Temporary truce

I'm from the trouble makers over at MaximumPC (or MinimumPC as you refer to us from time to time).

I stopped by to tell you what a great job you all do of folding.
As you all point out often, you get it done with far fewer folders than we have on our team.

I read your forum often and generally learn something worthwhile about folding for my effort.

The fact that our two teams are folding so close together presently, inspired me to drop by and let you know that your team motivates us to fold the best that we can and Stanford is the winner.

We have some gas left in the tank and I'm sure you all have plans to stop us cold and get the Overclockers Australia team worrying about their upcoming hot weather folding.

Looking forward to the fall and winter with both of us folding the best we can.

Enjoying the competition

Game back on.

Thanks for the kind words g.

I for one wish I had more time to check in on you folks over there, it's a shame to only get to your forums when there is trash talking during the Monkey challenge. You folks have a huge machine over there that is getting closer every year.

Much respect in your recruitment:beer:

WTF

Truce? Oh, there's no truce....we will dominate in the end.

But, yeah, good job guys and gals. I can't wait for the Chimp Challenge next year already. Don't let that be your excuse to drop by and say hi though. Many of us either lurk here often or outright spy on you guys :eek:

Yes with greater numbers it should equal success. You should pass us......

But today is not that day friends.:)

Very nice of you to stop by! It's the competition aspect that is the brilliance. Lovely that so many are willing to donate time, materials, and electricity for the vagueries of 'points' and team-building. It has helped bolster my view of mankind.

Fold On!

QFT... it's all good in the spirit of the Fold. :beer:

I'll just have to stop in and say Hi once in a while... where you been anyway Kingfish? You used to stop in quite often.

Frankly I'm surprised you haven't been here taunting us while you guys were gaining there for several months. I miss the inter-team banter. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v663/harlam357/smileys/thlsfight.gif

I didn't want to run up my post count too high.
Thanks for all the welcomes.

One thing I notice that's different over here.

Your monkey team is pretty quiet and laid back.
Ours you can't shut-up no matter what you do.

You think they give you static at race time, we have it all year long.

I appreciate it when you divert their attention for that short time.

WTF MaxPC :beer: thanks for stopping by with the friendly words :)

Perhaps we should have an impromptu race outside of the chimp challenge? or maybe start doing it twice a year? :P

Looks like you guys have been some busy beavers with the production.
Maybe some quads have been added to the fold? Nice job either way!!!

Oh yea, almost forgot...you guys are going down!! :)

Yes, brilliant. Without the points system, Stanford would not get nearly as much participation.

I've been here, just been lurking a lot. I'm the designated spy for MPC, but shhhhhh, don't tell anyone ok?

I've almost posted a few taunts but I guess in my old age I'm toning it down. I hope this passes :p so I can get back to the smack talk.

Rock on do0ds :beer:

Well, I was gonna drop in and say Hi but for some daem reason I can't log-in... maybe the admins there just don't like me. :D

It's probably due to them revamping the site and putting in some more ads. Contact one of the admins over there and they will get you set straight.

One thing I notice that's different over here.

Your monkey team is pretty quiet and laid back.
Ours you can't shut-up no matter what you do.

That's why the real monkeys are over at MPC. You don't expect real monkeys to behave do you?
