I'm a bit late as I had to go to jail... I mean, I had to interview clients at the jail. No I'm not an attorney. I'm just the lowest paid guy who interviews clients for the attorneys.

We've been talking about the race for about a week or so now. It starts at 1PM EST or 10 AM PST. You can calculate different time zones as needed. It does appear that we are ready to go and we'll highlight that in a bit. If you have more that you can throw in, lets get it now. Now is the time. Not later and only earlier if you have a time machine. (Note: If you have a time machine I would like to borrow it please.)

Curecoin is still evading us. They are a sneaky bunch for sure but EVGA is still in our reach and we've reduced the time to 2.3 years. We're doing much better than last week.
T32 top 100/200 world rankings:
@HayesK #15.
@Holdolin #25.
@WhitehawkEQ #27.
@dfonda #47.
@HayesK #67.
@folding_monkeys #69. Hehehehe.... Uh. I mean... Sorry. I'll be good.
@P4EE #96.
@Farwalker2u #97.

Top 200: @torin3 , @orion456 , @don256us and @mongogeek . Great showing guys. Top 200 and all. WOOT!

Gearing up for the race and we are looking ready to rumble! 45 active members and please welcome our newest member, @FlyingCentaurus93 who is bringing in more than our usual newb. (Note: Newb is said with affection not disdain.) Please welcome them and thank you for helping out. Our average ppd for all active members is 26.8 million. Our daily production chart is looking really good. There was a call to arms and you guys are coming through. Our current 24 hour average is 1.2 billion and in the last 24 hours we earned 1.3 billion. Every single person who folded in the last 24 hours gets to share in that number and it's a good number.

Our earners this week are: (Note: We recognize anyone who is earning 1 million ppd or more here. If you earn less we still think you're great.)
@Lowryder, @JLK03F150 , @tom_ozahoski , @AndrewThomasThomas, @infinitevalence , @KenSavage, @FlyingCentaurus93, @Hitman, @EarthDog , @Mindmatter, @Norcalsteve , @aviationfrk, @Rezonia, @The Four Horsemen, @Rpkole and @modd are all earning 1.0 - 9.1 million ppd.

@Raymond_Abbott, @harlam357, @orion456 , @gulp35 , @Grub , @[EsMd]Slayer and @don256us are earning 13.2 - 19.7 million ppd.

@=XAF=AfterShock is earning 24.7 million ppd.

@P4EE and @Farwalker2u are earning 43.1 and 49.3 million ppd.

@DeputyKovacs is earning 60.9 million ppd.

@dfonda is earning 84.7 million ppd.

@WhitehawkEQ is earning 97.2 million ppd.

@folding_monkeys are earning 188.3 million ppd.

@HayesK is earning 233.2 million ppd.

Last but not least, our "banned from public smack talk guru" @Holdolin is earning 278.5 million ppd.

All good numbers. Just a little about math (or maths or mathematics as you prefer) new or old, if you recently added more production, the points are immediate but the average takes time. I really only wrote this to make fun of old and new math along with American and British English. Have fun with that as you will.

On the individual milestones, we have TWO people earning their first BILLION!
@modd just earned his first billion! WOOT WOOT!
@[EsMd]Slayer earned his first billion! WOOT WOOT!

@Rezoria has earned 400 million.
@The Four Horsemen has earned 200 million skipping all other milestones. What the what!?
@infinitevalence has earned 200 million.

@FlyinCentaurus93 has earned their first 10 million! WOOT!

Okay guys. That's the update and a brief/general idea of our race prep. Two more hours from posting this and we're off. Stay in for the full week. Next Friday is the end.

Until then:
Build, Borg, Recruit.

Congrats to the 'stones mates. Why do these races always start right before the GPU's get released ? 6 GPU's and I need one more(Which I don't have) to troubleshoot my main PC. The good news I have an open slot for one of the new GPU's. Hope I can procure one.

We get together in our secret meetings and work with AMD/NVidia/Intel to plan it this way. However, these meetings are secret so do NOT tell anyone.

I'm going to assume you meant to say "Much" and "Thank" :rofl: :chair:
 
Geez, finally hit 1B points, that's nuts to think about. It's also crazy that I've more than tripled my point total in ~2.5 months. These 40 series cards are something else hehehehe. End of Nov was a major goal for me, hitting on the top 100 for the team so I didn't have to go to page two on the EOC team member list to see my name (lol), and now I'm creeping up on top 50 in the next two weeks.

Thanks to @don256us for the update, and thanks to @dfonda for sending a 3070 Ti my way to fold with for this challenge. After screwing around with my NAS for far too long trying to get it going in a container I gave up and just built a PC from spares and plopped it in the basement. Highest temp the GPU core has seen so far under load is 52*f. XD
 
Without him, who knows what you guys would be reading. No. Seriously. What would you be reading? I'm always looking for new things to not read.
Do you REALLY want an answer to that? :rofl:

For real though, y'all are just amaze. We laugh together, we cry together, and we talk mad smack, but when the gauntlet is thrown down we rise it to (que "rise to it" by KISS) it. Y'all really do bring a tear to my eye.

Ok, now that my eyes are dry: gratz on the 'stones and lets KICK SOME @$$
