I've kept my (1GHz Laptop) runing 24 hours a day since I signed up, minus, at most, 3 hours. I'm still far far far behind, and not catching up either!

aw crap, someone else just passed me up. They have 5 processors going though, so it's not like I stood a chance anyway.
While I am bumping this thread, allow me to extend the invitation to every other jatraquero who hasn't joined us. Please, visit the site Bernard linked to at the top of this thread and join a good cause. (I want to emphasize this invitation to people who have less then 5 processors. )

It would be 6 under ludosti's name, but my laptop got really unstable (and it came due for it's regular tinkering).
I just wish I could get my hands on my company's computers for this. (drools at the thought of all the thousands of computers that should be used for gaming and such).

And I'm still revelling in the fact that it takes five computers to beat my two and sometimes (soon always) three CPUs.

Eh, i'm sure that she would have passed your w/o my two computers here at home (a 1Ghz tbird and 950 duron). it wouldn't have been as fast, but it would have happened eventually.

As much as i'd like to admit that i do think this early in the morning (i'm getting ready for work), i know that she would have passed you (i counted the WU's that my 2 boxes have cranked out, and she would have just passed you this week).

The scoring isn't based off of pure # of WU's, as Leto can attest to. They also base it on how long it takes you to process the WU among other such factors about the WU you worked on.

I've already got an XP 2000+ in the competition along with an AMD Duron 800. Go ahead though, bring on the pain Bernard. Posts: 738 | Registered: Jul 2002

1. Would it be possible to give our team the Hatrack banner as a logo? I imagine that whoever started the team would have to upload the graphic (and get permission from our gracious hosts).
2. Has anyone else noticed that we keep steadily moving up in the team rankings? We were in the 200s a while back, and we are at 152 now. If this keeps up (read: if more people install Folding@home!) we may make the top 100 in a few more months.

i've thought about putting the logo up, but the problem is, the thing you see up top...consists of two parts, not one, which makes it hard, i can either get the picture (i'd just put a direct link to it, in which bypasses any laws that I know of, because we're not copying the art and putting it up somewhere else)
another problem is i can't seem to figure out my password... Satyagraha

On the image side, the banner on the Hatrack home page is one piece (excepting the links, of course) and could be added with a simple link - if our hosts will permit a direct link to an image on the site.

I wish more people would get involved in this - not only is is fun (watching the scores is fun), but you actually are accomplishing something useful. Besides - I want to see someone try to catch me and my 5 lovelies. Posts: 5879 | Registered: Apr 2001

DeepThought is almost fully operational mwahahaha while underclocked for three days, he did six work units in a total of about 20 hours of up time, now that he is running at normal speed you shall fear him, especially because he shall be connected to a t1 line for 5 hours a day, I may put him through his paces and overclock, you must fear him

Um, what does having him connected to a T1 have to do w/folding at home? You'd only need it to download and transmit the data from your computer.

i'll be on all the time, while at home, it has to wait for me to dial up before it can send all the info, as well as the longer up-time, DeepThought strikes fear into you, that he does. Satyagraha

Did you guys see the tiny article in Discover this month about the progress made thus far? It was cool to read it and think I was a part of it! Posts: 601 | Registered: Sep 2002

I'm still chugging away, but before this thread even started here way back when I had already promised all of my work units to Team Egg Roll... we're closing in on the top ten Posts: 10886 | Registered: Feb 2000

I've added my new computer to the workers. Well actually I added it right when I got it, but I did so under the same name as I was already using and now I've changed it so I can keep track of which computer does what. Is it sad that I knew our team id and didn't need to look it up when I started this computer on it?
