At the moment we are down 23,000 points! We have been getting more than that per day for a while but, today we will go into first place!!! Anyone that has a few extra cpu minutes go ahead and toss them in and be part of the final push. I think everyone on the boards has already tossed in and many that I have never seen on here as well. I plan to keep pushing to make sure it's not too easy to toss up out of 1st. There are other projects that need help as well and just a few of us should be able to grow our lead. BUT TODAY"S THE DAY:wav::qgreenjumpers:

Mmmm... Bad timing for me. I have LHC@home and Nanohive WUs.
But if we get 1st place before I come back from school, congrats to everyone who helped get us to 1st place! :D

"It's the final countdown!"
20,000 points till number 1!

19,127 points till number #1 to be exact at this moment! Check the time.
I can't give her anymore then I am, remember farmers I have 2 systems only! Currently we are sub sonic and so close to the barrier that if I attempt to push either one any closer to Mach 1, they crash. I believe with 3,200 points daily I have accomplished as much as I can give!
I may be a tiny farmer, but I can really make my farm animals do lots of work.

I've still got 4 more systems sitting idle, ranging 600MHz, 1.2Ghz, 1.6Ghz & 2Ghz so not much to add in performance terms. Unfortunately though I have no safe way of plugging them in at the moment due to either being in arms reach of the kids or lack of amps! So I'm probably going to keep them off until I work this conundrum out!

Speaking of farm animals in my last post, I thought maybe since your lacking in power from the grid you might consider using an alternative source of energy. Those children of yours seem to have so much energy they never stop running around the house do they? Place them in a wheel setup similar to those hamster excercisers and let the kids power your systems. Making sure you don't over power, then add a regenerative braking mechanism so if they exceed the optimum speed you can garner energy to be stored for when the little rascals/children do actually sleep. You can then run the computers off the stored juice. Now if we could all use this exciting method for improving our output we would surely boost our numbers wouldn't we!
This is humor people, not intended for real life use!
On another side of thinking why don't you try a solar adaptation on your house, the addition of energy! Just a thought. This improvement usually comes with an upgrade on the electrical circuitry to the house. Also there are really good incentives right now in adding solar to your homes! Pay offs in 3 to 5 years instead of 20 in years past.:5propeller:
Now 18,000 points from our GOAL! Check the time, 1 hour change provides 1,000 points great job everyone!

The amount of energy the eldest has I could easily power the whole street!!! :icon_lol:
My issue is around my circuit breaker in my home office, as it's pretty close to maximum, throwing 1 more system in the pot, let alone all 4, would trip it! ...and leaving anything with buttons and lights on it within the house often leads to having it pulled apart and added to a train set by a 2½ yr/old almost immediately!:icon_lol:

Alright guys, sorry about the decrease in points. I have stopped jacking with DepSpid, and all machines are firing Tanpaku WU's again. I just hope the Japanese team doesn't dump on us...

2am est is the cutoff time for DC Vault sure be nice if all these parts were together as puters now instead of over the next few days. lol

Well we didn't make it to 1st. They stepped up just enough to stay 1500 points ahead. We should pass them in the next couple of hours. At least we will start out the new month in first place. As of right now we have put 652,345 points on the board in the last 28 days!!! Thanks to all who threw in their help in today and you can be sure that we will be in FIRST for the stats on the first. All I can say is "What an effort" this team can put out if they want to. It is truly amazing! Great Job Everyone!

Welcome back Lebo, you've been missing all the fun!
....are you going to give the team a helpful push to the 1st place safety zone (whatever amount that will be - lots more prob. going by what everyone is saying!)?
:blob3:
Now when we have run over the Japanese as a steamroller they must be very flat.:icon_tongue: I think I now will move my computers to Moneybee. No I’m only kidding.:icon_biggrin: Of source I will continue and defend our position. I joined our team Oct. 01 and I have been witnessed to a great achievement. I think we have moved to our current position faster than in any project ever.
Thank you all for your ambition of carrying out our goal and for your patience hold out to the happy end. United we stand, divided we fall! A collective rule as is as true as it says.:icon_exclaim:
