Active CPUs within 50 days 103 -- We broke 100 Active CPUs! If anyone knows Sullivan his client is misconfigured (probably needs a driver update) and is sending back WUs without completing them. Also, a few people on here only submitted 1 or 2 WUs and are no longer active, so join back!

And we reached an even more impressive milestone! Team Ranking (incl. aggregate) 2990 of 209871!! Top 3,000!

 

[specialkornflake]

And already we are Team Ranking (incl. aggregate) 2829 of 209909

Remember though guys it gets a lot tougher from here so we need more help!

I'm currently doing folding@home. I don't know much about how it works, but its installed on my computer. How can I join the Ron Paul team?

Teams each have their own number. Read my original post. Since you have been doing it for awhile you probably have an older client, so it might be a good idea to finish your current work unit, right click it and select finish or pause when done. Then uninstall it and install the beta client linked in my first post. If you told me more about your computer etc. I might be able to provide better instructions.

Let me know if anyone has any questions and I will do my best to answer them!

Make Stanford issue a GPU client for POSIX

I am rocketing up based on my 8 cores alone (the mini is mostly irrelevant) if I added GPU folding I might well make top-5 in the team with only the two clients.

Finally, something is using the monster crunching capabilities of my desktop. That machine is a beast!

It really is amazing how far along our young team has come in such a short amount of time. In large part it is because of machines like that!

The more detailed team statistics are now up and running again. They've been down for a few days: http://stats.free-dc.org/stats.php?page=team&proj=fah&team=182919

We are starting to pass universities and other important groups, keep it up!

top 1000 by the end of the week?

I think we've been ambitious but maybe not that ambitious, lol. In order for stuff like that to happen I need more people spreading the word and crossposting this on other places where Ron Paul supporters will see this.

Cool man. I'll wait for it to finish. Uninstall it. Install the beta one, and follow your instructions.

I'm on the team now. Instead of uninstalling and reinstalling, if you already have it installed, it's faster to right click the tiny icon in the bottom right hand side-->configure...-->Team Number and type in 182919.

At 2566 now, I think we just passed the Wikipedia team!

Welcome to the team! The reason to uninstall your client is because you don't have the newest client which, depending on your computer hardware, might be much more efficient.

Just read the fascinating wikipedia article on folding@home: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Folding@home

I was very surprised to learn that only 30,000 GPUs are participating. That's why we are doing so well! Because so few GPUs are participating, each GPU WU returned is given a very high point value. Most of us are using the new Beta Client and that allows excellent GPU processing!

The same is true for Playstation3 Processing. Only 26,000 are doing the protein folding, I guess because it's been awhile since the PS3 came out. So those are worth a lot too.
