Official 2010 Chimp Challenge Thread

[thebluebumblebee]

Guys how do I make sure my cards are folding for the chimp challenge correctly? just got into folding to help out on the challenge and I am completely lost

Make sure the username is set to ChimPowerUp, that's it

Additionally, use HFM.NET. It will show the user and team for each client.

yep, name is fine

Make sure the username is set to ChimPowerUp, that's it

So for the SMP2 set-up I am supposed to use the username ChimPowerUp and not my username? Crap - I think all three rigs have HammerON as the username

So when I get home tonight from work I will try to change the Username on all three rigs. Man, I keep screwing this up

Will someone plese confirm that I am supposed to be using ChimPowerUp as the Username for SMP2 set-ups?????

Yes, use ChimPowerUp, otherwise the points won't count towards our 20mill total required to finish

Use ChimPowerUp for all clients (BTW do you have the passkey for ChimPowerUp? If not, I'll sent it to you)

EDIT: That's the spirit Chris, neither of our teams may win, but science will!

Yep have passkey. So when I switch over the username tonight, will all of the work the three rigs have done over the last 20 hours switch as well; or just start from that point that the username is switched?

Just from that point on..there's no way to switch WUs that have already been returned

As long as the WU is not finished when you switched user-names, ChimPowerUp will get the credit.

I've switched to using my laptop at home to maximize PPD on the i7

How often does someone with the -smp 8 -bigadv -advmethods flags get an actual bigadv WU?

You won't get -bigadv with -advmethods! If you're not running the VM, don't worry about it.

Maybe, maybe not. From http://foldingforum.org/viewtopic.php?t=10697

A2: If you're using -advmethods or any other flag intended to designate a specific class of WU assignment, remove that flag becuase it can override -bigadv.

I was just teasing, because of the exclamation point on your post.

That ! was expressing my about the absurdity of that fact.

I agree with that, but you're always so calm.

Yep, when i saw HWC's ppd shoot that high, I knew it had to be NCIX. Like a see-saw, one goes up and the other must go down.

Well, that sucks, I guess we have no chance of anything except last place

 

[bogmali]

That graph cannot be right, I just refuse to believe that we're stuck at 500K

And what a perfect timing for Stanford to run out of bigadv WUs I have two rigs that cannot pull any fu@#ing work since yesterday
