BDR, _I_ for one appreciate whoever you fold for.. I wasn't implying that you should switch teams, I was just lamenting the loss of all that folding power
It's the cause, not the competition, that matters.

But it's the competition that gets the passions engaged!
primesuspect said I gave a KR7-A to TheSMJ in a pseudo-SMx type of thing: I told him I'd give him the mobo as long as it folded He said it's working great and will be folding soon. Thanks SMJ!
Hey man, you ever had to tell me to get it folding! I'm all for pushing myself into perm. yellow (and boosting the rest of the team).
It'll be running my old Duron 900, which isn't much, but it's better than nothing for the time being. Once I get a new job I'll look into getting it an upgrade.
Yes, Icrontic has their own team, I'm happy for them. Hopefully it will create new folders out of people who aren't currently running the project. They have a lot of visitors to their site.
Simmer down there, GH. They forwarded members to us for 3 months, which was plenty long enough for anyone interested in continuing with our team to find us. I'm just very pleased that they did that for us.
On a more constructive note, my XP 2100+ OC'd to 2700+ speed will go in the secondary rig tonight to replace the stock 2500+, and the 2500+ goes in the primary rig OC'd to 3200+ speed. I just hope the electrical system in the house holds up...

We're a tech site that happens to have a folding team, not the other way around. Anyone who joins the cause, regardless of team, is doing a good deed. Are we losing sight of that fact? Yes, points make it fun and interesting, but ultimately this isn't a competition. I wish people would stop thinking like it is.

But I'm concerned that they may steal our members
Relax! It's not like Team S-M hasn't gained members previously folding for other teams.
GHoosdum said But I'm concerned that they may steal our members... those who may be more loyal to the name "Icrontic" than to "Team 93"
Oh c'mon, no one is going to be "stealing" members... I'm sure they frown on that as much as we do. People make their own decision which team to fold for. If someone switches teams it's kinda disappointing, but if they are still folding... *shrug* Besides, who'd want to leave this awesome team we have???
The point of this thread is to discuss our grand BLITZKRIEG to get more people folding!! Icrontic will be doing the same by expanding the cause to their membership. Let's focus on getting more people folding!!
Look for me pumping out some points in the next few days. Not enough to stave off a2j from beating me... but I look at that as a bonus. In fact, I'd like to see more on my threat list.
Anyway, like I said earlier, I'm adding the Barton at 3200+ speed and adding 400MHz of processor speed to my secondary rig. Soon I might be adding another XP1700+ also.

Are you going back to BitBender, or somewhere else?

Makes me regret standing up for you at BBT when you got firewalled out.
I won't make that mistake again.

I simply stated that you have switched between a few different teams before and seem to even out your folding between them.....
And then I politely asked if you were going to go back to folding for Team BBT.....
Oh well, i'll just go away I suppose.

Watch out! They aren't all Intel's (some of them CAN actually fold)
//Note: This doesn't include the new MSI K7D Master that's coming in the mail along with 2x2500 Barton's
And as stated before its cause that ultimately counts & a bit of friendly competion along the way is a good thing.

Nice use of the rant smiley though
:kneel:
I've got one of those coming as well
Now to get some Bartons (I have 2 x 1600+'s to kick me off)

It all comes out in the wash.

More power to you, a2j! You've got my respect.
And with the points I've posted in the last two days, I wouldn't exactly call myself "worthy" :banghead:
Keep teh BLITZ going!!
Soon I hope to get transfered to our helpdesk, then the real blitz will come. All new machines I touch will most likely get it on for 93.
By the way, check out DanG's phenomenally simple, yet amazingly effective idea:

There's gotta be a hundred ways to make this work for the blitz.
