The 2013 Chimps Challenge is OVER!!! 4th Place

Set my i5 750 @ 3.8Ghz folding.. only 10000ppd but hope it helps.

 

+1

 

may be late with the updates and may have to back off on the folding for a day or so... real life has reared it's ugly head and kicked me squarely in the balls...

 

Will we be seeing you on the "What's ruining your life right now" thread?


Seriously, though, sorry to hear that, hope the outlook improves soon.

 

no point, get ignored and/or laughed at enough IRL

3. EVGA - ==

9. OCAU - -1

in other news the grumblings about the format have started... However I won't go into specifics while the race is still ongoing...

 

I think it is working about right - a battle to decide first, second, and third, a battle to avoid the last place, and some jostling in between. I'm not totally convinced we are safe from an HWC overtake.

Everybody keep on going!

 

personally, I agree and i think some of it is argument for the sake of argument... but hey ho, lets finish this year's race first before worrying about future ones...

OOOOOOOONWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARDS!!!

 

Huzzahh​

 

And Huzzah and Tally-Ho to you too sir!

 

It feels good to back for a while and to see so many of my old stalwart teammates still contributing so much.

Cobbling together rigs that haven't been used for months has been an interesting experience but leccy bills be damned during the CC

The standings at heading into the second to last day are:

1. OCF - 378m race points
2. VGT - 367m
3. EVGA - 326m
   [*]BIT - 217m
4. HWC - 202m
5. OCN - 193m
6. TPU - 167m
7. TSC - 164m

We're almost there... 4th is as good as ours barring any last day mega points drops for HWC...

but... keep it up gents... better take 4th decisively rather than just coast to the end...

 

If my math is right, the next hourly update will put the teams combined [non-race] point total at over 1 billion points... which I think is pretty good... if all the points folded in this year's CC were combined into one team it would be enough to put the team in the top 50

... we'll just gloss over the fact 1/3 of that total is EVGA on their own... still... congrats to them and all involved...

 

Nice to see we are holding 4th place, great work by all keep it up

You know you miss us mate What are you contributing towards these days anyway bud?

 

I'm afraid I have had to drop out the CC today, getting windows replaced in the house.

Dust+ High voltage motors do not mix with PC's!

By the time this is all done the CC will be over and done with! Hopefully my 433,249 points will have helped!

 

Understandable, thanks for your contribution

 

Whats the finish ETA looking like?

 

I'll have several other computers ready for the next chimps challenge as I can install it on the works machines ( muha ha ha ) and have a spare few gfx cards knocking around.

 

The finish is 20:00 BST tomorrow [23/4]
