    Well, team, do we go in there and take all their advent candy ?
    2008 challenge was won with 31M points, 2007 with 16M.

    Here we're presented with the time to move on our recent discussions about participating in public challenges.

    Another idea, what about forming a "race" team that would be separate from the main XS team. It would really only be a question of "who's paying enough attention to switch over to the challenge team for the race?" Then some people wouldn't remember to switch back. Maybe not such a great idea.

    don_xvi helps find cures for cancer, AIDS and West Nile, among other research !

    I'm in. According to our stats page and using our average ppd, we should do about 81 million.....

    We need to get leviathon-nz to sign us up.

    24 days? That's almost 80% of a 31 day month.

    Since we do minimum 5.5 mill/day, well 24 x 5.5 is 132 million. It is almost not fair. We'll beat any team except the top two, easily. Even if they beef up.

    edit - not sure whose math is wrong, though i'm not sure i want to get in a math war with an engineer. bob says 81 million I say a little over 130 million. Either way, that is a whole bunch!

    I just looked at the average ppd from the WCG team page. That may be tracking low. In any case, I don't think this one will be a problem. If the team gets a tiny bit of publicity out of it, we have served our purpose.

    the whole team's in if we can get leviathon-nz to sign us up...
    which may be a problem since he hasn't logged in since 01-20-2008 04:49 AM
    http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/member.php?u=23629

    that wcg team ownership needs to be transferred to someone who is currently active... like one of the top dawgs...

    Probably easiest when contacting WCG support

    I have the same problem: the captain of my team is not reachable by mail so far :-(
