Countdown to Event Start

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 TBD
• $100 PayPal to whoever beats BWG's output the most - @BWG - Won by TBD

 

Folding Time Prizes:

• TBD

 

Excluded from Prizes:

• axipher

 

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.

Did it involve smoke?

Looks to be a riser instead.

Congrats everyone. Thank you for participating.

 

I had some hardware problems on my main rig with the 2700x and vega64 constantly crashing or I would have pumped out more a few more wus. I think that freebie 2700x might be a dud since it seems to crash at stock settings when folding. I ended up having to dial in constant clocks and extra voltage to get it to finish the last wus. It just runs hot as hell even under water so probably a very high leakage low quality silicon.

I know the usual names that are typically IN for Foldathons, what I might do is add a second sheet to that Google Docs in the first post with the current sign-ups so that you only need to say IN once and track it that way.  We don't have 100+ members yet that I need to worry about setting up another sign-up system like I had on OCN yet.

I certainly wouldn't complain about that if it doesn't create additional issues for you.

firedfly beat me and won my $100. I paid him and he spent it already. (probably on the bill to beat me ) 

 

Axipher's prize should be drawn on the 5th Friday of March  

 

Nice work everyone. A lot of new names this month.
