Quick question. We have a new guy starting on Monday. He’s a good guy that I worked with at another company about 20 years ago and can take a joke. See where this is going? What would be a good prank to pull on the new guy? We are currently pulling the monitors from his assigned machine and giving him two old projectors that will display on a wall slightly off to the side. Not folding related I know but a fun exercise because I think we all should have some fun.
On the team front, we are doing very well. Yes banano.cc passed us but we are making great headway against many other great teams. I’m proud of our stamina and persistence.
Team Conquest/Threat List
Good news is that banano.cc is no longer on our threat list. Bad news is that they passed us. They earned it but if they want to keep it they’d better stay at it. If they don’t, we will take it back. More good news is that we are again gaining on NVIDIA. I mean, they need to be selling cards not using them to beat us. Am I right? Even more good news is that we are making PC Games Hardware work for it. They cannot slack off if they want to pass us. Same for SLAC and Theta Edge Compute. Element AI Inc is struggling to pass us too.
Active folders and ranking:
We are down 6 active team mates. That’s a bummer for sure. We do have 73 active folders though which is great. We are also averaging 2 million ppd as a team, which is also good. Just remember, it’s not how much you fold but if you fold. If you don’t fold then you’re out of the will.
Top 20 PPD:
You guys are looking great. Keep up doing the… stuff and things… that…. you… um… are doing… so that we can…. um… keep looking good and stuff or things. (Never mind me. I practicing for Ms. USA.)
Team Milestones.
don256us just earned 3 billion! WOOT!
penquininja just earned 400 million.
AlabamaCajun just earned 90 million.
_Dave_S just eanred 90 million.
JonT just earned 60 million.
flifisher just earned 30 million.
Patrick just earned his first 10 Million! WOOT!
Milestones are earned at all levels. Milestones are the best part of all this to me. We can’t all have access to large farms of folding rigs. We all do what we can. Be it your first million, first billion or first trillion, milestones are awesome. Great job and thank you for your efforts. They all count.

Times are especially tough on these guys since Stanford started including COVID into the mix. Cheers guys.
