I think I have to quit this folding thing, it doesn't work anymore, and its too far in to be high up in the points anymore. I havnn't turned in a wu in like a week, and then it was only like 50 points or something.

As you can see here: http://folding.extremeoverclocking.com/user_summary.php?s=&u=101629 about December 12, I believe it was the 11 though, is when things took a wrong turn, and only have gradually got worse. I have the same cpus running the same amount of time (100%) and yet look at those drops. :faint:

    I've seen a drop in production but a massive rise in points per wu. Highest one from the last few days was worth 600 points.

    ALright,
    LiLbRo, Yagga, & anyone else, lets switch to folding for say Diablos1 er something it has a pitiful record and obviously is non operational, or If ya want me to fold for ya, then just say the word. Just don't quit!

    Try to remember what those work units are too, its not about the points, they're just a fun addition.

    hmmm... bribary... works for me, but I have to say that I was consistantly getting 240-340 point wus that would finish withing 2.5 days each, now it takes like 3 weeks for wus worth 50 points, very disappointing indeed.

    I've noticed a slowdown in my points too and it seems to start for me around the first of the year. http://folding.extremeoverclocking.com/user_summary.php?s=&u=13157

    You can check your logs to see which workunits you are getting and check to see how many points are assigned to the workunit here:
    http://vspx27.stanford.edu/psummary.html

    I have been getting the 1137 protein for the last three workunits on this box and they are worth 241 each. I've already done two today, with each one taking about 12 and a half hours.

    If anyone knows how to get the higher value workunits, I'd be interested to know. Check out project number 1140. Those are worth 600 points! I could use a few of those!!
    You can also check you log files for which server you get your assignments from (by I.P. address) and check the project page to see which projects come from the server you're getting your workunits from. IT would be nice to be able to choose your server, and get the WU's with big points, but I guess all of the projects are important. The points just sorta give us an incentive to work on them.
    Regards,

    I have officially retired, but, like Michael Jordan does, I still could do some later.

    Hey, what happened to Gnome, did he retire, too?

    *I hope this doesn't effect the decision of new comers, as they may persuade me in starting up again.
