It's a bird, it's a plane, it's a... drunk penguin? Who IS this guy and why does he keep swerving into my lane!? At his current rate of flight, I will be passed soon unless he crashes into me in which case I will sue him for all of his credits.

It's a shame really, so many potential taunting targets never show their face here. How else are we to taunt people we have no possibility of passing?

I thought we did that all the time, just don't even try and taunt KR, he's no fun.

I have no issue taunting KR. I also like to trim my hedges with a lawn mower. After all, there is no warning label against such behavior.

Well, Martin blew my doors of as was expected. The only redeeming quality of Martin is that he is going to pass Al Dente too.

I must agree. He stood no chance when I passed him in WCG but at least he could have complained. Instead he just nibbled on a carrot (or mabey it was and arm) and smiled.
well quotes are not working.........

Quotes work fine unless you try to close them twice (i.e. /quote /quote). User error, and so very typical to blame it on the software.

And pass me he will - have you seen this guy's shrubbery? 22 dual-core Xeons!!!!
The only consolation is that he must be pissing Sir Fart off - he's only crunching Rosetta; HeHe

I'm not as pissed anymore as he zoomed by me a while back like I was standing still. I'm only crunching one project and I'm still pitiful  . |

Interestingly enough, the NanoHive debacle gave me the credits to bump back ahead of Martin and he's fallen steeply off his previous pace, allowing me to STAY ahead. That means Martin is now useless to me, as his only redeeming quality before was that he would pass Al. I am once again left snorting Al's dust in the vain hope that he will drop some credits.
On the plus side I overclocked my Athlon XP 3k+. Not much, really. Not enough to make any difference in my race vs Al. It does, however, actually show up in that hosts credit history, and with the latest bump tonight it might actually break 400 RAC. I had to bump voltages to get it stable at it's current speed (13x171 up from 13x166) which is pretty pathetic. I may be wrong, it may have been a software issue I'm also sorting out. At any rate, the upward trend is a good thing.

Are you kidding? The directions for mine more or less indicated that it mean the end of civilization as we know it if you merely walked backwards with it running!

Dang, I had better get to work cooling this rig down so I can OC. That is perilously close to the best RAC I've ever managed with it.
The good news is, I've managed to stay less than 20K rank by RAC, and have broken through 150K overall. I think this is pretty good, considering that it was 250K+ when I started noticing (earlier this year), and I was 750K+ (based on solely classic credits) when 2007 started.

Looks more like a total of 22 cores total (maybe). Still, it's pretty impressive, with some dual C2D and a number of quad C2D
Thanks for posting the link for us to check out.
