    Can we have a reminder on the B-T front page with, say, a couple of day's warning? If we do I'll endeavour to try and help out (if my housemates don't kill me for burning through electricity!).

    Also, it's been like a couple of years since I folded - could someone also post a super-quick guide on how to get the max points out of an overclocked SB "K" on Win7? I hear you can get silly PPD, like >20k, with the right WUs and config...

    SMP client, running 24/7, with -bigadv flag, bonus scheme enabled [you'll need a passkey, and to complete 10 SMP A3 units {need not be -bigadv units}, and to complete 80% of the units you are assigned, before the bonus kicks in. There doesn't seem to be a way of detecting if you have achieved all these except by looking at the points you get for each WU returned].

    Don't use the Help section - use the official instructions. They are here, or you can get them by clicking on the book icon on the download page. Print them out and read them through a couple of times before you start. Tick the items as you do each one.

    Awesome, the new point system should make it the closest and most competitive CC to date! I don't know about the rest of you but I'm going to throw everything I've got at it this year! :D

    OOps I think thats wrong !! You put Custombitchimps where you put your own Moniker and leave 35947 alone, you also change the passkey to the Custom bit chimps one, correct me if I am wrong captain Coolamasta :thumb:

    I believe the averages were taken in a period that ended before he started folding for us?

    Nice one Matt, will be a VERY interesting race this year :D

    Thanks bud, the more the better :thumb:

    You need to put "CustomBitChimps" exactly the same as I put here as the name and team says the same as 35947, I will put up a quick how-to guide and sort out the passkey in time for the challenge :thumb:

    Spot on Taff :thumb:

    There could be an issue here as hes not been included in our 5 month average PPD, its been flagged on the CC forum as hes producing silly high amounts of points, need to find out more about this and will report back...
