    Darn, no more over nite coups. Looks like the train finally got me for good.

    So long Lord_Night. :wave: Until I upgrade a few of my rigs.

    Miinkie: You shall be intresting to catch,

    TheGr81: I am in full warp power for now, with Weedo in the slip stream behind me.

    The Midnight train is rolling along at high speed.

    I just hit a brick wall. Those 2 huge 600 point gromacs work units I'm currently crunching both had to start over after some funky stuff was happening with the power... It kinda faded out a few time for like half a second. With no UPS on this computer, my WU's got corrupted. It took this computer DAYS to get halfway through those things, and now they're back at the start.

    Weedo, Lord_Night, you shall have no challenge in passing me. I hope I never get one of these again. They take ~100 megs each. :banghead:

    Sorry to hear that TheGr81. That has happened to me several times, just as you described. It's a real bummer. It always happened to me on those 14xx Gromacs which took about 8 days to fold on my best rig. I just had to keep on folding through it. I fold in fear of it happening again at anytime, but I'm on a roll right now.

    There's still a little breathing room between us. Keep on keeping on.

    *Weedo puts on garlic necklace to ward off the evil big Gromacs*

    *Weedo does Tinker dance to cause it rain Tinkers upon him and TheGr81*

    TheGr81 both me and Weedo had that for several days at the same time. high end Gromacs that killed our rigs on folding time. even the dedicated 3ghz one I have. those things just suck the life out of any rig.

    may the tinkers rain on us all......

    share the garlic Weedo.....

    Wishing everyone a funtastic new year :thumbsup: .

    Lord_Night is pulling up pretty fast and looks like before end of Jan i will be in his slipstream. Leaps and bounds to you, but miinkie aint going down without a fight .......

    ... applies turbo-boost, high octane fuel and watches his rigs smoke :rarr:

    Looks like I will be able to resume the good fight with Lord_Night JUST behind me. These 2 WU's are projected to finish tomorrow, within 10 minutes of each other. Another 1200 points will separate us... BUT, between HL2 and WoW on my ONLY folding rig... It's only a matter of time.

    Wow, haven't been here in awhile. Man, I used to have so much and it all disappeared :bawling:

    I'll catch some of you. Someday. Maybe. I hope... oh screw it.

    Good fight all. Lord_Night your catch up time changes so drastically anytime I look in. Mid-day may be 750 days then :hiding: its few hundred days less.

    My Prescott 3.2HT is going down hopefully for a few hrs only to convert HD's to SATA. But see you when it's back online

    My 24 hr average has exceeded 400 for the first time and my rigs are steaming full speed ahead. :smokin:

    I feel like declaring a good old Texas style jihad. But against who? :scratch:


    Hmmm.

    Well it finally happened. So now I'm back climbing up the charts. Today I beat out Omega65. I think my next goal is to try and get into the teens. That might be a while though...

    ME! :vimp:

    I mean... uh...

    Well I've managed to get my brother and friend addicted to World of Warcraft (and there's still HL2DM) so there's really nothing stopping me from getting squished by folding trains and Weedos. :eek: There's no chance my computer will finish the next two (600 point AGAIN) gromacs in 11 days (projected takeover) when it only folds 6 hours a day... If at all. :bawling:

    Wow... for the first time since about 6 months ago, gaming>folding for my poor processor even though it stays on at night, since my bro sometimes plays WoW while I sleep. :( It sucks having the only computer in the house even capable of playing these games.

    :screwed:

    Funny how my points for the week are more than yours Lord_Knight, but my 24hr average is less. :scratch:

    Captain to engineer: SCOTTY I need more POWER,

    Scotty: (in scottish accent) Im givan her all she's got Cap'n. she can't take much more, she'll blow the crystal chamber..

    Captain.. Dammit Scotty I need more power......

    Weedo, I dont know what going on but my systems seem to be goofing off somewhere. that little over a 1000 point hold is nothing in this game.......

    I lit my afterburners (bought my son an Xbox so now he games on that and leaves his system, my 4rth folding rig to spend more time folding). :rarr:

    Weedo to Lord Night: Are you there? Have I sped up or are you slowing down? I seem to be closing the gap. You need to throw a few more dylithium crystals on the fire. Otherwise, prepare to get smoked by the Weedman.

    Maybe you're just crunching a few of those big 600 pointers and are just about to throw down on me... BIGTIME!!! :eek:

    *Weedo starts to sqiurm at the thought*
  • edited January 2005
    Well the latest jihad is complete and time to set sights on a new one. t1rhino is out of the picture and barely even folding so he wouldn't be fair. Looks like I have a primesuspect to shoot for, no pun intended.

    Here it is: Jihad on the primesuspect. I'm gunning for your #3 spot. Prepare to fight!


    Just a small point to ponder: Would someone be damned to hell for declaring jihad on a buddhist?

    running a 15 day projection shows you 2 ranks ahead, :bawling:

    P.S. There is no "K" in my nick by the way..

    P.P.S I dreally have no idea how to tell the lil point makers form the 600 ones.
