Do we have a team number for Folding at Home 2.0?


Please go to »folding.stanford.edu for your current stats. Also, we've decided to go with G@H... "team numbers" for teams instead of names. The benefits are that it's much easier to misspell the name than the # (G@H... vs F@H... has demonstrated that) and we can do a lot more neat things with teams using the G@H... system.

If you like, please do sign up for your team #s. We are feature freezing the stats and db backend, so any more changes will be bug fixes.

Getting close to the 2.0 roll out ...

Vijay

PS I know there are some bad links and wrong pages on the 2.0 site (»folding.stanford.edu). We'll have that fixed by the end of the week.

One more question, with 2.0 what happens to the stats? Do they start at zero?

Do you know if the 2.0 installs "over' the old client, or do you have to wipe it out and start fresh? That would be a lot of work, with three or four clients running on most of my rigs.:rolleyes:

We do need a team number.
I don't think anyone knows what will happen to the stats, even Vijay Pande. There are so many ideas floating around that Yahoo board right now and the only responses I've seen remind me of the Great taste/Less filling commercials. Resetting the stats would suck short term but they may have to do it just to move to the new system.

Yeah same here. Took forever to make the first real progress before I bought more machines. Months actually. I think it would suck if they zeroed the stats, but I can't help thinking that it may be better to jsut get everything working smoothly for a change. Mixed emotions. I feel like a waffle.
