That is totally strange! The Stanford site has it listed like that also, with 1 ranked #263 and the other ranked #722. They are shown in Stanford's stats as having folded for more than 1 team, team 32!:eek: That doesn't help you rise in the rankings though. If I were you, I'd go post in the yahoo folding group about this to Stanford and ask them what is going on.

Only thing I can think of is maybe a space before the name or after it might cause something strange. Might try looking at your config files. It does look odd

I don't know what the deal is with the stats weirdness. i've seen this a bunch of times and have no explanation for it.
The entries were identical or so it seems and I checked the source and saw no strangeness in it. Spaces are now taken care of with an underscore so that problem should be solved. Other than that the only thing I can think of is that they made so changes in the stats and some flakiness arose while they were working on it.

wasn't horatio from midsummers night dream?

Horatio Nelson, the celebrated Admiral of the British fleet. Most remembered for the great victory at Trafalgar, where he was killed.

I was just curious if penguin was related, given he is a Brit.

My last name is Swedish, so I am definately no relation.

My last name, Nelson, is from my Dad's side. I don't know if Admiral Nelson is a relation. My dads family have lived in Lincolnshire for the past few generations, but my Mum is Scottish (Fifish in fact :D) and we live in Scotland, near Edinburgh.

Horatio Hornblower?

I watched a few movies on him, he's a cool guy!

Ah! Now I know why I like you so much. ;) My family name comes from Scotland, but I haven't been able to pinpoint exactly where yet. Poeple here don't quite know how to deal with us. My dad wears orange on St. Patty's day, and I make it a point to sit down with the kids every St. Patty's day and watch Braveheart. :D

Some day, I'll come visit.

Ah, a fellow scot :D

If you do come to visit, drop by Livingston, near Endinburgh. It has one of Scotlands biggest shopping areas (the Almondvale Centre and the McArthur Glen Designer outlet) and is near to a lot of the major electronics industrial sites - known as 'Silicon Glen'.
Funnily enough, I have never seen Braveheart :D
Scotland isn't really all woodlands and history, but the central area is very urban, the northern areas are practically unspoiled (and uninhabited :D).
