Out of the corner of my eye, I spotted the shadow of the assassin slowly sweeping into my kill zone, along the cold grey stone wall. It was just a matter of time before the assassin would expose himself to the head shot he had coming to him.

But right now, it was time to see how my team was faring in The Great Chimp Challenge Race, over in the folding forum.

It had been all too easy to join - I clicked here:
http://folding.stanford.edu/English/HomePage

and ran the install program, entering the information in red:
7777777]Our team race name is: T32monkeys
7777777]Our team number is: 32
7777777]Our public passkey is: 3311d92fd7ee331bd66dfe6eea01708b

Sure, it's the annual Great Chimp Challenge race, to raise awareness for the Folding@Home project, but what I want to do is knock down a few of the competing teams - 7 to choose from. :clap:

Handicapped races are fun -- if you recruit of course. :D

Why not join and recruit some friends? It gets exciting with the frequent updates, and blog-like threads, in the folding forum. Unexpectedly so!

After the race, the program uninstalls like any other Windows program. Whenever you want.

But right now, I've got a an assassin to take care of! :p

It's the Great Chimp Challenge team folding race for Folding@Home, May 15th - May 25th! Be there, or be square! :thup:

You can jump straight into it, by going here:

and running the Windows set up program. Enter the info in red, above.
(It is case sensitive!)

I hope to see you on the "starting line", on the 14th. We start a day early so we have a work unit to send in, on the first day of the race. :clap:

Thanks. Post here, in the folding forum, or PM me, if you have any questions.

P.S.

There is a rumor that we intend to send in so many work units that the Folding@Home servers will overheat.

That is a lie!


We are going to send in so many work units that the Folding@Home servers are melted into a puddle of smouldering goo! :thup:
 
Besides the levity, the purpose of posting this HERE is to encourage you in your recruiting efforts.

We need to recruit, Recruit, and RECRUIT some more! One week left! :cool:
