We'll see for how long, you're due for another one of those big points days and I'm sure you'll pass me back.

Well you know, some days your the bug and somedays your the BIG RIG barreling down the road.........
I've been really wondering why it seemed my scores seemed to have dropped off (however, I seem to get nothing but 241 and 600 point units that take forever), even after adding my new rig (AMD64 3200 Venice on WINXPX64) and even overclocking my 3200 Winny to 2.3 (all YOUR fault

something I never do!). Well, just checked the config files and it seems when I reinstalled X64 (driver problems, imagine that) the team number was "0"

.
I can assure you that I have fixed that now!

. I see this as only a temp setback.
At least I made you work for it, now YOU get to be looking over your shoulder

.
Well Done, Young Grasshopper, but don't slow down, I see Newegg is still in business, did you hear tha AMD64 X2's are out this month?
edit:
Well, I just checked Stanford and I was right 5345 points and 83 workunits to Default Team. Oh well, still for the cause.

LOL, yeah, now I am looking over my shoulder.
I'm due for a fall, yesterday was a big points day and the day before that was good too, so I'm due for a realy lousy day pointswise today and you'll probably end up passing me, especially since you're just a few hundred points behind.
But hey, if you want to spend hundreds of dollars to keep up, by all means, spend away!

Okay, smart aleck.

Don't worry, I'll get my replacement!
You're right, I'm leading with the 6pm update but we'll see. We're so close in our production that with each update there's a chance for the other guy to pull ahead! This is the part of Folding that I love, the friendly competition.

Scare us? Hey, I have 4 at home: 3 in my bedroom and 1 on the dining room table!

(That's my workbench, lol.) Plus another 17 elsewhere!
Thanks for the compliment but all the Folders on the team are terrific IMO.

I know you'd agree.

Just checked the stats and thinking the same thing. And thank you Ms T2 but "aw shucks, ma'am it's just the right think to do".
Yo Ghost, think we would shake the world if we joined together? Scary thought, huh? Would miss the comp but wouldn't it rattle everyone ahead of us? Just a stray thought............

Ghost,
You had better bring your A game with you when you fool around with the Lukeman...

He and I go way back... Damn toughest one to pass and stay in front of that you will ever encounter! Just when you think that you are leaving him in dust, he will be ahead again!

Give up is not in that ol' marines vocabulary!

I think that I ended up having to have ~30 rigs running 24/7 to get away from him!

And I still wake up in the middle of the night in a cold sweat, and wonder if he is passing me again!
Remember, it is 90' to first, no matter where home is...
Keep up the good work!

Fold on!

Hey Ken,
I'm Folding about 20 rigs 24/7 and am currently about 2k ahead of him in points but I know what you mean about trying to pass him. We've exchanged leads several times already and I'm sure there'll be more to come, from what little I know of him. Very tough. And apparently has resources to add comps.
Thanks,
E

We would be formidable as a team, for sure, but I guess I'm more like a sniper at heart...

Just pickin' 'em off one by one.
