oh boy another counting thread
just counting but with upgrades that cost progress
when you post in this thread, you can either increment by the amount you're supposed to or buy an upgrade
If you buy an upgrade, you must now say how much the increment is

costs 10+4(times bought^2): add 1 to increment
(ex. 8, 9, 10, someone buys the above upgrade the 1st time, now it goes up from 0 again but by 2 each time and they must mention the new increment size in their post)

costs 100*2^times bought): add 1 to base of 1st upgrade
(ex. first upgrade was bought 5 times already and this upgrade was already bought once so the increment is 11. 168, 179, 190, 201, someone buys this upgrade the 2nd time. 200 is subtracted and the increment is now 16. they also say the increment is now 16)

start at 0
oh and also you can only post once every 3rd post like in counting battle
