Boards.ie 2-day Foldathon

zodac · 2010-09-21 15:38:03

What is the Foldathon: In an effort to try and kick start the Folding team here at boards.ie, we'll be holding a 2 day Foldathon every month. 2 days when you forgo gaming, and fire up some Folding clients. Pretty sure most of us will get competitive, so plenty of banter to be had, and best of all, you'll be helping…

Just had a look at the recent SETI stats

Guys... I think that with one hand we gave to Peter Stanford, but only by robbing Paul SETI... :o:o:p

Ok, bit late for this month, but I added in a graph for the stats, so we can compare stats a bit better from now on.

Awesome.

I'm getting close to getting automatic stats over at OCN; so far I can get EOC's stats pulled, but that only updates every 3 hours. With a bit of work, we might be able to get Stanford's hourly updates by next Foldathon.

Probably not in this specific thread; this is a Folding@home event.

Maybe try asking in the forum this thread is in?

Don't bother, if I can't get the i5 by then (without the WC loop it'd be stock anyway! ) I'll just have to make do with a soon-to-be-3.6GHz+ E5200 instead.

Even if I did get the i5 it'd be stuck in an Anti-case :pac:

In that case, 17th-19th it is. I'll post the thread in a bit.

And that cardboard case is awesome. Much better than the Dell crap I've got.

I'm taking steps to increase my rank this time.

Quick question,

How do you convince a 10 year old cousin that Folding@Home
must be done on their PS3.....?

No, nothing that crude.

Convince them that Folding actually speeds up gaming when Folding is off.
