I better hurry up and start switching my rigs over then (lol, not that there is that many)! When does the actual "month" begin (when do we start keeping track)? And will it be 28 days, 30 days, or what? Good luck to all! Keep folding for the cure!

Uh oh! looks like Xavier is going to pass me while I have my main rig apart for a few days! Who knows, you might have past me anyways. Gotta love those A64s!

Man, I dont know what your packin...but I cant seem to catch up! lol

My A64 rig went through some issues (voltage for one), then I updated the Folding core, then I rearranged my office at home...hehehe (looks sweet now)

I had to move everything around to get the 2 future rigs to run (didnt want them sitting on the floor), but this way I get to showcase the water rig and the A64 rig very nicely...(I think I did a helluva job with that A64 rig, as far as cleanliness goes)

I'll post more pics soon.

I think once I get the momentum going, and the other systems stablized...I should be able to catch Death in points...but damn if his PPD is 1/3 more than mine!

On a sweet note...we have at least 16 Overclock.net Folding Team Members!!! WOOOHOOO!!!

we R GETTIN R DONE!!!

I think we're 20 or so spots out of the top 1500! (That was fast!)

We gotta get some other members to fold too, 20 folder would be awesome, and 25 even better. We just blew through 500 teams in a matter of 2 weeks.


But we are "GITTIN IT DONE"

Ok Boys this old fart has given it a lot of thought, and ive read up on the subject.
I have decided to sacrifice my second rig for the cause - 24/7. Thursday night after work Im going to download the folding program and start.

Now what folding team is this? Team Abit right?

LOL

You shouldnt look at it as a sacrifice. Cause you wont even notice it running. The new one is buggy though. When you try to expand the program as a window it will crash. Just dont expand it and it will be fine.
