------------------------------
Hi all, everthing *touch wood* seems to be working fine this week. The increase is out as there was a slightly longer week last week but that should be fine by next week.

 

[MGP]

Yay Foldy News Can't get used to it's regularity

And I have an 80million tiffy to admire

 

[dekez]

I know, it seems people have forgot it's here!

Congrats on a fine looking tiffy

 

[BaBa]

Thanks for the news D

Looks like me and Biffa are running the same 4P intel rig but he has 1600 memory Im on 1333.

 

[Jumper118]

i had no internet for 3 days. i'm back up and running now though.

 

[andy_mk3]

Got my 7m tiffy but that's the end of the fold for me for a while, now have working central heating and can't really justify the cost of running my own flat out any more

Congrats on the Tiffy, hope to see you back at some point

Well I'm offline again while abroad.

One thing though guys I'm running on windows 8.1 and there seems to be a problem when my desktop changes depending on the background display settings I'm using. I mean like switching out of aero seems to prevent me from accessing folding.
I have my desktop image change like every 30 mins and there seems to be a link between this and folding interface going belly up. I right click on the toolbar to open the control window and nothing happens I can't pause folding or turn it off without having to go into task manager.
Its really making me mad and I've tried to uninstall and reinstall but it seems to be totally random. I've got to the point where Folding just seems like too much hassle.

 

[Biffa]

Prolly

I need to sell the other one, its just gathering dust right now as I don't have enough power to turn it on.

 

[Rizo-UK]

Plodding along nicely for my Server

 

[PDW]

Hi,

I just wanted to check that it is okay to Fold for your team even if I haven’t bought anything from you ?
It would seem, after a cursory glance, that you are the highest UK team in the stats and thought I could jump on your bandwagon


Having read some of the information available it looks like some of the links in the Essential Guides section are redundant or out of date.

I tried the ‘Fancy image sigs’ link (http://fahstat.piggott.me.uk/) to see how to do that and it can’t find the page.
However there is a message at https://www.piggott.me.uk/2013/09/01/farewell-fahstat/ that says it was ‘retired’ on 1st Sep 2013.
It is now to be found here http://web.archive.org/web/20120623020014/http://fahstat.piggott.me.uk/

The ‘OcUK SMP Guide’ at http://www.sir-les-mp.f2s.com/ says it is under construction !

Also the first 3 Stanford links in the list all go to their home page.
The link for their Server Status page is correct.

 

[Ripshod]

Welcome to the OCUK Forums PDW. Yes, you would be very welcome on the team, I'm sure there will be a lot more welcomes to come.

I agree that thread could do with an update, but with the nature of the site and how busy these forums get I'm sure that whoever was going to do it is constantly distracted in the hardware subforums

 

[PDW]

Thanks for the welcome

I'm sure they have much better things to do but just thought I'd mention it rather than say nothing.

Two WU's done a third in a couple of hours, ripping through them
Those guys at the top better watch out

 

[BaBa]

Hi and much welcome

Things are a little quiet round here at the moment lots of people are mining but if you have any questions or need help don't be afraid to ask

 

[dekez]

Welcome to the team .

Those links do need updating, they're on my to do list along with the sticky guide, but I've not actually folded myself for over a year now and I'm not up to speed on what is happening in terms of clients etc.

I was going to wait until I started folding again and as I learn what's what, update them. It might be a while though.... If anyone has some free time and wants to update anything just send it through to me and I'll replace what's there. I'll remove the broken links from the news generator as well.
