At the moment my daily average is 780'000 WCG ppd. But if you wait until the date I mentioned I will be probably around 800'000 ppd.

My friend, what your doing is a good thing.
Unfortunately we're sort of stuck with these dates.
Another time perhaps..We won't forget you..

Ok, then count me from 1st to 8 November with whatever I will have available.

We walk outside and attempt to convince ourselves that it's all worth it? ....actually, no, that doesn't really work since I don't go outside much... Hmm...sell all of our extra stuff and rarely ever buy anything? Yeah, that sounds closer to the truth...

Hope have 6 more cores for the S.C. week....

Stil noob, but will contribute more...hopefully...

Is there anything special, that I should do before SuperComputer week?

something like:
1. setting BOINC cache to 7+ days in case servers go down?
2. clean dust from my computer ?
3. turn off central heating and go for max OC?
4. install illegal BOINC clients at work and/or at my friends computers?
5. take a vacation, so I can be around if there's any trouble?

**Rob_B** · 10-24-2010, 08:13 AM

Yes to all 5.

And don't forget to OC the computers at work and from your friends.

6. Emptying out bank accounts and maxing out credit cards to buy Core i7-970 rigs.

I might be able to find an extra Barton or T-Bred to run that week.

**D_A** · 10-24-2010, 12:10 PM

Did the dates just change?

**trn** · 10-24-2010, 02:06 PM

Maybe they should... we are getting down to 1 week away and still no email blast

**D_A** · 10-24-2010, 02:16 PM

Well if the post man is kind to me I might be able to step up, but for now I'm tapped out.

**kjeldoran** · 10-24-2010, 03:28 PM

I can probably bump up my athlon x4 to 3.6ghz for the supercomputer week. My i7 860 might be able to hit 3.4ghz+ on this h55n board, but it is sitting at 3.25ghz @ 1.1V. It needs a voltage bump to get any higher and the temps increase by a lot.

Now if sammies could overclock...or maybe if boinc could run on the ipad.

**Angmaar** · 10-24-2010, 04:15 PM

I may be back for this.

**Gamekiller** · 10-26-2010, 12:44 AM

I just got the email. Nice work!

**Tragic** · 10-26-2010, 01:03 AM

I just got the email and signed up. So you will have 1 more rig for the week

**Madidas** · 10-26-2010, 02:41 AM

E-mail received and I´m in. Not 24/7 but doing the my (tiny) part as usually.
And 18th birtday tomorrow then...

**Metroid** · 10-26-2010, 02:43 AM

I'm in.

**mcflurry4321** · 10-26-2010, 02:53 AM

Wow I've been away a long time. Got the email and decided to come back, considering I don't pay electricity at my current apartment.

Since I've been out awhile, which projects are we working on? Just the general WCG one or what?

**slaveondope** · 10-26-2010, 03:09 AM

Got the 1090r prepped for 4.1ghz with an h50 and will ramp the 920 up to 4.4/4.5ghz for the challenge

Plus laptop is up to full speed with new battery.
Just have to look into getting some Macs from family on the job might involve me doing some yard work for ma and pa.

**Rinsewand** · 10-26-2010, 03:57 AM

Corr, it's been a while - Got the email and figured I may as well - will have to catch up on everything - I miss the D2OL, Dimes, Majestic-12, F@H, WCG team spirit... Will install once I get home and post back!

*waves*

**shoota** · 10-26-2010, 04:15 AM

**aythrea** · 10-26-2010, 05:10 AM

here we go again! 3 P4s, my PII X4, and if I can get squirrel eater revived, an added D820 2.8. Start donating squirrels to the revival plan of Squirrel Eater!
