Team HWC's daily average seems to overshoot their current production by about 90-100k, so we've roughly 3-4 weeks until they overtake us at this rate. Both teams are currently missing members, whether they're out of town or down for RMAs, it seems to be the fate of both teams. At least its good to know that we're not the only ones struck down with hardware issues now and again, though I suppose that's schadenfreude. Aside from that, its a race against time to see if we can overcome their advance or succumb to their onslaught.

Though looking at both teams in another light, HWC wasn't far behind us in the summer time in terms of PPD. Considering that we've added about 600k PPD since May-June, they've added around 650-700 themselves. Between our two teams F@H has gotten at least 1.2 million points per day stronger, which is more than most teams can hope to put out. Our trading punches has left a warpath of folded work units that hopefully will go on to cure cancer or maybe unlock the key to mutant powers so some of us can be gods amongst men!

Having said that, I hope we put the boot to their butt and then return our focus to running down helpless victims ahead of us.


Pie!

Tonight starts out with TheLaughingMan earning his F@H badge by handing in a work unit that tips him over 100,000 points. His 2 months of folding for us have hopefully just begun a long and illustrious career. Also tonight, someone whose proven themselves time and again adds another million to the stack. Hertz9753 would have himself a badge upgrade, were he not already sporting a 'Crazy Folder' badge. His 4 millionth point is only the start, as in another 20 days or so, he looks to make his total 5 million. If I could actually figure a way to send a case of beer to you, I would.

Thanks El, for reminding us how far both teams have come. Most days we are at adds with HWC, but they are our polar opposite that we cannot survive without. I applaud their effort, as it requires us to dig deeper in our attempt to fend the off. Well done HWC!

P.S. Now prepare to continue to observe our taillights.

Nahh, you still have the upperhand with 5K and the extra card. We don't need a very good camera to decide who wins. You will. Race you to 1 M.

Ah, my good Sir. You do know your weaponry. I'll bet you're a big fan of R. Lee Ermey.

I'd drop and give you 25, but I have a doctor's note.

Tonight we spend our time plucking HWC's teeth from their mouth. With the aide of a couple of bigadv work units we soared to 940k yesterday, while HWC stuck around 920k for the day. Bogmali hints that a second WU is on the way, and we'll likely see it in the early hours of the morning. I've got my i7 down to 2 days and 10 hours, though with some tips from a few people at HWC I look to cut that down a little more.

Meanwhile we are also getting a surge from members pulling out the stops and switching their CPUs over to F@H temporarily. Quite a few members are answering the call to action, and we may just turn back HWC yet.


Pie!

2009-12-21 freakshow 25,000

The night begins with freakshow handing in for his 25k milestone. These few work units are the first we've seen in many months, but hopefully we see a few more in the coming weeks. Meanwhile, two millionaires decide to extend their e-peen by adding another million to their total. Thebluebumblebee becomes the team's next F@hmillionaire as he earns his 2 millionth point tonight and snags an updated folding badge. Oily_17 then tosses on a million to bring his total to 8 million, though his folding badge remains 'Crazy Folder'. Congrats to all our 'stoners tonight.

200 000. This little 260 is chugging along quite nicely!

And time permitting, will have a 9600GT for company soon.

Today we kept HWC's lead to a mere 80k. While we're still being beaten in points, the 80k is a far sight better than the 300k+ we faced just a week ago. We've been given a break and have found ourselves with a little leeway. Hopefully it sticks around and doesn't disappear in the coming days, though it would seem most anything could happen. Don't give up hope yet guys, and keep on folding.

Tonight, the winner of a personal challenge is also tonight's only member handing in a milestone. Easy Rhino slams down his 500,000th point and continues down the long path to his first million. However he's still be stalked by mstenholm, who just missed the milestones tonight. His close presence makes me wonder who will reach 1 million first. Of course, until then I guess we'll never know.
