OFFICIAL Holloween Race Roster & Details

[DAK1640]

Put me in team whiskey, please. BTW, isn't it spelled "Halloween" ?

That depends upon how much Vodka you drink when you are updating the stats and creating new posts.

[WFO]

Ahhh yes, the secret weapons....
Hmmm..... wouldn't know anything about them.... no sirrrreeeee

WMDs? Wouldn't know anything about 'em. Aren't those classified???

Coo-Coo if those are your secret weapons we'll be lucky if you are even conscious when the race starts.

[DAK1640]

I have read through this thread - its pretty fuuny!

I could't stand not having a decent graphics card (8800GT is in for repair)

So........................ I have just spent £280 on graphics cards and have been given the clear to use as much electricity as I want.

Cards will be here end of the week along with a motherboard and CPU to go with them. I'm not telling you what the actual parts are but I'll give a few sneaky photos when they arrive.

I believe this competition is starting the 26th October right? Who wants me on their team

We do, we do. we do...

[DAK1640]

Things re looking fun now...Still have a heavy hitter unassigned...RR...I have updated the OP with current assignments. Let the secret weapons deploy. I myself have a new 1.5L bottle of Grey Goose on reserve.

[Riggs]

Noted...

Why not grey goose? hehehehehe I'll help out with my GX2. Might need help getting 2 instances of F@h to show up. :s

Ahhh, my old friend. If you join whiskey, we can quickly teach you how to get your dual GPU to run 2 instances...

There are still quite a few folders not assigned with good ppd's. This can still go any way for the three teams...EVEN WITHOUT secret weapon deployment.

[skycrane]

id love to have a secret weapon to deploy, but ill be lucky to get my small farm up and running

maybe i can get some help from a few team mates and a bottle of your best blue label....

[Marvin_The_Martian]

Anarki should be on Whiskey Just because I want them to win

[Kondik]

IMO if Tango has nothing up its sleeve they are going to get rocked. There are a lot of big names on Whiskey and Foxtrot.

I love to see the weapons come out for these things and watch as everyone's electricity bills go through the roof.

Lad ... I'm like twice in there, I know I love whisky [ It's whisky not whiskey ! ] but two Kondiks walking on the same planet = doom.

[DAK1640]

Still haven't heard from:
direowls
road_runner
Rmc[Az]
kevinbo03
BugsBMD
hipno650
enroscado
DrJay
socketman
to name a few...Anyone wishing to PM (solicit) them into the race ???

[Anarki]

My, ehem, nukes are arriving Friday morning.

I need to test each individual one for "maxium damage" then they will be set to go.

My poor old Corsair 520W wont know what hit it

[skycrane]

how many ppd do you need to be considered a heavy hitter.. ???

[MaK2000]

I would say 20-25K+. Last race some guys were pushing over 70K if I remember.

[Marvin_The_Martian]

That's about my estimate, shows a great amount of dedication. Hope to get there as well, have to if I want to creep towards the top20 lol atm I'm going down

Synth and you are a week away, great work you two

[MaK2000]

I had to put the petal down if I was going to catch Synth at 1mil. I let him get too far ahead. I have an 8800GTX, three 9800GTXes, a GTX260, and a 9800GX2 going right now but all the card except the 8800GTX are going to have to take a break here soon. Those systems are needed for other stuff. They were idle for a little while so I put them to some good use.

[Marvin_The_Martian]

Well that's good news for Synth ( and me :P ) but I hope they become 'available' again soon

[Shadowtester]

My guess those most likely will be WMD's for the race come hook or crook

[Knight203]

OoOoOoO Can I be on Foxtrot ? And I think there has been an error in the OP cuz I'm listed twice

Even if you can continue the pace you're folding at now... EOC says I'll beat you to 1M.

You are lucky though. After upgraded my folding farm to the new core, my ppd is 950 per card, which shouldn't be. Folding times suck. I think it'll correct itself in a day. You have that one day to make up the distance between us. GO GO GO!

[MaK2000]

They have my PPD as 10K less than it has been lately...

Anarki,
Join Foxtrot - if for no other reason than your avatar is...um....compelling!!

[DAK1640]

Take a Look at the OP of this thread. Wow to MikeB12 and his creative talent. He has been moved upstairs to a windowed office, gets his stapler back, and get a high back chair for his contribution. This isn't brown-nosing, he's bucking for the regional VP's job...Now if he can only get his tardiness under control...

[DeanZ]

I'm so glad it hasn't started yet...my sis shut off my computer at 10am...i dont get home till 10pm...so many points lost

Read my signature again.... thanks.

Edit: I could just try to ignore all this BS, but nah why should I if others seem to want to bring everything back up again? Which creativity? Which idea's? Better yet, who's idea's?

If you want to flamebait let's do it good then ok DAK?

Edit2:

Kondik told me this post isn't clear enough so I'd have to make it even more clear. The contests where my idea DAK not Mike's I might not have persued everything I proposed and talked about through pm's ( among others with you, which makes it increasingly harder to ignore you're keeping this up just to break that #1 rule about no personal attacks or flamebaiting ) but I can post all those conversations here on the forum if I get permission from an Admin to do so and if you want to keep seeding doubt on where the origin of this team's newly found activity leis.

Want to have me remember you how DEAD this team was when I came here? I'm not saying I brought it back to live on my own, but I hope to have had atleast a big enough part in it even if I been less publicly active which btw I also don't really think is true if you look through both our post histories.

I don't want to get anyone in trouble, it will most likelt result in some mod removing my posts as I am breaking the rules , but enough is enough ok? Either just drop the Mike praising or start doing it for things he should deserve the praise for and if I'm not mistaken that leaves him far from empty handed so why even try to make it more then it already is?

Gentlemen:
I don't usually act as a moderator in this section.
I always stayed out of this and pythagoras took care of things.
Tonight I will try and respond as I think he would.

Who started what and when isn't important my friends.
The work matters, ego's and "ataboys" don't.
I have learned over time that arguments over small issues only serve to drive a wedge between members of a team just as they do in real life.
My suggestion to you is to ignore the little things that you differ on and concentrate on the things you agree on.
If something bothers you talk to that other person in PM but as a friend and trying to resolve the issue.
I have many friends here that I don't always agree with but I try not to make issues out of small matters.
Who generated the comments that got things started doesn't matter.
That you guys got together and did work together as a team is what mattered.
Think on this and deal with one another as friends and the little issues tend to lose their importance.
The work and the friendships are what truly matter.
Thanks for reading.
Dave
