For 1-10 I used my fingers; from 11-100 was a bigger challenge entirely. Thanks to my not insubstantial brain power, I was able to complete the task.

I dunno like if you used m&ms or somethin physical are you sure whatever you used was real? Cause that could throw a lot of poo poo off.

I mean have you heard of phantom limbs? Its like where you think you have a limb but you don't. You can still feel it there!

What if you have phantom fingers?

Do numbers really exist or are they just a way to trick your brain into a child like understanding of one of the almost infinite complexities of the universe?

Im still finding this to be a dubious claim. What's next? You're going to tell us that there is a negative 1-100?
Lets just stick to what we know is true, the good ol' American 1-10.

i am trying to create new methods of counting to accomadate this info. i have found if i face my hand upsidedown (with the fingers facing down), i can count an additional five of both hands. but that still only gets me to twenty. i am going to experiment with various orientations o fthe hand.
