Folding@home race (Jan 24 - 31)

[Woomack]

That #30 was taken as of noon, so not a full day.

As of that update, you did 13,537,989.

Yes, you are right. I don't know how I was reading these posts and missed "noon" I should've clicked on the link for End of Day results, and then it would be 25M.

Weekend is here. Time to add more folding power and do some catching up!

At Day 2.5, the five teams manage to reach a combined score of 20% of the world daily aggregate output. Keep it up!

I think I'm gonna suspend some f@h work tomorrow for some gaming. Hope we'll be okay.

Break out the board games.

Well if you're sure then I'll keep the hammer down.

Try gaming with it on. I can play Fortnite and PUBG at 2560x1440 without a hiccup. Points take a hit (like half+), but it's better than zero.

This is insane to me.... WTF!!!

 

[lblanchardiii]

I'll just leave it going. Don't wanna lose our position.

I wanted to play some serious Sam with the boys, but I guess it not as important.

 

[lblanchardiii]

Now the guys are gonna play Palworld instead and I really want to pause the work so I don't have any issues playing. I mean, we got a decent lead so I figured it would be okay for a few hours. Plenty of science is getting done.

Do you, man!!! We appreciate ANY effort.

(you can still try pausing it and see if it works... if it doesn't you're an alt+tab away from pausing and resuming the game like normal)

 

[lblanchardiii]

I just like that you guys are so about the science of it all that you don't even want your competition to pause folding for even a couple hours.

To put in perspective...I bought a gaming laptop just so I could continue gaming during the contest...But when I saw the 4070 in it is getting 4mill plus. I decided to test it for durability instead and so it sits on fah 24/7...and I am scratching my head why I bothered..

BG3 sits waiting and my EA Golf world rating is dropping like a rock.

That’s what the PS5 is for. If that could be modded to fold… bring back the PS3 days.

 

[lblanchardiii]

Haha, I just wondered over to the thread. Funny, you got asked if you were sure we'd win. I had to answer

Well that didn't go as planned.

 

[Holdolin]

Well that didn't go as planned.

Actually it went exactly as planned. To me at least, this was like my days of Active Duty. My ship's crew would play against other ship's crews. Wed drink a few brews, play a little ball, and talk a LOT of smack. Just in this case there was some additional good: collectively we did BILLIONS of points of work. I'm proud of not only our great team's showing but of all the competitors. Has me debating entering tour de prime (Prime Grids annual contest in honor of the only even prime on the line). Not sure I wanna divert ma fleet though. Guesss I have just under 24 hrs to make up my mind. Anyway, a hearty congratz to all who participated. WTF one and all

This is the only time where we could get some of our sleepers to wake up and fold for the team. If you look at our [H] monthly output, we usually peak around Jan and spill over to the month of Feb or Mar at least based on the past two years. I think this month will be our second highest monthly output. Granted new 4000 series cards help a lot but not everyone has one, including me.

You were a squid?

 

[Holdolin]

Aye, loud and proud. Haze grey and underway.

 

[Railgun]

Well then Semper Fi! I know it's not your motto...but it is ours.

 

[EarthDog]

Is it......over? This 4090 is begging for mercy, lol.

 

[don256us]

It was over as of 7:00 AM eastern time. I've got to get ready for the day's activities but I will post what I can find a bit later. Thank you to everyone.
