Until we pass XtremeResources.

Anybody know what happened to them? Their production dropped like a rock a few months ago.

I'd pay them a visit but they couldn't get PO'ed enough to ramp up their folding enough.

Next it looks like we will be getting passed by the file swappers. Looks like we are peaking out...............unless we can get more new folders and some of the old grey folders back in action. Cooler weather is around the corner.

Folders make great wintertime heat!

Well, my Folding is down. No longer running the client at work. And yeah, summer has hit me at home, no Folding happening here until it cools down a bit. Its bad enough just leaving three computers running, not gonna think about having four systems Folding. And here I am looking at building up a dually system. geez...

Zyzzyx, you have my sympathy, it's only 07:25 here and already 18ºC....... :o .. :wink:


So, will it be a much bigger house that takes much longer to warm up... or water cooling, using the swimming pool as a heat dump? :lol:

I've been thinking of water cooling.... but bearing in mind my ramblings earlier in the year, I can see the results would be kinda like this :

Hrmph... at least I'm on the coast, most that we usually see during the day is ~27C. Inland (where I work during the week) its usually over 30C, often over 35C, and has even been over 40C a few times this summer. Thankfully the office has A/C, and our room has its own wallmount A/C. :)

26C at night and I call 30C cool weather atm. One of my folders is down and pete, your father is taking advantage of that. Once the mobo is fixed, you can be ready for Vol III of Kill Bill :)

Btw, several sites we had on the overtake list really stepped on the pedal. Even MacRumors is close behind. We definitely need to up the production.

Looks like just one more day (plus a few hours). We trail them by only 34K points, and are overtaking at a rate of 26K per day.

Looks like the next overtake will be SPCR getting overtaken by p2p-community in about 3 months. They are overtaking us by 20K per day, and are growing steadily, so there's not really much we can do about it.

Oh well - such is life... :)

Something tells me that more of us are interested in the rankings within the team as in the ranking of the team. Hmmm........
