Well, I think you removed yourself when you tried to push your suggested changes into immediate effect, or else, but we'll get it all sorted out with E.

NO YOU  removed me before the other 2 team Captains we there to give their input. You ready made your decision to keep things like they are instead of doing the right thing.  You failed this not me. So stop trying to lay blame on anyone but yourself. Just to mention I was not drinking last night and your question about it was extremely rude and uncalled for.

That was the point of the Team Captains discussing changes. We did that because we know there are flaws. But, you're not going to just threaten us with quitting and single-handedly change the event rules mid-month. Please allow time for @ENTERPRISEto digest this situation. We've been discussing the issues and resolutions publicly here today in this thread with everyone involved. If we deem removing 960 will be needed, meaning the Team Captains feel it is best, not me, then that's what will happen.

 

We're all trying to have a little fun while contributing to folding@home. It's the first official month. It's a unique event that's not for everyone, and there will be growing pains.

I started to voice my issues about the 960 and was not heard that they are a problem. Just got arguments from the 2 of you that have them. Then you brought it to a pm with just us. While in that you removed me from team captain thread and then blocked me.  Along with tell me you already have a replacement.  So again I still don't understand how you think your decision is best for everyone and not just you two.   It's not. It just benefits the two of you.  Sorts here from everyone that is involved

Yes, he was very supportive of you, I can back him there @damric

 

But, I told him I've used my 960 all along, and that it was dying right at the end of the month, and that it was always my intention to use it. Still no reprieve from him and I don't understand that at all.

I don't understand how you can not see a problem with those 2 cards and how you was so quick to say you will not change the rules to make this a fair event.  You not doing something about it is the issue.  You want that card to fold moonshot work units do it out side of the competition.

As far as I can see, only 1 person broke the rules in the ETF manual, and I sure hope he plugs his machine back in because folding 24/7 all month long is the rules.

 

Just my 2 cents as a folding newbie and veteran overclocker.

It's not breaking rules when you pull out  

BTW you was not mentioned as being a issue.  You chose.your card from the beginning and have stuck with it. The problem is the two who have switched over to the cards to make this all a joke.  So please do not think anything was said about you.

Please finish it out. It's wonky, but it's for a good cause.

Not going to happen. My card is back folding on my passkey. I can put my resources to still crunching.

I'm done with this * farce of a competition. @BWGwill not change rules to get this a fair game. Mainly because he is one of the ones doing it. Team OCN would be the Real winners over the course of the 30 days as we was gaining on team Out of beta. We should have over taken them close to the 30 day mark.Hence a real close race.Then two have swapped out o a ringer card and have made it a run away now. @BWGwill not see that is a issue even though many have said something about it. As team Captian I have to say sorry to TEAM OCN that have shut down my client and will not be a part of this.

My 960 is currently doing about 35 work units a day with the covid moonshot projects.  That likely explains the larger number of work units.

Tell me how to get those. 

It could be like @BWG has a 960 that has put out 43 work units in just a few short days.  Hmmmmm.....  something wrong here.

PM me with what you are after, will give you the status of each board/CPU and the issues I faced. Pretty sure it was just PCI-e lane assignment issues, but meh. 

Sent PM but Damric has first dibs.

Pray to the folding gods for protection of ALL OF THE GPUS

Yes. A little smack talk is good but let's not lose any work units..

Everything on that rig is cheap and sketchy except the PSU now

 Nothing wrong with cheap and sketchy. I have run many a rig that was that way.  Currently I have a case with no front on it no side panel ssd laying on the bottom with 2 240 fans blowing on 2 2070's folding away.

Oh man, it's getting real now. Hoping for more Kevdogs Law Thread posts? Might wanna find a piece of wood to knock on!

I have plenty of backup cards. So if one fails it off to the next one. Lol.

I don't long term that my ETF card will be viable. It's been folding balls to the wall for months now on a massive overclock. It's already given up the ghost twice and been raised from the dead, and it's going on a decade old. It wouldn't surprise me if it shits the bed for good tomorrow lol.

Here on Team OCN that's what we are hoping for. Lol.

Wow, Team OCN is on a rampage! They're catching Out of Beta!

That's the plan.  Damric keeps popping those huge work units but we are gaining ground.  

Well I guess it is kinda scary. Lol

This what we have at work.

@Ducrider Interesting, are you going to make a build log?

I am planning on making one once I get some more of the pieces found in my attic and better idea of the build.

The case in question.  

Latest purchase.  Some rads fittings and a pump res combo. Broke out my old Cooler Master case to finish the case mod build I started almost 10 years ago. Will have 4 rads inverted mother board tray and a whole lot of diamond plate.

Absolutely, not that I care, but i'll point out that you have the same multiplier as me (Roughly), have almost double the base clock and you can overclock your card. So yes, i'll talk *. 

 

I'm definitely switching to the K4000 when I get it running. 

I am out in the country but in a growing area.We got a speed update about a year ago.

How many points have we lost then? It's ok, you losers needed a handicap anyway. 

This coming from someone on the team in the back of the pack?????   LOL

Hey, you guys are winning already.

 

 

Yes it seems that way. I am seeing several teams with work units done but no points showing.

If a team ends up short a member I'll be happy to help fill till a member can be found. Yes I am team captain for Team OCN but am a 24/7 folder. So I always have cards running.  No I'm not gonna give you my best card but would be glad to help.  All I would need is a ok from @BWG and a passkey.  In the end this is all about folding for a cure. It's just fun along the way. 

Here is my main rig. It's a 1080ti running the show and a 1080 folding.  Running 3 360 rads with a Thermaltake Pacifica pump/res combo. I have it in my garage so ambient Temps get high during the day. Under full load folding tems are 43 and 53. Could not ask for better with 100+ degree Temps in the garage. Garage Temps are not in C.
