Folding Pie and Milestones!!

[[Ion]]

Woohoo! I just broke 400k!
(96k in WCG... Badge, I'm comin' for you!)

Congratulations! 100K is the best milestone in WCG that I've reached (most significant, after all it's 6 digits), but I've heard 500K is also fun

 

[hat]

96767 points in wcg so far... I will most definately hit 97k today, possibly even 98k if I leave my computers alone all day.

 

[El Fiendo]

Very nice Hat!

Also, I've added to the colossal post above, more milestone!

 

[xBruce88x]

thanks BUCK NASTY and Oily_17 for the help with my points.

by the way... is there a folding@home or WCG program for xbox 360? i've got one that's just sitting there doing nothing lol. (i can't afford live atm)

I also have a recently "acquired" P4 HT 3.0ghz system i was going to add to WCG but it doesn't want to play with ICS, i know the settings are right because i just successfully go my xbox and laptop connected the same way (not at the same time, tested one at a time). I think its the OS on that comp... XP MCE

Yesterday saw HWC maintain their 120k margin on us, even though they dipped to 984k. If they keep up at this pace we're looking at around 50 days for them to overtake us. We can't leave them unchecked, of course saying is always easier than doing.

We've seen quite a few new additions up to this point ourselves already, with our user total being bumped up to 87 people currently. This has helped fuel our advance through the ranks and likely will in the future. As for thinking of anyway to continue getting scads of new members, my minds unfortunately blank.

4 milestones cropped up last night in the slew of numbers being handed in, starting with the aforementioned Barron whose just handed in 25k. Past him, we have mosheen and DanishDevil each drawing a 50k milestone. Based on production, DD should have very little time remaining before he hits 100k. As for mosheen, he won't be too far behind achieving his folding badge. And as for someone who'd have upgraded their tag, if it weren't alreadly labeling him as Crazy, Msgclb fits nicely. He turned in his 5 millionth point and with it adds another cool million to his F@H multimillionaire status, and is now the 10th TPU member to achieve 5 million points with TPU alone. Very nice work.

This morning i noticed a couple things when I refreshed free-dc.
First, Buck is doing his best to get his name included on the MPA. And also xBruce88x has got himself a piece of our morning pie.

Congratz msgclb very nice 5 Mil!!!

I'm surprised I'm able to post up tonight, this past 24 hours has been alot of bad luck. I've still got 1 rig left to chug away while I RMA the motherboard off my AMD rig. I may have to keep production down to help pay for all this bad luck that's been cropping up though. I feel bad after seeing Bogi, as well as a few others, are scaling back as well. Hopefully I can get this RMA'd and done quickly so I can get back in the game.

Our production today was 878k, though I'm not sure where our PPD lies. We were on an upward trend, but with these contributor hits due to RMAs or other, we could well drop back down in numbers. HWC topped 1 million again today and they look like they're right on track for taking us down within 50 days.

We have 1 milestone tonight, which is actually 2 due to the circumstances. TeXBill's output in his first couple of days has been enough to propel him past both 10k and 25k. This promising addition to the team looks to conquer many a foe on his upward trend. Congrats TeXBill.

Well, some good news at least as today I seem to be mostly back online. 1 of my GPUs still isn't folding right, but after leaving the board unplugged overnight it booted up. Thankfully no RMA. I then found out that my OS drive has lost vast quantities of space. Looks like when my rig cratered it garbled a few things. It's running pretty stable seemingly so I'll put it to work and find out what pops up.


Pie!

Amazing output Bruce88, a very welcome addition to the team.

3 milestones tonight, starting off with tyson8earzz earning his 25k at a nice brisk pace, and quickly moves towards his 50k milestone. Meanwhile Supreme0verlord snags his 100k milestone, along with a nice badge to tote around the forum. Very nice work. Lastly we have ACD grabbing his 250k milestone. He's really picked up production in the past few months, and continues pushing higher.


