Of course I've noticed this b/c he's right on my tail and should have easily run me over.

Anyone know who he is or if we can get in touch with him?

Man, he really put up the numbers the last couple months.

People may be slowing down because of the summer heat.

I think I recall flexy mentioning that his production would only last a few months. Can't recall if he said it would be back after the summer.

William Hung · 06-08-07, 10:46 AM

I recall the same for Flexy... don't know what happened with Jon. At least this give me a chance to catch back up with him after he passed me a few months back! I hope they both get everything back up and running soon!

Mark620 · 06-08-07, 01:02 PM

I noticed this too...come back guys...

From the "Flexy breaks the top 20 thread".

Taking it as far as it can go. A lot of these machines will be off come June (they're in schools

) but will definitely all be back come August so just a slight down time. However I will be going for Top 10 or 5 or 3 (lol).

To the new folders: Welcome to the best team. Thank you for contributing to the fold and for the cause. Contribute what you can and don't stress over max PPD or having the fastest folding box. Every little bit counts and that's what will get us back into #2.

Forum name is also Flexy. Flexy's an old timer been around since 03.

we need to keep those kids in school all summer

It seems gulp35/junebug have also let their school borg take the summer off

Although we do miss the folding powah, it does free up a few top 20 spots for our many worthy teammates

William Hung · 06-09-07, 12:41 PM

Gives me time to build a lead on Flexy as well... for the August overtake!

Jon · 06-10-07, 10:51 AM

I had to remove my borg from work...it was causing some issues that I just didn't need. I still have it running on a couple, but those are the ones I directly use - all others had to go.

In addition, I still run what I can at home and altogether can only pull around 4-5k per day at best. Wish I could have held on to more, but they weren't my systems :\

William Hung · 06-10-07, 11:18 AM

I"m sorry to hear that Jon, at least you are able to keep a few and those are putting up good numbers!

Flexy · 06-10-07, 11:55 AM

Yep I just checked my numbers and noticed it crashed pretty quick. Schools have shut down as have the computers folding. They should be back come August without fail and will have some new dual core hopefully pumping out decent numbers once we start getting those put in. It should only be about 4-6 weeks and then everything will be back up and running.

Sorry for lack of communication...that real life thing gets in the way
