What makes Till the target to beat?

 

[Till]

While delighted to discover a new statistics page, I am disappointed that I am still not beating Till. One day that German will get his comeuppance from me!

More fancy talk from the Scotsman!
Your calculator pony may be younger, but my old warhorse makes more than up with sheer endurance. This time you won't foil my plans!

 

[Blazer6]

At least you all have competition to look forward to, I have one inactive folder barely ahead of me and Taper is catching up.

Oh just you wait..I don't care how many units I have to got through, I will beat you! For the world!

What makes Till the target to beat?

It's a medium-length story, but he's basically an evil overlord who posts MP3 quiz questions, and I'm fairly certain he wants to take over the world. Or at least make his little Germanic province the leader in German affairs. Either way, I'm watching him.

That's right I am! I had some major network issues that I only got fixed a few weeks ago, so I was down for awhile, but now I'm back better than ever. Of course, you're welcome to join my team, together we should be able to catch Sahkunder and lost civantares fairly quickly.

Our company is right now adding some new computers which I am going to have fold for our team, so if you plan to catch me you better bring some big firepower...


BTW, anyone who has a ATI 16xx, 18xx, or 19xx series video card (PCI or AGP) can now use it with the new GPU folding client to get some major work done on special types of proteins that CPUs don't do so well folding.

True, Germans that post MP3 quiz questions are very suspect indeed.. why are they posting questions? How did they obtain MP3 technologies? What is their obsession with quizzes all about, a cunning maneuver to lure Scotland away from the Scots?

And by the way, congrats to HP&H (a couple days late) for breaking the hundred-grand mark!

What the ... ? I've slipped to number 51, with last work unit in October? I shall check that no-one has deleted the programme as soon as I get home for Christmas!

someone probably turned the computer off - perhaps the same person who pays the electricity bill

Anyway on a team front the old rivals of Daily Kos and Arch linux are back on our target list, and watch the spectacle of MySaoirse blase past us at speeds we could only imagine (43000 points per DAY)

 

[El_Machinae]

Do you two know each other?

 

[Furiey]

If he'd come to the UK CFC meet they would have met...

My folding problems disappeared when I reinstalled Civ 4 so I've been getting more folding done the last few weeks.

 

[lost_civantares]

I've suffered the loss of a bunch of computers that were folding for me, so all I have right now is 1 semi-fast computer, and 2 slow ones.

 

[Furiey]

I've just noticed that our folding home page (here) lists the old thread not this one. Can anyone change it or just Abaddon?

 

[lost_civantares]

Yeah, we prodded him about it before and he didn't get around to it IIRC.

 

[Abaddon]

I accept that prod.. and will look into now

 

[Abaddon]

All sorted.. even re-downloading the program on this home computer so it can be folding away in my name for me

It stuck at 86% for three weeks, then I just checked again now and I'm 6% into a new unit!

Sorry about my lack of promised protein-structure spam ... I shall see if I can write some later on.

Edit: Extreme Overclocking says I'm the 14th overall contributor to the team? And team rank of 41? And Folding@Home had 51? Oh, I give up trying to understand these things ...

 

[ironduck]

The Extreme Overclocking 14th ranking must be in the last 24 hours, I'm not even listed in that even though I'm still folding (back again from a trip)..

 

[Abaddon]

ive not done anything on months due to the program failing while i was at uni,, and now ive been given a 20,000 pointer so il be folding for AGES until it registers!

 

[ironduck]

Time to overclock that mother!
