O.K Team Penguin, bring it on!!!

[vaio]

Greetings

As you know I am just visiting the HL team at the moment.
But methinks Team Penguin is having it a tad too easy sooooooooo.........

Pup challenges Team Penguin in a race to 100k.

Will have to go "home" after the race to catch up with my home team

So bring it on Tux

Of course It'd be even better if a new teamie joins and blows us both out of the water.

Let the challenge begin!!!


*Current Stats*

Team Penguin: 37665.
VAIOMAN: 5983.

Let's have some fun

[Tyreal]

Well there's my craptastic team that's been trying hard to catch up to the buggers but our team mostly consists of computers that are only on 6 hours a day. Sometimes less.

[vaio]

So, this team penguin.........how many people/rigs is it?
May have to push my overclocks to breaking point

[screwballl]

just myself, I have 4 SocketA/P4 level PCs... then my C2D running a few thousand points per week... so we are looking at just from my output around 60 or less days to 100K

[Tyreal]

I don't think it's just you... there are a few more i think.

It varies. I'm not sure how many people are actively folding for the team, but we have 8 CPUs right now (two have stopped, but I have two more cores that're working on their first WUs).

If you wussies think you're man enough, you're on!

[vaio]

Okie doke..........I won't bother waiting for ya

[screwballl]

you will be lucky since I have to RMA my CPU through newegg so will be a week or so without my E6400... due to the number of bad CPUs of this type, I will be trying to get them to upgrade me tot he E6600

Not much point running with these 30xx units.......can't monititor them when I'm at work and can't keep all rigs online to pull new work.

I may have to temporarily pull a few boxes myself
Can't afford to just waste electricity.......may switch them to another project for now.

edit: 30 hours wasted

Bwahaha! How about this: The loser has to fold for the winner for a week!
