i think a few guys from the neighbouring countries, which were asked had no time and unfortunately we are limited to 8 teams, so we couldn't get all we wanted.

but i'm sure in the next event different countries/guys will be invited/participate.

Hi all! We Finns are in room 001 in Zipser hotel. That must be a sign for us

Where are other participants?

GL

But don't place stake on that 001...I randomly drew CPU #1 in GOOC in LA, and it didn't stop me from placing last.

Seems that we have some winners . Congratulations Spain

[tiborrr]

#1 Team Spain: 7.406s
#2 Team Slovenia & Team Finland: 7.422s

Wonderful competition, thank you all!

[dinos22]

oh no i missed it
congrats to winners

[dinos22]

is there more going on???? vantage?

[tiborrr]

Vantage:
#1 Team Greece: 41.9k+ (4x 5870 @ LN2)
#2 Team Finland: 38k (4x 5870 @ LN2)
#3 Team Austria: 37k+ (4x 5870 @ air)
#4 Team Slovenia 33k+ (2x 295GTX @ stock)

Vantage competition was a great experience. A lot of HW sharing happened in order to obtain the best possible score, no jelaousy, only true benching spirit. Team Greece benched only for 20 minutes. If we would have another hour I am sure Vantage WR would fall, I am sure!

[dinos22]

nice work from Greece there......what sort of clocks were they doing?
