Countdown to Event End

 

 

In the spirit of folding for the cause and good old friendly competition between members, we are hosting another folding competition. For more details please see below.

 

 

How to participate:

• During the competition you must be folding for Team 239902
• You must post in this thread with "IN" followed by your folding username.

 

Prizes:

• TBD

 

 

Folding Time Prizes:

• TBD

 

 

Excluded from Prizes:

• BWG
• tictoc

 

 

All "Folding Time" prizes will require your username/passkey to be given to the donator, this will not give them any of your personal information, it just let's them be able to contribute full points to your username.  Passkeys need at least 10 full Work Units to start getting the full Quick Return Bonus.  Alternatively, you could setup another passkey for your Folding@Home username with a different email address and fold your first 10 units on that.  This would still put the points towards your username, but they would also be tracked by a different passkey.

 

Please note all winners must claim within 30 days from announcement of the winners.

It would be nice if you could beat me @BWG

I hope the temps drop a bit before this one starts, cause otherwise I'll be in with the 2080ti and one 3090 only.

If that's all you have, I could *almost* beat you with hardware that I own this time.  I won't be renting the cloud gpus this time around...unless @BWG is in the lead.  I can't let that guy win!

I could always run the rest of the GPU's for a few hours, but the 2 cards above are running most of the time.

I also sold the 1660ti to a friend, he needed it to replace a 1050ti. (Extra free slot in the workstation for a bigger card)

All for the cause eh bud....or bankrupting him ?

[BWG]

He's picking up a 3070 right now. I might have induced some of his recent purchases, but he's a big boy.

The 3070 is going to a coworkers son since I was able to get a 3080ti yesterday.  Though, my wife didn't balk at the fact I bought two cards, so I'll be on the hunt for another sooner than later!  (I don't think she realizes how much I spent)

[BWG]

I honestly really like the 3080ti. I can't say anything bad about it other than I wish it was cheaper.
