    You post today’s count. Then somebody posts today’s count when tomorrow is today.

    I’ll start. 18.

    Why should I post today’s count if you already did?

    Sefira game is an oxymoron. Sefira is not a time for games.

    By “Sefira Game” I thought you meant the following.

    For some reason still being able to count with a beracha is a badge of honor in the frum velt.

    We judge ourselves and others based on whether we successfully made it through to shavuous still saying the betrachah.

    HIR: Sefira is a time of happiness. And a separate sadness.

    So tonight will be 21.

    How do you remember to count on Friday nights? Personally, I try not to make early Shabbos, but I’ve heard people wear their wristwatch on the wrong hand as a reminder.

    What other ideas have you heard?

    Once they’re carrying, why not just use an email reminder?

    They’re using Apple or Android watches with the Shabbos App on it.

    Pba,

    Contrary to popular belief most of the Jewish velt lives within an eruv

    Some Eruvin are about as kosher as the Shabbos App.

    Coffee,

    Not sure what you think popular belief is and what is true. I think popular belief is that all frum people live in brooklyn, and that you can’t use the brooklyn eruv.

    Do you agree with my popular belief? If so, do you think they don’t live in brooklyn or that the brooklyn eruv is ok? And if B, do you think THEY use the brooklyn eruv, or that they should.

    Also, you could put the watch on as soon as you get home from shul.

    Right, and I said CONTRARY to popular belief, they don’t.

    I don’t think that the Eruv should be used btw

    Please explain something to me. What’s the problem with trying to remember to count sefira on Friday night? How do you remember to say shema on Friday night?

    I say all three parshiyos before going to sleep, so even if I forget that I davened Maariv early, I’m yotzei krias Shema, but not sefira.

    PbA, it sounds like you are a frequent LA to Australia traveller, so you have lots of sfeikos d’yoma, according to one psak.

    I have to count without a brachah, though, because the other day someone told me it was 13.
