Well I went ahead and got my 3450 gpu folding so hopefully I can get about 800-1000ppd out of it and Thursday I should have a new mobo and 8800gt to get my e66 up and running again for another 4000ish ppd.

Stats are updated in my sheet. I'm working on getting even more functionality from input I've gotten thus far (thanks DaIceMan). I should have it up tonight. :drinkers:

it took me a second to figure out that spreadsheet. in the US we read dates in the format 07-16-08 - but its wasnt to hard to figure that one out!!!

here an idea for a another future folding contest. have maybe 4 or 3 or 2 team captains then the rest of the people who want to fold get put into a pool of players.. the captains then pick teamates just like old school playground team picking.

Yeah, but one team would be beating the crap out of the other, that's why I made it so the PPD is even. Problem with us, is that the team is so small.

yeah, but if it was all active folders, instead of people that signed up, the teams would be entirely different with 48 prospects instead of less than 20

well i was just saying if you had all active participants and the capt's took turns picking people for their team.. then it would be the capts fault if your team got destroyed.. maybe with under 20 people participating keep the total number of teams to 2 or 3.

Doesn't work out, some people are able to add more rigs more readily than other people. I've pretty happy with how close the PPD has remained for this.

And I'm secretly upset that we haven't crushed you yet. :mrgreen:

I think smack has just tipped the scales in daily production in your favour, especially as bwall lost a 9600GT.

And it looks like darkstar hasn't even finished building rigs yet :roll:

To heck with that! Team Dan is outmanned almost 3 to 1, and we're holding our own and some of theirs. As I like to say... "Don't just sing it, BRING IT!" :finga:

crappy day for me.. my whole house went offline today for about 10 hrs.. we had a power outage and i didnt get home til late. my main rig was knocked out - i tried to do a repair install of XP and it is in some endless loop.. it tells me to to pick a user now when start up(it never did that before) then gives me an error msg saying that windows cannot validate my copy of XP and i need to register it with microsoft... so i hit ok and it tells me i am already registered and kicks me back to the boot screen to start the whole thing all over again. looks like i am going to need to do a fresh install of XP. I am not a happy camper tonight!!! :vom:

So it's bad in the whole LR team scheme of things, but it means we can keep the lead a little bit longer, and so I can't help but smile a little at your misfortune :axe:
