Oh no, those 18806 are still around?  They take ~24 hours or so on some of my CPUs.

Welcome aboard all you last minute and late-comers.

 

I just got confirmation of two nice coolers from be quiet! so I put links and images in the original post. Those two coolers are USA/Canada only per, be quiet! I forgot to add that in, but it will have to wait until tomorrow as I'm off to bed.

 

Good luck everyone!

Damn, I thought the event would start 24hrs later than it did. Well, better late than never I suppose, let's do this!

I'll just go ahead and put the blame purely on timezones. Gosh, how I hate those things! 

 

To top it all of, my 13700KF didn't want to play nicely and even corrupted the GPU's work unit, that's what you get for trying to fold on untested settings.

Guess I'll have to resort to folding on the GPUs only, oh well. With 25M PPD (give or take) on the GPUs alone, the CPU doesn't really contribute much anyways. Still bums me out for the time lost fiddling until finally giving up and falling back to GPU-only. 

Moral of that story: Test, test, test your settings before folding and then test them once again for good measure!

I just never stop folding

[The Pook]

no prizes for me either; looking forward to shrinking pookie's head and having it bobbling quietly on a shelf in my emporium.

 

(got to finish the work on my slugster boomstick first though)
