A great big warm welcome to the team!

If you haven't done so already then why not check out the Folding@Home Setup Guide and the Quickie Guide for more foldy-tastic tips especially for when you're in a rush


Yet another week of increased production - even the PS3 teams are having trouble keeping up
Sorry anyone who's not been mentioned - you know what to do now

Good stuff thanks.

Mine would have been 3000+ higher this week but I was away for the last 2 days and when I got home tonight found we had had a power cut yesterday and my PC was off and the burglar alarm was beeping

Oh well there is always next week

My output could have been higher too - my GF's machine spent most of the week working on a 1000+ point WU which about 60% into it had an "unknown error" and it just junked it

If I get another of those it's getting moved onto my main machine and I'll try powering through it

Another dead week from me

I'll be back online by next week


Ta Rich

Wow, looks like I still have an active borg somewhere! God knows where that is

I should be dumping my first WinSMP WU in an hour or two so yay for me!

Until i can get Ubuntu to work with my LAN ports I am stuck with WinSMP. God that client is a piece of crap it really is lol

Up 60k which is good. Gaining on those ahead and getting away from the teams chasing us. Nice output Stan. Ridiculous single machine score Unforgiven. Nice PS3 crunching Windle and TJC. Bigstan2 stomped 635 this week, which must be an all time record. Lots of nice tiffies. And welcome to 10 of the new people

Damn fine week

Good week team - getting close to that magical 1,000,000 a week mark.

I got my name on every list this week \o/: 1st and 28th in the top dumpers list, 5th in the single crunchers league (could've been 1st if I hadn't cocked up the username on the second client ), 1st in the stompers list, another tiffy and a mention as a "new" member

All rigs now folding under Bigstan so will be interesting to see total output for next week (assuming no catastrophes) - total for Bigstan and Bigstan2 this week was 88,607. Getting tantalisingly close to the 100,000 mark. Maybe when I go away and am not using any of the rigs (been gaming a bit on the quad rig this week), I might get close. I'm going to try the spare X1900XT in the second GPU rig as it's currently running at stock due to problems with the oc last week - if I get the same output from that I get from the other one, that's nearly 400 ppd extra. When I'm away, I'll be running 2 clients on the quad, giving me an extra 600ppd (3,300 as opposed to 2,700) and I won't be gaming on it. If I get good WUs, I might not be far away.

Thanks as always to Rich for the news and a warm Foldy type welcome to the new Folders.

Fold on team 10

Stan

Thanks for the news.

I'm still running just 18/7 but another week should be 24/7 when the W/C is finished.

Seem to be getting some better WUs now too, 1168 and 1170 at the moment.

bah 3rd... I will get higher

Stelly

Thanks for the news Rich.

Decent week for me thanks to the work borgs picking up some nice WUs. Output from them has virtually doubled.
The VMWare+Ubuntu+Linux SMP combo on my main PC is ticking along nicely in the background with an almost constant supply of 1760 pointers and I barely know it's there.
Even gave the Win SMP client a try this week but gave up after losing 2 WU's at 50-60% complete.
Oh, and a shiny new 200k tiffy to finish off the week.

Excellent news once again Mr Millions.

Looks like I'm not going to get a top 10 dumpers spot based on current borgage. Going to be a while before I can get any more stomps too - with a risk of being stomped. Life can get so tedious.

Thanks Rich!

Bad news: term time means home PC is at the mercy of parents who haven't grasped the concept of 24/7 computing but are pretty familiar with the electric bill Also back to standard clients, as the SMP isn't anywhere near reliable enough to be left unattended and it'd miss the deadlines anyway.

Good news:

the points are begining to pile up, although I never realised that it could take so long to complete one wu - I wonder if that is what puts others off from folding... Ive been trying to recruit, but none have joined up

hmm, I must remember not to post to get near 100 hehe coz I dont wanna male gangster avatar

/me goes back to lurking

What are you running?

My 3500+ can knock out 1500 points a week when its working ok, you're only making around 600 it seems :/

...odd how a 186 pointer can take just a day, then four days, then just a single day again

Bigstan, I think that C word is banned ninja edit time!

Really? A **** Up is a perfectly reasonable phrase which finds its origins in archery. Basically the **** feather should be down... or something. If it it on the top your arrow will go wonky in flight, ie not as planned. A **** up.

Pretty sucky week all around for me. Had three crunchers die at various points for various reasons - culminating in getting home today to find a very quiet living room (the PC in there had run out of space on it's PVR disk and decided the best action was to switch off).

Well my outputs risen but is still short of optimum, dumped another 6000 points shortly after you published the stats.

Cheers for the stats Rich.
