not like any of our ppd's have multiplied 10 fold, can't really come close to keeping up with that even if we are all folding max capacity(which i cannot until maybe i RMA my dead GSO)
Recruit people? All but one of the previous folders I recruited are too lazy to run it. As for trying to recruit new people.....they're lazy.

Hey its all in good fun and as much as I would like to gripe and complian the CPU's would not even be on the line if not for the efforts of the great folks here at legit reviews. Personally I think there is something un chivalric about adding 80+ K in one day but the powers that be said no rules so thats what we have. I would just like to have the winning team award contingent upon Spitter telling us how he managed to go from a predicked PPD of around 8K to 100K+ in seven days. A true knight would not sit back and pick off swordsman with a bow at 100 yards.

But then again I guess the knights are the ones who made that rule because they just didn't want to get shot and they knew their apponents didn't have swords.

Nice recruiting then Spitter!! I have tried to recruit myself but alas my efforts have not paid fruit like yours. Congrats man and thanks for answering my curiosity. Maybe your friend will continue to fold for team LR in the future??

I guess spitter has saved me from the rath of the folding members. I talked to an online "friend" of mine and he told me he would help our team if we fell behind...and only if we fell behind. I thought he was geing a cocky so I looked up his stats...my jaw hit the floor when I saw he was in the 200k-300k PPD ranks. And I have no idea where or how he gets the points...but he does.

It's great to see the friendly competitive spirit here. :P

I've noticed the LR stating at 82 now. Two years ago, I would have never thought it would have been possible to even break 100 let alone ride high in the low 80s. As efforts are applied LR would be a future contender in the 50s.

Way to go everyone. Keep folding on!

Recruiting him wasn't hard at all. He gets the processor whether he folds or not.
