    on a side note:
    team 36362 did almost 700k yesterday.... I bet we do over 700k everyday during this comp..
    if someone wants to take the responsibility of posting this info in the team milestones thread, I bet the team breaks some records in the coming weeks.

    You need to buy bigger heatsinks and quieter cooling fans so you can't really hear the system anymore

    That's funny. I can't fall asleep if it's dead silent.

    Falling asleep with the computer running in the background is pretty easy just need to practice some and you will be able to do it with out any problems.

    First you need a bottle of your favorite whiskey then after finishing that off you should be able to fall asleep without any problems with the computer running in the background. After you do that for a couple of weeks straight you should be able to fall asleep with pretty much anything running in the room. We won't talk about turning you into a heavy drinker that's just a foreseeable side effect of the procedure which you will need to work out on your own. All I can say is bottoms up and sleep tight

    I used to have to have like metal playing in order to fall asleep. I guess it is a good thing I have never had any sleeping issues. I grew up with a computer in my room.

    +1 for the whiskey treatment. It work miracles.

    Whisky treatment would cost me 480 Euros per month, that's sick
    I just have bat ears ...

    If I manage to fall asleep completly exhausted and the PC in backround... I'll wake up sooner and with a terrible headache [ not an hangover ]

    Later maybe after I move to a different flat with more than one room
    But for now ... Kondik Sleeps = PC Sleeps

    Wow! Everybody's really punchin' it. I'm gonna get a little boost myself, but.... I had it planned for next week. Why is this thing starting in 2 days? Isn't Halloween on the 28th?


    Generalizations are, in general, wrong.

    yeah, it;s running on a sunday to sunday eoc points week... we could have made it start midnight oct 31, then run the monthly eoc points schedule. in fact I think the next comp we have, the monthly schedule points scoring method is the best option.. it makes it much easier on the score keep. that way we just run it from the 1st to the 31st and eoc always has a running points total... but the consensus was we didn't want the comp to go thru the holiday on thanksgiving for people that will be out of town or people that have their rigs at school and will be shut down beginning wed night before thanksgiving. so that kind of removes the monthly schedule option for this comp. we start the week of halloween which is sunday sept 26 (or midnight sat the 25th). halloween falls on fri of the start week.

    but this one is a weekly comp. sunday-sunday points. runs 4 weeks. this one actually is ending in the middle of the week before thanksgiving during the 5th week. but that's no big deal, I'll just grab everyones points standings for that week during the same 3 hr update gap on wed night or thanksgiving morning. it'll just be a sun - wed cumulative week.. that's a month off though so dont think about it yet.

    So do you think you can stay awake for 30 days on Red Bull, 5 hour Energy Drinks, and lots of candy.

    Thank you Mike, I am so glad you covered. I was prolly wrong to have the pretty little office tart hide it. I didn't mean for her finger prints to be on it. Sure hope she doesn't get fired! Oh BTW, had did your meeting with the Regional VP go today? I did mention it to you yesterday didn't I ???

    Huh, now we are talking about stuff I understand finally...All this F@H stuff has got me so confused...What exactly does F@H stand for anyway?

    Also, How is ThunderDuck & Road-Runner choking down their penalties anyway?
