Countdown to Event End

 

ATTENTION Extreme Team Folding Participants: Please make sure you do not fold anything under your ETF GPU Passkey except for the GPU you are participating in the event with. You need to use a 2nd passkey to fold anything else in this event.

 

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:

• $25 PayPal - @axipher - Won by @tictoc
• $100 PayPal (Must beat BWG in Points) - @BWG - Won by @DownWithBWG
• $50 PayPal (Must complete 25 work units) - @BWG - Won by @nova4005

 

Folding Time Prizes:

• 24 hours of folding on a 3080 Ti (Drawn from lowest half of participants) - @firedfly - Won by @damric

 

Excluded from Prizes:

• axipher
• BWG

 

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.

In as BWG no prizes since I've automatically been excluded by Canada. I had a killer maple bacon flavored creme filled donut the other day from a local bakery. It was delicious.

Fixed that, copy-paste bug in the editor

 

And maple bacon anything is just the greatest.

It's Thanksgiving month here in America, so put me down for $100 PayPal. The restriction is: Must beat me.  Also, $50 to any single folder with at least 25 completed work units.

I was planning to beat you anyway.  That $100 will help the cause!

Oh my, nice! Where did you come from? Do I have an actual fan now? Wanna be a BWG Patreon? Totally joking, but I'm glad you're here to help us!

Yeah you can fold 24 hours for me in the next foldathon. Seriously I didn't even know about this event but I won a prize

 

On a positive note, summer is finally over here so I haven't had to run my air conditioning more than a few days this month. It's been nice with the windows open so I will probably compete in the next foldathon for sure.

[nova4005]

Thanks @BWG for the great prize!
