You can't merge accounts in FAH. Once points go to one username they stay with that username. The same applies for teams.mikeymike said:attach lemonan to lemonman? even if its not getting you huge amounts of points it will still help compensate a bit, like those 12k extra points could have made you one spot higher right now

thats nuts... concord_rules your F@H page says
Active processors (within 7 days) 7
Im still only using 1 PC yeah
Output will be horrendously down this week though since my parents decided to turn my machine off while I was away for the weekend.
Overall still a good week for team 10 and welcome drunken fool

I've tried many time to get at lemonan - but it's always password locked now 
at lease it's owner leaves it on 24/7

Bit of a mid week update for all that are intreated (and the rest of you too 
)
On the production front I'm running about 4 of the good machines 22/7, the server and home rig 24/7 with the rest on 10/5 with is cutting my total output by half
Currently lower still due to the pants WU's (but that affecting all teams so less of an issue)
Borgs are mostly just ticking over but with only 16 of 43 processors active in last 7 days I'll must have lost a few of these too
Upgrading my home rig last night failed miserably, as mobo would not even boot - more testing tonight required. But new case (TJ05) is lovely and quiet and HSF (thermalright xp-120) has droped temps 5 degree at 600 less rpm so It's not all doom and gloom on the farm
Looks like I'm going to be on about 5-7k a week now but I'm changing jobs soon so potentially will have two borged offices

I dumped 1,749 yesterday, got to be a record. Sadly thats not due to higher production, just lots of good wus finishing together.
Just out of interest, any idea how much my opty 175 costs running for an extra 12 hours per day? I don't know what our electricity cost per unit is but what would be a rough figure?

What's your Oc?

Joe42 said:
Basic spec of all parts please. Inc PSU wattage and GPU oc's if any
EDIT: ignore that - basic ball park for 805D at 95w (THW)
Intel Pentium D 805
Tagan i-Xeye 480 W PSU
Asus P5WD2-E Premium
OCZ DDR2-800 (2x 512 MB)
2x Western Digital WD160
GeForce 7800 GTX
Gigabyte DVD-Rom 16x
Idle
[email protected] (stock volts) 175w total system
[email protected] (stock volts) 204w total system
Load
[email protected] (stock volts) 260w total system
[email protected] (stock volts) 360w total system
the 175 is rated at 55w so plus 15% OC and extra watts lets say 70w
as a guess 150w Idle and 225w load per hour.
or 6 kwh per day @ 15p a unit = £0.9 pence/day

Thats not so bad in terms of affordability, but its not going to look nice on the electricity bill combined with the media centre i expect.
Its an S12 btw so more like 78~80% efficiency (not that it makes much difference)
Plus i've got a good argument: We leave a 500w heater on for the pigs all night, so 300w for me is nothing.

appoligies watts were recorded at plug so its more like 225w total. (edited above thread)
And a 80% Psu saves you 3p a day over a 75% one
Edit: It's still a £300 a year habit

What a waste of energy! Eat the little sods and save yourself some money
I'm joking of course. Burn them!

They are getting on a bit, bit tough.
I did once propose that i get a cat, which will eat the pigs, fish and hamster and solve all our pet problems.
Nahh i love them really, they are very sweet if a little stupid.
Its just occured to me that i could kill two birds with one stone and move my fileserver in with the pigs to fold and keep them warm... hmm.
