EOC Color Change

mmonnin

With Stanford changing the point values of all the Work Units, the colors determined by daily production are scewed towards the higher production colors. Jason has redone the colors to balance to even out with the huge production increase.

Well, I finally got around to changing the colors... Team points increased 100%, and individual points increased about 65-70%... I think haysdb (from SPCR) was about the only non-EOC person to speak up with their thoughts on the points change.

Team color codes are as follows: 0 / 1+ / 3k+ / 6k+ / 20k+ / 40k+ / 60k+ / 100k+
User color codes are as follows: 0 / 1+ / 125+ / 250+ / 500+ / 900+ / 1.4k+ / 2k+

I think tonight I'm going to try and implement the code to start recording active users, so that a chart can be made to show how the team is doing over time... I have a to-do thread that's slowly growing with things (since I can't keep track of them all in my head).

I've been considering putting up a PayPal dontation button... I put in a lot of hard hours of work, but my biggest reward is just that you guys get a kick out of the stats. I can't even begin to count the posts at various forums that I read when someone starts mentioning their "color" in the stats, and how proud they are to have reached it, and everyone knows exactly what they are talking about. Seriously though, maybe I'm just too humble a person to ask for donations, but if you really want to help out, please visit some of the google advertisers in the banner across the top. It pays based on performance (i.e. clicks), and it's actually kinda cool to visit some of the non-computer related advertisers. I found a couple sites that sell some really awesome french doors and ceiling fans... lol.

Rather than just a single thread, I created a dedicated forum section just for discussing the folding stats. You do need to be a member to post (you can browse as a guest), registration is free and only takes a minute to sign up.

Other than that... who's excitied about all the new things coming out in this summer? We got ATI launching the X800 next week... Retail video cards should hopefully start appearing by the end of the month or early June (if all goes well). Intel is going to be releasing their Alderwood & Grantsdale chipsets which means support for DDR2 (finally) and some PCI Express action! Lastly we can't forget AMD and the long awaited socket 939 FX chips and boards... It's gonna be a fun summer, thats for sure.

Oh yeah, don't forget to visit the EOC Deals Page for some excellent deals on computer & electronics (and sometimes other things).

We have had a few threads around here where somoene says that they have changed a different color and a lot of us knew what that meant. Thanks Jason for the great stats.:)

I didnt know they have their own deals page either. Some nice things there. Chec
