The 100 game was created by the Reverend Charles Lutwidge Dodgson -- who you may know for writing Alice In Wonderland under the pen name Lewis Carroll.
Carroll’s Oxford students were amazed. On February 5, 1856 he wrote in his diary: “... the trick of counting alternately up to 100, neither putting on more than 10 to the last number named, astonished them not a little.”

There is already a game like this called 21 and I thought everyone knew about it. Whoever says "21" loses and you count by 1, 2 or 3. The trick is to go 2nd and play every 4th number (4, 8, 12, 16, 20,) so that your opponent says 21 and loses. Edit: as long as you can count, you can rid of anyone's suspicions by changing the evil number. If it was 22, you'd go first and say 1 If it was 23 you'd go first and say 2

@@s_k1303 It's some elimination game played with a group, if you say 21 you lose. Whoever doesn't say 21 wins. You always have to count up either in 1,2 or 3s. What's funny is you could just say 3 in a row and then the 7th person just says 19 and 20 and the 8th person is eliminated.

In a vehicle filled with strangers, people challenged me this game and I always lose, I was so frustrated that 9 years later, I had enough math knowledge to actually solve the way to always win by myself, which was this way, I was so proud. That's all my comment is, just wanted to share one of my only successful of something.

I saw this video last night and I studied the number game to win in every situation except the one that your opponent starts with 1 and knows the series. When I went to school I challenged my math teacher to play this game to end a bet we had. It turns out he figured out the pattern already while I was explaining the game to him. I lost but I also won every other match I had with the teachers and my friends leaving them confused on how I won every single time. I also figured out the mathmetical explanation it's a pattern which is 11n+1 (you get rid of the 1 first and then add 11 in total each time to reach 89 which is n=8 11x8+1=88+1=89) Well thank you for reading this long ass comment and don't forget to like the video and support this awesome channel 👍

You can do this with tic tax toe, if you always go first. First, you go in the middle. Then, if they go into a corner space, you pick one which is one corner space away. For example, if they go top left, you can go bottom left or top right, and if they pick top right, you can go top left or bottom right. Then, they are forced to block you, since otherwise you can just win with the diagonal. Once they do this,you can just go 4 spaces clockwise from their original move, and you have 2 possible winning spaces, which they can only block one of. However, if they first go into a side middle space, you can go 2 spaces clockwise or counterclockwise and force the enemy to block your sideways winning condition. Then, you just go one below your previous move, and have 2 winning conditions.

there are also variants where person who starts as a second player can win (in number game), for example: 3 - max numbers you can pick, 20 - last legal number games itself also becomes more interesting when more than 2 players are playing (person who is forced to go above 20 (or just next person after someone who played 20) loses) :]

The max a person can say is 10. To make each round consistent, calculate the number of numbers to count. 10+1=11, 11 per round. To get 100 you need them to say 99. 99%11=1 Say 1, then count up at the complement of 11. *Thus, each "round" the numbers add up to 11.* This formula works with any numbers. I remember this because I calculated it on my own, and trolled everyone in class. *This is what 8th graders with no friends do in free time.*
