We do it for the reward in helping the future of medical research...most of the other teams seem to have other driving forces

Very true.. I'm sure we all know we don't need our own "drives" pushed... pure addiction is sufficient... but it is sometimes enjoyable to put a new fire into others. It could have been a good excuse to spread the addi...errm fun around.We do it for the reward in helping the future of medical research...most of the other teams seem to have other driving forces
yes, they just joined about 2 weeks ago, for the 2 march points races. WCG had a little trouble processing their 5500+ sign ups in such a short timeTheir power per user may not be very impressive.. but their organization certainly is.
Not sure they are going to stay after march, but its certainly a very good boost for the projects.

Look at it this way. It took 5500 members to beat usOriginally Posted by sierra_bound
It should be noted that ESL now has more than 5,500 members on their WCG team and they still can't match our output. Even if they did, they would still be more than a billion points behind us.

Do they have some incentive to crunch like easynews? As opposed to unmatched dedication, hardwares and skillz like those of us at XS?

Well it took 5500, also, this is a key question, how many will stay with the project?
With all the grp jumps, there is the "I JUST JOINED" hype, but there is always those that come off the high and don't stick with the project, no matter the team.
