Ni!

According to the Knightly Code of Conduct: Book 7,Rule 32.4 sections 4 through 3.034x10^34, pages 8 through 7, reading from the bottom to the top of paragraph 42, sentence 1:

Any Looney (loonie) Knight may at any time for any reason subject the entire Team, heretofore known as the Knights Who Say Ni! to turn over all shrubbery producing equipment for the sole purpose of a challenge that they have absolutlely chance of winning for the mere fact that is is a challenge. But only for a period of not more than 7 days, because that would make us a weak.




I have signed up the Knigiits for the fight.

A race that we stand no chance of winning and which will make us look like a bunch of loonies?? Shocked

Count me in for a core or four! Cool

Hmmm, do we have to post somewhere special? Sign a special secret list? Learn a secret handshake?

According to my reading of Volume 345850, chapter 394, sub-chapter 29395, paragraph 3, sub-paragraph 27473459, line 34, word 3 :

Ni

That is what I get. So obviously I am in.

Well, on Saturday I moved from having most of my effort on Cosmo to a very distributed effort, and I've just had my Best Day Yet (with 5 projects not showing up yet):



But, of course, I'm in. I've aborted all unstarted WU's (not a quick task!!) and attached everything to Poem.

However, my normally fairly reliable RAC calculator says I'll only get ~12k out of the Dentery - that's less than half what Cosmo can produce!!! (And Planet 3D Now! have cranked up to nigh on ½ million a day!!!)

Never mind, it's all relative.

#ni-1



I'll include the Race in the daily update for the next week.

Points allocation in Cosmology is somewhat suspect - all completed WUs get 100 points regardless of claimed credits. This means there is a distinct bias towards fast systems (my Harpertown Xeon gets about 5 times claimed credit - my old Nocona barely gets what it claims... Embarassed )
Add the recent no credit debacle and buggy releases (invalid results and cores that don't suspend when asked to!) #evil and you will understand why I've left this project alone recently... Rolling Eyes

Okay, I've shifted my gaming rig from Proteins to POEM, so should be able to see what the relative RAC is (it did 1500+ on Proteins). Frame rates have dropped slightly in Oblivion, but nothing I can't live with... Twisted Evil

Ni!

"Founder change has already been requested by Wabbit98 on 24 Mar 2008" Shocked

How did you discover my super secret. I will only rule the small project teams, or those projects we an active founder.

Currently we are 14th overall in the challengene standings. Only about 3K behind Canada. I am sure we can pass some Canucks with no problem. Engage to Ludricuirs shrubbing speed now!
