What are the details of it?
Do we just have to run F@H like normally for the week?
Or is it a separate thing that we'd have to sign up for/dl and configure?

hey bub, nope all we would need to do is make a new TPU forum acc, and F@h for that account.
So say I create an account here on TPU called "TPU-F@H-CC" or something, then I would set up a pass key for it so that al us Bigadv Linux and Notfred folders can utilise our rigs fully.

then we all would need to set up our clients to fold for that nmae for team 50711 for the whole duration of the CC period.
So your config for folding would be

Name: TPU-F@H-CC
Team: 50711
passkey: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

I would submit this to the event organiser and when the time comes we all alter the config of our clients for a few days and fold like mad

hope this helps you understand it

I'm in then! Let's see if TPU can take the world by surprise!
After I get my main rig up and running again, would someone be willing to help me out w/ the f@h config on it so I can get the best out of my stuff on it?

For this project I will use an i7 920 that I got from the late Jon Magoon and have it fold in his memory. Will switch it back to crunching when the challenge is over.

If I get an nVida card before the Challenge, I should be able to do 4-5k, otherwise I'm looking at ~1.3k. I may switch my X4 955 over from WCG, I'll have to think that over

Buck has a vote down for participating, so I think we can count him in too.

I have a couple of unregistered 8800GTS 640 that I will be doing a step up once EVGA comes out with their GF100 line-ups. Leaning towards the GTX470 due to the launch pricing Will hopefully have them folding when this challenge starts
