It seems a whole lot of people, including me, came on board really late. I for one recieved and e-mail from legit reviews admin telling me about this yesterday. Not sure why I recieved notice of the thread stating the contest begins today but not one announcing the contest that was posted on Nov. 2nd. Long story short...I would like to know if I am in the contest or not and I am sure many more would like to know as well. I am in no way saying that I think I should be just that I would like to know. You guys rock and I will fold some not matter what...I should have started a long time ago.

I got a second computer going for my team, it has a Phenom X4 9850 and a GeForce 9600 GT in it. I don't know if that's any good but it will help.

Uhmmmm...question. I have the SMP thingy running on a quad core Q6600......Fahmon says I am getting 450 PPD out of it. I'm used to the GPU client and 450 PPD sounds like a waste to me. Did I do something wrong or is that about what I should be getting? I fit is right then so be it...but I was hoping for a little more.

It is probably using the classic cores--this is what happened to me too.

Tomorrow I will set up my secondary computer and hope the wife doesn't mind. I will use the excuse that we need a second space heater for the living room.

Was gonna ask the same thing :) Is it a manual thing or will it auto fill the boxes in?

So...

If you are already listed on a team in the original post don't worry I'll re-arrange you on a new team... I've gone through the 7 pages of this thread and found what I think are 22 new people that want to join the 24 people that are already folding.

Sovereign
sbohdan - 10400ppd
Wifuzzy - 13000ppd
bhelms - 5000ppd
smack323 - 3500ppd
eden999
craigmcl - 7000ppd
FeRaL
InspectahACE - 15000ppd
TraceHagan - 9500ppd
petteyg359 - 7750ppd
Xancros (folding under the-rig) - 500ppd
dewmugg - 1700ppd
SamuraiJack - 2400ppd
forsaken (folding under forsaken-ps3) - 650ppd
pmanipole (folding under dukeman) - 500ppd
Billabong_69 (folding under Billabong_69)
ratNukit - 4100ppd
alister (folding under dtanderson) - 450ppd
taichi135 - 500ppd
Dragon_Cooler
Merlin - 4000ppd
kylepaddock - 2000

I have five people out of the 22 people not showing up as actively folding. This means that if you are folding you didn't enter the team number correctly or are folding under a name different than the forum name.

Sovereign
eden999
FeRaL (folding under FeRaL, but not active)
Dragon_Cooler (folding under Dragon_Cooler, but not active)
Billabong_69 (folding under Billabong_69)

Please let me know if I missed anyone and if you are one of the seven people above please let me know the name you are folding under so I can make the new teams. Right now it looks like we will be having 7 teams.

13,000 PPD is not what I will probably get as an average. I dought I will leave all my computers on 24/7 till Dec 22....I think 11,000 or 12,000 would be a little more accurate. no biggie one way or the other though.

Just a small technical correction, the username i am folding under is "Forsaken's_PS3" not "Forsaken_PS3" but you found me anyway, so it's all good, just wanted to be as accurate as possible :-)

EOC seems to be not recording my stats since I switched the team number to 38296. I am showing points on http://fah-web.stanford.edu/cgi-bin/mai ... e=teampage, though.
