It's simple economics in terms of my power bill. ;) Just wondering how you might be planning to handicap me? Nothing has changed hardware wise since the last contest. I reserve the right for a few tricks or treats though. :up:Quote:

No one's voiced an opinion on making it a close race this time, so DAK shouldn't feel any pressure to impose handicaps like I did on the Laborday comp.. I think we all learned a few things along the way from that one... these comps will probably be better with each one, learning from the mistakes of the last...

Mike, I hope you didn't take my attempt at humor as a dig at you. :( You did a great job! :yepp: Somewhere in the last couple pages Dak made a reference to teams being formed based on a 30 day 24hr. average. Since mine won't represent my possible production and RR's won't either... I was just inquiring how that might be handled. :shrug: If it is a non issue, you won't hear me complaining. :up:Quote:

In fact, perhaps this race would be most fun if it were completely unfair...Let's not under estimate the power of fun. In the end, everyone is still a winner!!!:up:
I didn't take the comment personally, wfo... that race is in the past anyway... I just didn't want the handicap comment in this thread creating confusion for this race, in case others try to read in between the lines of the comment. that's the only reason I posted and quoted Dak's OP WIP list.
3 weeks from Sunday!
Hey Mike, sorry for the 4:15AM phone call...I didn't awaken you did I? Who was barking in the background...?:rofl:
I went back to sleep ;) that trip kinda wore me out, usually I'm awake by 4 and up by 5; last 2 mornings I've slept right past it and didn't bat an eye til around 6.Quote:

Hmmm... have we gone from "Office Space" to "Caddyshack?"
"Last time I saw a mouth like that, it had a hook in it.":rofl:
where's the eyes!
[I killed a spider with fire while posting this... :lol:]
It should be ~4100. Lately I've gotten some slow projects though...:shrug: I've only been able to pump out 3 WU's a day. :mad:Quote:

anyone wanna toss around some possible team names.... since we're gonna need more than X or S this time...
TEAM = Xray - Tango - Sierra
or maybe a Halloween theme like TEAM = Demon -Vamp - Ghost
I dunno, kick some names around and see what sprouts..
Can I be on team Reno 911? I'm going to dress up as one of the Reno cops for Halloween... :rofl:
Looks like we are aiming at 3 teams unless we get more sign up soon...Quote:
