by default) or, with 0, until that member's next right number. * **Role of the best counter** (`top_role`): it moves to whoever has the most right numbers, so it changes hands when someone passes the first place. * **Alerts that delete themselves** (`alert_time`): the messages about a mistake (a wrong number, two in a row, an edited or deleted number) are deleted after that many seconds. 30 by default, 0 keeps them. Petto has to be above those roles. `none` removes a role: `!counting set top_role none`. > [accordion] !counting set wrong\_role > > ![liam types !counting set wrong\_role @Miscounted and Petto confirms the role given to who gets a number wrong](https://mintcdn.com/wikipetto/8-nRkVLcKSj5D7NX/images/discord/community/counting-set-wrong-role.webp?fit=max\&auto=format\&n=8-nRkVLcKSj5D7NX\&q=85\&s=7aabb24dc8bdb13a6c8d859333eb3340) > > In Discord: the mistake role. > [accordion] !counting set top\_role > > ![liam types !counting set top\_role @Counting Champ and Petto confirms the role of the best counter](https://mintcdn.com/wikipetto/8-nRkVLcKSj5D7NX/images/discord/community/counting-set-top-role.webp?fit=max\&auto=format\&n=8-nRkVLcKSj5D7NX\&q=85\&s=ea3869db5ce962fa444fcc92d555c8d3) > > In Discord: the role of the best counter. > [accordion] !counting set alert\_time > > ![liam types !counting set alert\_time 30 and Petto confirms 30 seconds until the alerts of a mistake delete themselves](https://mintcdn.com/wikipetto/8-nRkVLcKSj5D7NX/images/discord/community/counting-set-alert-time.webp?fit=max\&auto=format\&n=8-nRkVLcKSj5D7NX\&q=85\&s=b92842afe742d8db9afe8d25aa1b7bdb) > > In Discord: the alerts of a mistake delete themselves after 30 seconds. ## Settings | Setting | What it does | | - | - | | `double` | The same person can count twice in a row (off by default) | | `math` | Sums count as a number | | `reset` | A mistake sends the count back to the start | | `delete` | Wrong numbers are deleted | | `edits` | Say when the last number is edited or deleted | | `ok_emoji`, `bad_emoji`, `record_emoji` | The reactions | | `saves`, `save_every` | The saves and how often one is earned | | `wrong_role`, `wrong_role_time` | The mistake role and how long it lasts | | `top_role` | The role of the best counter | | `alert_time` | Seconds until the alerts delete themselves (0 = never) | | `record_every` | The record reaction is only given on a record that falls on a multiple of this (100 by default, 0 for never) | | `milestone` | A message every this many numbers (0 for none) | | `start` | The number the count starts after (0 means it starts at 1) | All of it can also be changed in the dashboard (**Counting**), which also shows the record, the right numbers and mistakes, and who counts the most. ![The Counting page of Petto Land at 502 with a record of 500, its reactions, saves and roles](https://mintcdn.com/wikipetto/PiFwt6dDUZHBNDT7/images/dashboard/community/counting.webp?fit=max\&auto=format\&n=PiFwt6dDUZHBNDT7\&q=85\&s=92302e1b41502d6792a8e98b3c6d13a4) Dashboard → Community → Counting: the count now, the record, the right numbers and mistakes, and the settings. ![Who counts the most: Chillet with 812 right, 9 mistakes and highest 341, then kira, mia.draws, chu, shi, nico, zoe\_plays and liam](https://mintcdn.com/wikipetto/X8GdsHqKNBomKSYc/images/dashboard/community/counting-dash-top.webp?fit=max\&auto=format\&n=X8GdsHqKNBomKSYc\&q=85\&s=3060fca70cce57ba1cbbbe5756603991) Dashboard → Community → Counting: who counts the most. > [!NOTE] > > This is not the same as the [server counters](https://wiki.petto.sbs/miscellaneous/counters.md), which put numbers such as the member count in the name of a channel.
