Seems like we need a few categories of folders, The true Folding at home guys who are literally folding at home,the IT professionals who are folding at work, and the Coop network where someone gets five people to fold under their Passkey. Hell I spent two hours last night trolling the Legit forums looking for people with a good GPU in thier signature line and sending them PMs to see if they would fold under my passkey and then someone adds 50K in one day. I could get everyone I know on this earth to fold and not get anywhere near that. OMG is all I can say to that! Anyone looking for a good solid PAsskey to fold under shoot me a PM, no need to e-mail stanford for one I have it for ya right here :)

ME too.

I gave my self an Oh crap moment yesterday. I pushed my i7 just a little too far and it wouldn't boot after a sudden crash. Fortunately, the motherboard has a clear cmos button on it. After pushing that a few times, it finally rebooted all the way into windows.

WOW, nice work spitter.

Your output increase for yesterday took our whole team output over 500,000ppd. I think that's the first time that's ever happened!

It couldn't have happened without everyone chipping in, so congrats everyone! :drinkers:

Well now it's obvious who the winner is...now it's just a matter of seeing how many points we can output for LR!

Anyone know where Spitter lives and can cut his power? :lol:

I'm an IT guy, not using any work hardware. I'm folding on personal hardware, but have them in my office at work. No dent in the old electric bill :finga: Its winter and I live in a tin box so the ol' electric bill is going to be high enough, especially if it stays in the 20's for the bulk of the winter like last year.

yeah spitter is on pace for 100k+ himself today.. basically going to out produce 2 teams by himself today. so much for a "competition" time to do another shuffle Dan - team H= spitter... sorry team F but your basically just along for the ride at this point. :finga: he will still win his cpu and that will put more randoms in the hat (if thats how the remaining are going out..)

I am kidding by the way about re arranging teams again. but I can say it really demotivates me to leave 6 PC at home running 24/7 with nothing to shoot for.

typically how it works is people come fold for a few weeks then quickly fall off the face of the earth after the contest. but yeah it does help get a big jump for about a month - and thats good.

I think Eden999 needs switched out. He hasn't folded for quite some time now.

does it really matter? and on that note- Dan - i think there is a problem for team G on the spread sheet. the average totals are increasing when their points per day increase- should the average be a static number that is set once from the time the were put on the team and what they had folded at that point?

WOW, what the heck is Spitter hooked up to. He must have one of those future Quantum Computers.

Eden999 is folding on an atom, so is going to only output points like once a week.

@Team G averages, yeah I intentionally did it like that so it'd be a true reflection of their output, but I can see how if they add a lot more machines later on it'll skew the points, so I've locked the average from the monday they were added.
