what Race, if you read the Forums, it signs that the race is over
http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/donate.php
We hope to raise $750,000 so we can get these projects finished and carry on our daily operations through the coming year
only this Seti will be shutdown shortly, fron the original E-Mail
...We are rapidly approaching the end of what funds we do have. We we will need to raise about $750,000 to pay for these new capabilities and to keep SETI@home operating for the next year. Without this support SETI@home may be forced to shut down...
regards

I know the race is over.. thats why I want another one.. lol. And yes, Ive seen the news on the site, unfortunately short of sending them NZD in the mail, i can do nothing about it.. im not old enough to own a paypal account, and my parents dont have a CC.

EDIT: just emailed them about how i can donate, as normal methods of payment arent available to me.. hope they get back soon, today alone people have donated $12361.00 USD.. hope they make their target. Oh, adding a dedicated pressy 3.2 to the team next week. water cooled so hopefully ill be able to pull 4ghz out of it.
Sir Ully, Careface was talking about our team internal race. Its the small competition between us in the team. :)

lol whoops, sorry for the confusion Sir Ulli.. I just hope we can get in another race or two before the current S@H comes to an end, and the new, more indepth SETI comes out! *hint hint* :p

I, as always, Im happy to participate in the race......I have had little free time these last days, but I have kept SETI running as much as I can.....slugging tothe 400,000 milestone mark....but still tryiong to get there soon...LOL
I've still got my script for running the race. My webserver is lacking a motherboard at the moment but one's on the way. Once it's back up I don't mind organizing a race (so in a week or two).

Haven't crunched for Seti in a long time, but I just switched some of my machines over, count me in!
Count me in too! :D
And BTW Mictlan where is Dk Jedi Alliance? He was once very active here on the forum, but I haven't seen him for a long time here. Is he still crunching?

I am still here. But have had some personal issues. A person I hold very dear passed away. Therefor I took a break with SETI - but it was not without some thoughts as I have been here just over 3 years.
I have discussed this with Mictlan and I think we came to a agreement.

Dude.. sorry to hear that mate >_< if you need someone to talk to, we are here for you. I doubt anyone here would object. Hope you can sort your life out soon, and cheer up and crunch on :)

My rigs are at your disposal for a race.
I might even be able to bump production a bit

Stryfe willing to organize it and track the stats when the server mobo comes in.
But usually there is not much interest shown until the race signup thread is posted with a deadline to join.
The server is running again. Now I just have to set MySQL and Perl back up. I'll post a signup thread soon.
