    Pokémon Trivia Rules said:
    Numbers [...] don't count as words.
    It's a universal rule of course, Pokémon Trivia is just where I saw this specifically said.
    Would the numbers count as words if I wrote them as, say, 'forty-seven', rather than '47'? I'm asking because I do tend to write numbers in that fashion; it wouldn't be great to make a post I think contains five words to find post-infraction that it counts as three.
     
    I'm almost 100% sure numbers refers to the actual symbols, since if you were to write it all out in letters, by dictionary standards it IS a word.
