(Vanity) FreeRepublic Folding@Home Project Update (We're in the Top 1,200!)
Free Republic Folders Stats Page ^ | 12/25/2005 | me

OK, new thread for the next week.

First, a big shout out to the SETI members who have added CPUs to the effort. Remember, its Team 36120, NOT Team 0.

Next, congrats to all for bumping our team up to 104 processors and 76 users. We have a number of new users in the team, with Clara Lou, fzx12345, SamfromLivingston, brityank, manwiththehands and Tami all popping onto the hit list this week.

Malsua, uriah and Ken in Texas are solidly in the top 10. Malsua is continuing to add systems and now accounts for 10% of the FR total. Great job!

Free Republic Folding@Home Stats Page

On the global front, Free Republic Folders is now listed at # 1196. We are poised to overtake (today):

carletonu (maybe in MN?)
Helms-Deep
2*ian
Dynadues
Soluchis
Greece and soon the
University of Pennsylvania!

We were passed by one team, SISD. My guess is that this team really is the computers of an Independent School District that were all "volunteered" to fold over the holidays. They are producing points at a rate of 37,000 points per day. As we gain members from the 100,000 FReepers that visit JimRob's place I expect that we will have a much greater long term growth than them.

A clever way to get new FR members to join is to change our signatures to something that promotes the FR team -- see my new tagline

Box 3 died during the night...BSOD. BUT, I've still got the other two.
1000@82% <<Lappy
500@64% << Dual proc AMD MP2800

I can't believe my lappy is running circles around my dual proc amd2800. Not that I've tweaked it, just threw a hd in it and loaded win2k for this.

:O)

Team #100 has 199 cpus - Team FR currently has 161, so getting into the Top 100 (even if it takes 1 years) is doable.

I've fixed one of them, but until I can figure out which one is klutza, I'll just have to let it contribute to the team.

Maybe you should switch all of your systems to a user name that you can spell easier.

Say, Texas_Booster.

Texas_Booster was folding at a rate of 1,000 points/day before systemtic posted his F@H thread on 12/9/05 http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-bloggers/1537549/posts

We then started signing up new members and rose to 3,000, then 4,000, 5,000 and 6,000 points/day.

Klutz_dohanger, however, single handedly doubled our daily production to over 10,000 points/day.

Happy folding!
