I've suggested that already, but at that time, saps was still talking to catalyst about the team and officiality. Any new word saps? Are we the official sharkyextreme team? :confused:Quote:

oops...must have missed it! my bad. and i think we can assume that we are official now...especially since we seem to have gotten the go-ahead on the custom avatar competition.Quote:

An interesting thing happened to me today I overstressed by cpu and caused it to drop a WU I was 84% done with. I was enraged at myself, but when I went to the log file it said results sent. Sure enough about 30 minutes later my score had gone up 45 points 84% of the 53 point WU I was working on. So I basically got credit for the percentage of the work I did without completing the whole WU.
This may or may not occur depending on Cat's decision. For now all we have are sig links. Those have been rather effective thus far IMO. Word of mouth seems to be catching on though as every day new members are emerging with stats on our Stanford page. One thing I can and will do is drop and thread in the CPU/OC forum our single largest forum on the topic of the Great Crusader. The OC Crusaders are such an established concept within SF. Furthermore, there is no more noble a cause than the crusade against protein misfolding. I won't publish this thread until Sunday the 9th. However, when I do I'm expecting; between increased awareness of the Folding Team, knowledge of the contest itself, and humbly the small bit of influence I have within SF; to see the Folding Team double in size and cpu's this next week.Quote:

Yes we're official per se in that Cat is allowing us to bear the Moniker of Sharky Forums Folding Team. However, I am intentionally leaving the word Official off of any doings with our group.Quote:

Its nice to see you guys sharing my enthusiasm for this project. Your suggestions are very much appreciated. Please do understand however, that I am limited in the sense that I must do as I am allowed by Catalyst. He in turn is accountable to another himself. Decisions regarding third party distributing computing can be slow in coming and may not always please some of us.
Conquer On
HERE's a interesting link that shows the teams progress and projection.
"Team Xtreme" my butt. :pQuote:
we're gunna need some more people asap.. the other teams production rates around us are starting to have a slight, maybe 15 degrees, upward angle to 'em ;)

if you've never seen or heard of the show, they record actual prank calls, then act them out with puppets.
I hope it not a kids show!
Just downloaded it and set it all up. Didn't see this thread until I saw Kaotik's sig :p I Doubt I'll add as many WU's as most of you, but I figure each CPU can help ;)
:D I'm doin what I can to get people into the sharky forums folding team. :)Quote:

Where did your posts go? I deleted them. If they were OT.
We almost have 3K within the past 24 hours, I have a feeling soon we'll be in the green over at ExtremeOCing
Um I joined but under the screename I've started using more often --judasmachine.
Just thought I'd clear that up in case you were wondering who that judasmachine guy was who was folding in your team's name.
Yeah somewhere we need a list of who's who on the Folding Team. Obviously if your SF name is your folding name we know you. Its people who's names don't match that we need to identify.
Thanks for joining purewire.
