Because I'm special :p

Probably marked me for removal from the single machine list. I finally got my parents' xp 2500+ (at 3200) folding. Should give 100-120 ppd consistently.

Vote Rich for president!

Rich, why is Joey's name in bold in the wee list of single machine crunchers at the bottom?

EDIT: Rich, did you see you got a few mentions in GD's "Pick the next underboss" thread? I though you might like to know.
he's in bold to remind me to remove him for next week's news as he's borged another machine

yes I did have a look through the UB post last night - was really chuffed that so many of you put my name forward :cool:
I have given it a lot of thought and am actually very interested though it doesn't seem to have been made clear if it's to be a general UB position(s) or specifically to keep GD in order - at least in the first 18 pages I read last night it was being kept as vague as possible
I think many others here in DC would also be ideal for the job - probably the reason we very rarely need any kind of moderating here :)

Now what can that mean...
that means there's still a whole load of production available on school machines which are still resting for summer - it's gonna be great!!! :cool:

Aw man, can't wait to see that. Ring's a bell, I think you talked about it a while back when some guy was gonna borg his school. What are the machines, and how many? What's their production? Or are these details under wraps until they get their own "my farm" thread?

well looking back to old news posts...


29th June:

1 . LigerZero - 34,193
2 . DarkendViper - 12,401
3 . Ricko - 10,057

I'm actually not sure what happened to Ricko :o
Ligerzero (Whitestar) and DarkendViper should both be bringing quite some production back with them though I think :)
Infact Whitestar does seem to have got quite some power already at his fingertips - maybe just dusting off the servers in advance of the kiddies coming back

Don't they get archived?
They get archived when Mr. Berserker feels like archiving them. Not long ago the forums ran on a much older server that had much less disk space. Because storage was limited the dons would periodically prune old threads. Since the switch to the new server the need to prune has been significantly reduced.

Of course! Look at old news posts. Heh, this is great, I can see the week I started folding (24th March). Don't they get archived?
Mister B chucks them into the archive once they get old enough - a few have been missed but I have the raw text for every single news post from when I started on my PC :eek: :D

Good news everyone!

I have just borged my brothers PC! It is a 3700+ @ stock [for now] and will be running for most evenings and most of the weekends. So rich, you better take me off the Single Crunchers list :)

Won't be a fantastic PPD because of the limited crunching time but every little helps!

Great to see we're on the up again.
Still out of the game here, few things haven't gone to plan but i'm going to be making a comeback pretty soon. Sometime next week methinks...

In the mean time, stomped aceface57 and i'd like to issue a parp to Rincin.

Been very busy with various things recently so haven't been around as much as i'd like to have been.

Glad to see production on the rise, good work Rich with the news. (is there a typo next to team lithuania or is it really 7517 days?)

Nice week all round then, happy to see me in all 4 lists. Although anoying as i know i lost half a days production and with that i might just have edged to the top of the single core crunchers. Also made it into the top 200 and onto the 2nd page. :)
