Chimps progress

Ten Million and climbing.

Keep that "Thin Red Line" charging!

 

Hells yeah! Why stop now?!

Thanks to ddforrester and iCiT for their words of encouragement!

 

Fascinating - what clients are you running on the tumble dryer and microwave mate, and what ppd do you get from them?

 

Is it tripping an RCD on the circiut? It might be worth checking the earth leakage, since some PC PSU's can 'leak', and running a number of them on the same ring can add up to a trip-out problem.

 

That is quite the call right there. A long shot maybe, because it would take a lot of leakage therefore a lot of PSU's to cause an RCD to trip, though it is definately worth a look.

 

The tumble drier completes a WU in about 45 mins, and the microwave in 10. The server doesn't have enough work for them to run continuously, so I can't calculate the PPD.

 

the rules as i understood was that each team had to reach 20mil before it was over.
so come on 7th place

 

Looks like the next update will see us pass those [H]ardApes, then there's no stopping us 'til we hit 20 Mil! Well done so far everyone, and keep it up!

 

Nice

Im trying to add another 10k to my 30k on a machine I got back into play yesterday but the harddrive died on it lastnight after running for a whole 7 hours lol, have found an old 40gb sata which im going to try and get stuck in today

 

I woke up this AM and checked the stats. It looks like you're rejecting the historically coveted monkey paw. WayToFold Custom PC & bit-tech! Nice pass!

 

Congrats to all involved on the overtake.
We need to keep the pressure on as they may stage a comeback

 

Cheers, we don't want to finish last on our first Chimp Challenge!

Well done team we've moved up to 7th!

YES! Well done everyone, this is a really amazing achievement, and a great demonstration of the grit and determination that we all have here at CPC & Bit-Tech! There's definately no stopping us now, we'll go all the way to 20 Million and take 7th place in our first Chimps Challenge.



Just an interesting note; I checked the console for the first folding card that I ever bought earlier today (heavily overclocked 8800GTS), and it has completed an astounding 350 WU's since I started GPU2 folding in February of this year. That's a lotta units for one little card!

 

Sweet Ditto Sentiments to all involved. It would be good if we could still get some more chimps to leave them in our wake!

 

Could be something odd going on with the stats servers, but it looks as if CPChimps production just leaped to ~550,000ppd

 

Probably something to do with the stats, this happened before.

 

I'd just like to congratulate the chimps for overtaking me

(all my rigs are folding for cpchimps right now, not me)

 

It's a strange milestone, isn't it - overtaking yourself!

 

Good to see some official support for the Chimp Challenge. Just a shame that many of the Top 20 producers didn't follow suit and take part. Maybe next your we will make it more competitive.

 

I think we all learned quite a few lessons this year, so will be much better equipped when the challenge comes round next time. Still, we shouldn't give up now... we can still at least finish this year's challenge in 7th, rather than 8th place if we work together.
