The Minions continue to do well

Though having missed my Dumb and Dumber reference, this spells redemption in my book

Though having missed my Dumb and Dumber reference

Indeed. Should I be scared of Ion's minions like I am those little yellow buggers? I don't trust them.

[Nordic]

Woo! Cool that it happened during the challenge.

Very awesome indeed, great work james!

Congrats guys, Vinska in particular!

A little over 4 days left of challenge time! Rockout


well, it's a little more than a "little over" but it's all good

 

[Tallencor]

So what your saying is you intend to stay as you are after the challenge? Thought as much. Keep your eyes open, I intend to match your current contribution in ohhhhh 55 years or so. Don't suppose you would stop posting points for awhile?

Full speed ahead until mid-May, when I'll have to shut down 90% of my setup for three months. 100F weather + paying for electricity makes such a collection of computers far less feasible

You're mortal after all!

Yeah, summer is tough to crunch away "balls to the wall" because of the heat and power.


Plus, Kai, you don't even know what it's like to have a wife yet I suppose, so that'll be one more thing to contend with, perhaps

You could always loan them out. Mind you you'd have to pay for shipping though. Just saying.

Hmm, this is a nice idea.....

Loan them out; pay for shipping; possibly never see your system again... I like this idea

 

[Nordic]

Move north. Far north. It will won't be an issue anymore when you use your computers as your sole source of heat.

Well, I have a couple loaned out to close friends who I trust not to destroy them. So far so good
But loaning them out & shipping would be far more trouble than IMO it's worth.

Mortal indeed :/
No wife, that is true, but I do have parents who are vehemently opposed and consider all of this to be a waste of time, electricity, and money. So as long as I stay with them over the summer, WCG has to take a temporary break. But come August again when school starts up, then it's balls-to-the-wall

I love the sound of balls to the wall!

I'd say you certainly earn a break for the summer months for all that you accomplish!

 

[Nordic]

I wonder how much shipping is for a 4p system.

 

[manofthem]

I bet a few team-high-rollers might know

Norton said shipping it from Connecticut to Raleigh was about $100....

I see two zero's so my gut reaction is "eww"
