OcUK Folding@Home Combined Folding Event Type Jobby!

What?
Starting at 0000 on the 18th of December, as many Team 10 users as possible will switch some, many or all of their clients to Stomp_Monster for a period of 14 days.

Why?
To see if we can get a single user up to 1 Million PPD. And for a laugh!

No really, why?
As above. Not only will it hopefully be a bit of fun, it brings the team together in a joint venture. I will also be personally donating £2 to charity for each 1 Million points Stomp_Monster crunches in those 14 days. I have preliminarily chosen the Pande Group.

I am not expecting anyone else to donate, this is just my way of making the event a worthy pusuit! :)

Rules?
No rules at all.

Simply switch over as many clients as you wish to Stomp_Monster on the 18th of December. You may fold for the full 14 days or just part of that time. This event is open to everyone.

I have decided to count all the points Stompy has earned for my donation to the Pande Group. For the sake of a couple of quid it's not worth trying to work out how many points Stompy started with on the 18th! I will use the total points as reported by EOC on the 5th January at 2100. This means any points dumped in Stompy's name after the end of the event wont be wasted.

There is a distinct possibility some of us may get a WU in Stompy's name very close to the end of the event, or even the day after if you aren't paying attention. May I suggest setting all your clients to use -oneunit on the 1st Janurary to avoid this. Please, please do not delete any WUs if this happens. It is bad for the science! Your points will still be counted if they are dumped by the 5th Jan deadline.

Looks like everyone is after your blood Biffa with Proposal 2! :p

Still have a few days to go, but looking good so far for participation. I think this will be fun. Will be an epic PPD too! :D
 
The original goal was to push Biffa off the top spot for PPD and was going to be between dekez, T and myself. However I expanded it since other people showed an interest.

I am totally up for a full-team combination including the Biffanator to make one seriously epic PPD for our new username. To make it interesting [and worthwhile] I am happy to donate £1 for every 1 million points we crunch to charity.

I have created the new username for this undertaking:

Stomp_Monster

:D

I will post the passkey shortly - email hasn't arrived yet from Stanford. I will switch over one of my clients tomorrow to Stomp_Monster to build up the bonus. Anyone else who wants to supply a few WUs is also welcome to.
 
OK guys, looking at the stats Stomp_Monster has done 27 WUs! :eek:

I think it is safe to assume we have the bonus activated. I will be going back to my usual username after this latest WU.

We can leave the Monster until the 18th! :)
 
Nice Biffa.

Guys, people are still folding on Stompy. There is no need until the 18th. Wasted effort until then as none of the points will count.

Though if aren't bothered about your own username, keep on folding for Stompy lol.
