Some time ago when SMP folding was king, long before GPU folding, I got to cell 5 and there was no way I was going to catch the four ahead of me. It seemed a bit pointless and boring to carry on with the same ID so I started a new one to see how fast I could rise up through the cells. It was the first ID to stomp over 1000 in the first week so it has something to its name. I'd borged a school so I let that carry on as the original snapsh0t while I concentrated on snapsh0t_too. It's true to say that I would not have over 8M points if I hadn't created snapsh0t_too, I'd just have given up.
This summer I received a rather unpleasant leccy bill so decided to wind down snapsh0t_too. I was lucky enough to see a path to getting 3,333,333 points so that was where I stopped.
Looking at snapsh0t, a couple of weeks ago I saw an opportunity to try out my new GTX260 (and 9800GTX+) to get to 5M plus a couple of stomps. I'd also had a new leccy bill with some credit on it. I'll probably wind down supporting snapsh0t after the two stomps but I'm about to build a new system that should support -bigadv so who knows where those points will go.....
Oh, and the snapshot ID is nothing to do with me. It was already there before I started folding.
