Join the SatelliteGuys Folding@Home Team!

[Foxbat]

AOA Forums is going down today. We should move into the #99 spot sometime this afternoon.:up

Hours away now... Estonia is in the depressive-phase of their points swing, so we won't see them knock us out of 100! 99 Teams to go!

 

[dmendenjr]

congrats to sat guys team, we have hit #99!!!

(sadly, I've yet to post a point today - grumble grumble)

#99 Woo Hoo. WTG SatGuys Folding Team.:up Penny Arcade is up next.

We Did It! (with apologies to the Colbert Nation)

99! Amazing! I was looking at the first couple of pages of this thread and we were so stoked to be in the top 5,000, then the top 4,500, and 4,000, etc. The number of points that the #100 team had back then was about 3/4 of what Scorpion.sting has now. From April 2007:

5262th place:Team SatelliteGuys.US, 38,160 pts, 130 WUs
5000th place:Team Newburyport Public Schools, 42,006 pts, 447 WUs
4000th place:Team dan501, 61,602 pts, 1,268 WUs
3000th place:Team isonews, 99,383 pts, 1,930 WUs
2000th place:Team CF2M, 180,222 pts, 1,523 WUs
1000th place:Team stratocruiser, 452,106 pts, 2,736 WUs
500th place:Team kruck, 1,132,015 pts, 8,593 WUs
100th place:Team klfteam1, 9,794,643 pts, 47,943 WUs​

Just about 2.5 weeks until Penny Arcade falls to the SatGuys Folding Team.

Looks like we might be seeing a boost in daily production from our new team members. Thanks for joining!

What's happening to the Scorpion? Production is way down. I was surprised as heck to see I was #2 on the SatGuys list.

Yes, thank everyone who's joined recently.

Also, I posted a while back about Scorpion, but I don't think he answered.

There was a patch last week that caused all my computers to have to reboot. I wonder if he was out of town and all his computers updated?

Not all of them, for sure, but maybe half. Black Tuesday strikes again...

I also see that our Top 20 Folders are all over 1,000 ppd, too.

Two weeks away from 80,000,000 points!!!

Still here guys. My home is all electric so when it gets colder, I turn rigs off to offset the heat bill.

Fold on

Sorry for the very late reply...I dont check private messages very often....But to answer your question, this is what I have

Machine 1

Q6600 CPU
2 - 8800GS GPU's

Machine 2

Q6600 CPU
1 - 8800GT GPU

Machine 3

Q9550 CPU
2 - GTX 260 GPU's

Machine 4

E6600 CPU
9800GT GPU

Machine 5 (my daughters computer at her house)

Q6600 CPU

All rigs listed here are at my home except my daughter's.
My production has went down lately because my home is all electric and when the bill goes up so far, I shut down machines. With all machines running, I can produce 40,000 pts per day.

Looks like SatGuys will start the New Year in the #98 position. Just over two weeks until we pass Penny Arcade.:up

 

[8bitbytes]

Hey! I follow our current team points on folding.extremeoverclocking.com and I noticed scorpion.sting showed up on my overtake list!

Except it predicts at the current rate it will take 28.3 YEARS to do so!

Funny, I could see that in the Summer, but in the winter I figure all that waste heat from Folding proteins should drop your need for additional electric heat. My Macs never got all that warm which is why I keep them in the bedroom (quiet as can be, too). They help keep us warm, but not much. The noisemakers are all downstairs in the basement where it's cool.

Anyway, with you running at half-speed, I have a chance to keep my #3 ranking in the team after I pass Plazzman in a couple of weeks.

In the summer, my air is not on all the time. In winter heat is.
