    RUSSIA: Done.

    Nailed them. Well done everyone, past and present.

    A special thanks to Helheim since he did most of the work this past while back. I'm back in town again for a couple of weeks hopefully myself.

    Thanks also to Skycrane who did alot until recently, and also to Dak's 200 million.

    And of course everyone else on the team, big and small who made this day possible.

    I am very happy. I've waited 2 years for this.

    Sorry for my ignorance. What does this mean exactly? All I know about Dimes is you run some kind of client on your computer to help map the internet (or something along those lines). Does this mean Russia is done or something?

    We overtook their team a few days ago in points. After they originally overtook US about two years ago. Two years ago we were the No.1 team overall. Now we're second just behind Ukraine. We aim to nail them aswell.

    yea like riptide said, we are just trying to get our #1 spot back. it looks like it should be ours again by the new year and yes, thats what the client does, just maps the net from your comp. its a small little program that works well in VMs so i hope to see you producing soon..

    I've read some stuff on this forums about it. I'm just scared to run it since I have latency issues caused by some magical force. I wouldn't want to upset this magical force and be unable to play counter strike: source.

    Congratz on overtaking Russia.

    I just played some CS:S while running DIMES and it made no difference (no lag at all).

    Dimes does a mesurament 4 times a min, so you might be looking at maybe 15kb/min????

    Yea, because you don't have any magical force in your interwebz.

    You could just try it with Dimes on and play some CSS. If there's lagg then you can just turn Dimes off when you want to play.

    I'm sorta still here, I've shut down all my single core rigs, so that's about 200. Vms right there. I'm working out of town, and only get back home every other weekend to check on everything

    But ill my other rigs up and running over the holliday weekend.
    I should be good for 300k. A day or so.

    Remember that I ran multiple dimes clients some years ago, but then my provider closed my connection because of suspicious connections.

    Hey guys, great to see this is all still going strong and congrats on beating Russia at long last. Wish I could join the party again but it seems my life conspires against me when it comes to DCing.
