Hey guys, Here is the Mystery prize I promised!!!
MYSTERY PRIZE: EVGA GTX260
But wait i'm not done!!!
I am issuing a challenge to our folding contestants!
IF 50% of our contestants fold 10% more on week 6 of the contest than they have on their best week in weeks 1-4, I will throw in an XFX HD 5870!!!
RULES!
0. 50% of contest participants must have a weekly output on week 6 10% more than their best weekly output of the first 4 weeks of the contest.
1. if this challenge is not met then only the GTX260 will be given away. (hey this 5870 cost me $430 you guys gotta earn it
)
2. The production of week 5 does not matter in this challenge. Only what you have produced in weeks 1-4 and then what you produce in week 6)
3. If you wish to join and be eligible to win the HD 5870, you will need to join prior to the drawing on 1/11/2010. If you join after this date, you will only be eligible for the GTX 260.
4. Only those participants that manage to increase their production on week 6 (by 10% more than weeks 1-4) will be eligible to win the prize. (if you have managed to fold at least 10% better than your best week of weeks 1-4 then you will be deemed eligible to win the prize and your contest entry's will be put towards a chance at winning the 5870.
4A. If you join between now and 1/11/2010, We will use http://folding.extremeoverclocking.com/ to track your stats, you will need to have 10% more production on week 6 of the contest than you have had on weeks 1-4 to be eligible for the 5870. Data from extreme stats will be used for weeks 1-4 since you just signed onto the contest.
5. The contest administration reserves the right to modify the rules of this challenge (promise only to make things more fair and fun).
6. If you increase your production by 30% then you will count as if 2 people has increased their production by 10%. 100%=5 people.
7. Those that are eligible to win the 5870 are also eligible to win the GTX 260 and any other 2nd prizes.
8.Intentionally Folding in someone else's name so that they specifically make their production requirement will be considered cheating. Any person caught doing so will be disqualified and Jeopardize the eligibility for the prize to be given away (depending on depth and severity of cheating). The contest administration reserves the right to request proof of a production increase. You may decline to provide proof if asked but will become ineligible for the prize and ineligible to contribute towards the challenge requirements. All other rules (found in the contest official rules thread) regarding cheating in this contest apply. Contestants that notice an abnormal production increase in their own stats or others should notify me right away. You may be eligible for bonus contest entries (up to double depending on severity) if someone (even a contest bystander) is caught cheating as a result of your report. If you have someone else folding for you, it is ok as long as they were also folding for you in the first 4 weeks of the contest. This rule is in place to protect fairness to myself (the 5870 prize donor) and fairness to the contestants. I really want to reward honesty and I won't cancel the challenge for everybody if people are up front and honest. THIS RULE IS NOT INTENDED TO DISCOURAGE BORGING (as long as you have permission) (in fact, if you can borg your moms computer, More power to ya)
