And I posted that per IB, within the same forum, there cannot be some threads where some posts count and others don't. The software is not able to handle such distinctions at this point in time.

Furthermore, kokonutz refers (I believe) to the counting "game" threads in Omni.

Were one to start playing such games within a lounge thread outside of Omni, such posts would count. However, whether one is permitted to play such games in lounge threads is not the purview of TalkBoard, rather it is that of the moderator(s )of the forum(s) in question.
