By the way, the stupid programme doesn't recognise all of my extra mouse buttons or count the "Cruise Control" o) as scrolling.
So unfair.

Same here. Oh well. Just use the keyboard to navigate, that's how TKC ranks people

Ah, nuts. That means that when I have extended gaming sessions it won't count towards my rank all the times I click the mouse button, screaming "DIE! DIE YOU ****** DIE!" before exploding in a shower of giblets.

It's a testament to the greatness of this programme that I'm actually using the keyboard when the mouse would be easily in order to get my score up.

Now where do I sign up to the rest of these proggies?

Have a look around the forum / post a newbie topic, I must confess I don't actually BOINC myself :eek:

(Going for my 5k Seti tiffy before I get spankified

Whoops! I never noticed I'd stomped someone

. Will be extra careful to issue parps from now on, 'tis bad etiquette to just casually stomp some poor bugger without letting them know of their impending trip down the league. Please accept my sincerest apologies s'ah

Oh well, never mind - I'm sure it'll happen again. Keeps bloody happening to me anyway, now I'm down in 12th

(Sorry if this is posted somewhere obvious and I'm just being blind today).

If you look at the little TKC icon in your bottom right hand windows screen, right click brings up a settings menu, that suggests an hourly option is possible.

I'll forgive you just this once, especially since I had only just put you into 12th place so I could claim 11th.

Just didn't expect to get stomped on within 5 minutes :eek:

Hmm now down to 13th, Looks like all this pimping for extra team players means there's a bit of a shakeout of rankings going on.

I keep getting this error:

Apologies if this has been mentioned earlier in the thread...

I assume that, to prevent potentially overloading the server, the creator(s) of TKC have put some sort of time constraint on how often you can upload statistics, so it's not a problem at your end. Not sure how long this limit is tbh, but I think I've been able to upload stats half an hour after previously uploading some, though I may be wrong on this. I know there's an option to submit stats every hour, but tbh I just set it to manual and then update whenever I feel like it. That way you get to stomp harder

Stop rubbing it in

Hehe, nobody's ever going to catch me

TheDogFather · 31 Oct 2004 at 20:17

I wouldnt bet on it.

Parp to Fillado, MGP and The Tross. I'll give you a hour or so, then your getting it.

My apolagies to the slackers I so rudely stomped without issuing a Parp, I forgot myself in all the excitement.

Theres a new clicker in town.

TDF.

Likewise.

17th place! The crispy one moves onwards and upwards.

Stay tuned for more stompings soon - and that includes you Mr Sprout.

I sincerely hope not, I may have been slacking by not being in front of my computer all day today, but, I still have a small stash to offset you.

Trouble is if I use it I have to Parp TheTross who'll be stomped until the the next dump.

TheTross · 31 Oct 2004 at 21:14

Go on then MGP, parp away. I'll be waiting round the corner for you for a good ol' restomp anyway, but it makes for good, healthy competition

MGP · 31 Oct 2004 at 21:19

I've done my best so lets see you all do your worst. Bring it on
