Welcome to the forums!

 

 

Thanks!  I used to fold for [H] back in the day and recently started folding again.  The folding forum at [H] is rather dead these days.  So, here I am!

? Are you really going to fold for 239902? That's the one caveat in this event. The Extreme Team Folding event we've been chatting about is the one you could fold for Team 33 in.

He's actually been helping with the ETF stats site, but I didn't expect him to fold for us. Wow! That's groovy man!

 

Funny thing is, there's always been these secret IRC Servers OCN wouldn't let us advertise on the forum for good reasons. He's been in the [H] one with me forever, and the one I had started is still functional too. Channel Name is No! lol, but no one in there but me cares about folding anymore.

 

Edit: Since Ethereum Profits are a little down, I might as well tune everything up and fold.

Welcome to the ExtremeHW Folding Competition, Thursday May 27th - 29th, 1 AM UTC (Wednesday May 26th - 28th, 9 PM EDT)

 

Countdown to Event Start

Countdown to Event End

 @axipher I wanted to verify what time the competition starts.  The countdown links are for a day later than you indicated.  (Wed. May 26 9PM EDT vs Thurs May 27 9pm EDT).  Is the competition starting in ~13 hours or ~37 hours?

13 Hours. 9 PM tonight. 0100 UTC. 

 

It gets confusing, just follow the calendar. I will update it monthly.

Have I told you how much I hate Time Zones...

 

The countdowns were a day off.  I thought I had them in UTC time to they were pushed up a day, but no...  I had put the countdown timers as EDT.

 

So a little over 12 hours from the time of this post is when it starts.  Enough time to switch over from OCN Foldathon to this one.

As someone who has never ever had timezone issues, just pretend it was intentional and blame everyone else for not being able to convert to their own timezone. ?

Sounds like it's an issue currently *time zone?

Time Zones are not the problem, it's all those damned different indexes everyone uses...

Yeah, especially in timezones that change for Daylight Savings but their time zone abbreviations aren't used consistently between different platforms, like EST and EDT and ET.

Also bad is programs that force you to select a city as a timezone location instead of the timezone you want.

For us as a small country it's easy, The Netherlands is UTC +1 and +2 in summer time. 

Google is my best friend to convert everything, but mostly to see when the Formula Drift livestream starts :classic_laugh:

 

 

@Robin Come and join the comp! :classic_biggrin:

In your dreams, I told you that you would need about 30 Million PPD to beat him and you are only putting out 16. One can dream.

24 million PPD is enough to take me down for this comp, and I'm shutting down one 3090 for the day (getting a bit too hot in there). 

30 million is possible, but not easy.

 

How does 2nd place feel? Why do people doubt me? ?
