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


Looks like dunc, aka The_Alabama_Slamma, has this week well and truly nailed - I wonder what BTI, aka The_Ohio_Psycho, has in store for next week
Sorry anyone who's not been mentioned - you know what to do now

hmmm I've only just noticed something quite odd....

I switched my best rig over to Bigstan's account for the week and sent about 1500 points his way as a prize for the naming competition and I've ended up 300 points better off this week than last week even though I was 1 machine down

I did have an 1100 pointer on one machine that took the best part of two weeks so maybe that did it - otherwise someone was folding for me
so thanks mystery donater.... or just thanks to the foldy gods for thy blessing

I'm a newb to this folding stuff

welcome to the team


just to clear it up the dumping figures show how many points were gained during the last week - I list everyone who managed over 1000 points in the last week

the top stompers is everyone who gained 2 or more places in the last week


since you're new to the team you should see yourself on the top stompers list for quite some time as you wade through the slackers

Alright folks, I was thinking back to when I first started rolling around the idea of writing an updated FAH guide. I recall that there was also some discussion about creating a general distributed computing introduction for inclusion at the beginning of the individual guides or as a sticky in and of itself. Do we still think this is a good idea? Anybody care to volunteer their services in partnership with my own?

Berserker did an excellent info/pimpage thread a while back - linky

dunno if that's any use to you or not

watch out folks - someone let a crazyman loose in the PandeLab and there's now a beta WU by the name of

p2108_dk_villin_ddsa_aybabtu_run0

the significance of which i did not notice at first, until i googled and it all came flooding back


on a more serious note it looks like the QMDs are gonna be out for at least another month