Great work all.

 

[A Cheese Danish]

Woohoo! Finally hit 250k!
What a great feeling this is!
Thank you to all that have helped me get into this!
I really enjoy everything I'm doing for the human race!

Keep folding everyone

Congratulations Cheese Danish. Way to go.

I've now got over 131K in WCG. Where's my crunching badge? I need my crunching badge!

Did that. Weeks ago. Just checked and re-entered. No change.

I'm going to change my nickname to R.Dangerfield -- I get no respect. (J/K).

EDIT: Forget my complaints. I understand now that 7 WCG points equals one BOINC point. I still have a long way to go.

 

[xBruce88x]

yea i just got a couple pcs on wcg now... i'm sure it'll be a while before i get a badge lol, where do i check for ppd and other stats for wcg?

 

[El Fiendo]

So yesterday saw us leveling out around 810k, which isn't too bad considering the hits we just took to some of our members. The Canucks dropped to 950k yesterday though, and I'd say this is our best time for a rally. I just worked all the kinks out of my motherboard, and am back to folding on all the cards. Now I plan to break everything again with a little AMD overclocking. If all goes well, I may have enough time to give my i7 a boost too, which will add some PPD.

Let's get on the offensive and put these guys back in their place.


Pie!

Oh and I should mention, we now have everyone in the top 20 as 10k+. Everyone in the top 10 is still a crazy folder. Nice work guys.

It would appear there are 6 certificates being earned tonight, starting first with Mstenholm earning his first 10k. Next up we have King Wookie earning his 25k, well on his way to 100k. Speaking of 100k, both adam99leit and Bruce88 earn theirs tonight, along with their folding badge. Next we have kenny21 earning 50k, and a hidden milestone being claimed by TeXBill, whose skipped 50k and gone straight on to 60k. I still caught you though, so up goes your name.

Very nice everyone.

Due to blatant oversight, there is actually an 7th team member that was missed. With a PPD that is punishing the WUs, his 25k earnings were hidden by the sudden jump past it to 30k. his PPD places him in the top 20 and is a venerable addition to the team. Very nice output, and thanks for the contributions!

My experience is that there is no FAHmon for BOINC. The BOINC Manager actually shows you what you've done, and what your average is. That average is based on the amount of work done since the day you signed up. BOINCview is another program out there that shows more information, but still does not give "real time stats" like FAHmon. The Projects tab in BOINC Manager shows work done and average work done. Even though it took me some time to get BV set up, I don't use it any more. Free-DC has pretty good stats with a 7 day average and the BOINC average from the beginning (RAC).

Zomg- -I am ignored.

When someone like you comes on board and drops a whole bunch of points, you can blow right by many of the first milestones, and can be missed when the milestones are posted. Nothing personal, it just happens. Don't worry, when someone comes around and drops 14K PPD, THEY'RE NOTICED. That places you in the top 20 of the team! Might even push me out of the top 20. Thanks a lot. (JK)

you can take the systems that you have folding for me back to your name now i'm almost where i was at when i joined the team now. thnx again for the help

and i've finally got my gpu working right now... ~3000-3100 ppd instead of 1100-1200

 

[El Fiendo]

Well, as mentioned Stanford hasn't done many updates for yesterday. They are switching over to new servers but I thought that was aimed for Nov 14th / 15th. At any rate I'm certain its not lost WUs, more just a stats glitch. In the next few days I suspect we'll see a massive spike hit us.

In other news, the Canucks only managed 10k on us today! Any day where they can only manage so little gain is a win to me.

Pie!

Enjoy that lime pie Hertz, I have a feeling someone else will come looking for that tomorrow.

Even though the points stopped updating sometime midday, we still have one milestone sneaking in. I'm sure when the points all flood in we'll see even more than usual, but for today I'll take the break. PowderedSugar hits 25k and continues the long haul to 50k, and eventually to 100k. Congrats and good luck friend.
