Maybe that should be the "Folding 500" :clap:

After about 2 1/2 years of dedicated folding I finally made it into the top 500 folders worlwide. while this may not be an official milestone... it is one I have been looking forward to for a long time. It seems the closer you get to the top , the slower it goes. I think it has taken 5 months to get from 518 to 499. Well here I am ! I think I will have a nice cold one to celebrate.:beer::cheers: :celebrate


Scott


Edit...oops. I thought I put this in milestones. Can someone move it ?

    Awesome work Scott! Once you get past the people that don't live and breathe folding, working your way up in the ranks takes extra long.

    I remember when I broke the "Fortune 500".... it was a good day. Just think, you are in the top 1/2 percent of active users or in the top 0.09 percent of all users. That's VERY impressive!!! Congrats!!!

    Congratulations on your "unofficial" MAJOR milestone, Scott.:thumbsup:

    The higher you go, the harder it gets which makes those milestones all the more sweeter.

    Have one on us, it's well deserved.:cheers:

    Well done, Scott.
    It seems the closer you get to the top , the slower it goes.
    It used to be my place of work had several Dell Optiplex machines. As the de facto sysadmin (no one else knew what they were doing), I was able to legally install F@H on all the office machines, including the laptops. It was so much fun watching my score jump leaps and bounds every day. That's where I got the "Reign of Terror" notation below my avatar. Alas, I left that job (retired from Army service) near a year and a half ago. Production is really good, but like you wrote, competition at the higher levels is steep indeed.

    But again, a well deserved congratulations to you.

    Congratulations, Scott. I'm fighting to get back into the top 800. I was there briefly a while back, lost a few machines, now find that I'm lucky to move up even a few notches a week.

    Great job! :woowoo:
