Folding Pie and Milestones!!

[NastyHabits]

I wonder how much longer the Nvidia issue will persist? Its to a point where I wake up in the middle of the night when the coil whine goes silent. WEIRD

It is annoying. My clients are no longer hanging forever. They do eventually start a new job.

Servers 171.67.108.11 and .21 from where I get most of my jobs have been fault less the past 3-4 days. Since 2 off my 3 folding rigs are either burned (not because of folding) or at RMA I have the time to supervice the only one running and it runs like a charme. Nock on wood.

Mine hand for at least 30mins before getting a new job- sometimes much longer. At this point I want 1888WU since it would guarantee several hours of continuous folding.

I'd like to be the first one on my block to congratulate El Fiendo on passing 11 million today.
May you have many more such accomplishments.

 

[El Fiendo]

You know you're spending too much time on the computer when you pass out for several hours, wake up, say 'I like this song' and continue browsing the internet as nothing happened. I need to tone down what I intake on my Fridays.

Ah ha! Thanks, I however will be staying firmly behind you for the next while as apparently teeth must come first. Once my quote comes in on those (I will opt for the cheap removal via hammer method if it saves me enough) I can then refocus on computers and home repairs. There's always enough destinations for money but never enough sources it seems.


As for yesterday, it was a pretty good day for production. We hovered just below 850k, which is pretty good considering we're matching our average from a couple of weeks ago when we had more users producing. Once the RMAs are done and back in place, we may just top back over 900k. Everyone tell your friends, with a little additional help here and there we can easily make 1 million a day and keep it there. Great job guys.


Pie!

Feel free to check my findings, I sometimes miss people

Almost got knocked from contention via Folding pie, but 4x4n rallies enough points and sneaks in for another day of dominating the MPAs. Awesome work man.

Milestones!

2010-02-19 |El_Fiendo |11,000,000

Last night showed me attempting to steal the spotlight, and I was able to do so in terms of just milestones. For those that remember, msgclb recently achieved 11 million, and in a few more days as will Oily. This however will be the closest I am to msgclb in milestones for awhile, as he's unleashed a runaway train of points. Whatever the case, I'll take my milestone.

 

[oily_17]

Congrats El, on the 11 million .

I will have to wait ~2 more days to see if I get my big boost in points

 

[bogmali]

Congrats El, on the 11 million

+1

 

[El Fiendo]

The stats last night were a bit less than what we usually see, though as far as I can tell its on Stanford's end. As of writing this, we've already been credited with 300k+ today so we may be getting our missing points today.

Pie!

4x4n got knocked out of the Folding pie today, eliminating all contenders. Nice run though man.

Unfortunately the stats issue has stunted the milestone list tonight, with hertz showing up on his path to 8 million. However, as we've already seen quite a few points turned in today, the stats may well have righted themselves. If we get all of yesterday's points, we could get a flood of milestones this Sunday.

I prefer pliers. Narrow-nose vise grips work well.

BTW: Congrats on the big 11 millioin.

A picture is worth a thousand words. Go for the diamonds(extra bling)

Ya, my pie eating days are over. Sold my GTX260 and I'm considering ending my folding days. These 101xx wu's are really heating up my cards, and driving up all of my temps. My GTX275 runs in the high 80's on these, and close to that with my other cards. Plus all the damn babysitting that goes with f@h. I've been folding for around 5 years now, and it hasn't changed much in the ease of use, (for lack a better description )

I think I'm just going to use my cpu's for dc projects. The latest processors are pretty efficient and use less power than gpu's.

Just kind of rambling here, but I'm seriously considering selling off my gpu's and just run wcg for now.

I have not been folding nearly as long as you at all, but I have the same feeling. CPUs are so much more efficient and F@H seems to always be having issues of some sort. Too hard to quit though, I would need a 12 step program

 

[El Fiendo]

Well, perhaps no spike but yesterday was an average day for production. Though I have to agree, F@H is seeing alot of small issues cropping up here and there. Due to the frequency and the prolific nature of these issues, it is rather disheartening to see the project continually plagued by them. Unfortunately, it would seem that folding has a pretty firm grasp on me and as such I don't believe I'll be stopping any time soon.

You may have downgraded, but you may still have a few kicks in you yet.


Milestones!

2010-02-21 | DanMiner |7,000,000
2010-02-21 |4x4n |1,200,000
2010-02-21 |dies900| 20,000
2010-02-21 |Munki | 25,000

The milestones for the 21st show two ends of the spectrum, the first being Munki, a relative newcomer, earning a milestone at the 25k level. On the other end, DanMiner earns his 7 millionth point after an extended run of folding at home, having first run F@H nearly 3 years ago. Congrats, and thanks to both members.

 

[thebluebumblebee]

Way to go DanMiner!

 

[theonedub]

Uh oh, cant get new work, hoping this isn't another issue

This is how I feel, I got tired of dealing with all of the issues F@H had, so I uninstalled it and now I'm running Collatz Conjecture on the HD5670. I get ~35-40k PPD and so far it has not required any "maintenance". I attached BOINC to it, and since then I haven't touched it

I was just cruising around Kakoastats when I noticed that in the last 24 hours, msgclb posted up over 200,000 points! Way to go! Awesome indeed.

Yep, between msgclb and Bogmali, ol' Buck can't even ride shotgun anymore. I guess I should get used to sittin' in the back seat and asking "are we there yet"?

I just want to say great work on everyone's part. I have looked forward to the day when I stood in the shadow's of others for daily ppd. I hope to see many more in front of me soon.

I guess those points has let the cats out of the bag. Last night at around 8:45 pm CST I got 56,556 points. Sometime before 9am I got 63,762 points followed by another 57,952 points sometime before 3pm. So in the last 24 hour those 3 i7 rigs along with a few video cards bagged me over 200,000 points. I'd rather have those rigs spread there output. Right now those rigs are recharging there batteries and should be ready to discharge again in a couple of days.

Buck you can come out of the shadow with another i7 rig.

*** It's not quite 200,000 points but bogmali currently has 199,258 point on free-dc.

 

[hertz9753]

msgclb and bogmali, I want to let you know, that if your erection lasts longer than 24 hours, seek medical attention. BTW good job to all three of you, Buck included.

 

[hertz9753]

Oily 17, 59,000 point's on the last update.

 

[msgclb]

Oily 17, 59,000 point's on the last update.

Hertz it looks like Oily is trying to move you down another year on the threat list!
More importantly although it probably won't show up tonight on free-dc's milestones, Oily cracked the 11 million mark with that update.
Oily that 59k points is more than your daily production so how did you do it?

 

[bogmali]

Oily that 59k points is more than your daily production so how did you do it?

Ummm......cough*****-bigadv******cough......

I should have one more hitting in approximately 3 hours

 

[El Fiendo]

Agreed, Bogmali and msgclb both dominated the stats tonight, accounting for almost 58% of the pie. Oily has earned himself his first bigadv, bringing another i7 into play for the team. Also, it appears that it wasn't counted in time for the pie, so it will likely be tomorrow. Very good work guys, let's keep building our arsenal.

2010-02-22 |KieX| 10,000

Technically Oily's update shouldn't come until tomorrow, as it was achieved on the 23rd. However, I write the posts so I'm bending the rules tonight. We start out with Kiex and dies900, two of our most recent additions to the team, earning their 10k and 25k milestones respectively. Both of you should see your folding badge before too long, based on your current PPD. Meanwhile, Oily lands another million on his total, brining him to 11 million and closer again to the turmoil in the top 5. If his bigadv units become a mainstay, he'll easily move in and cause some trouble. Great work guys, awesome job.
