The tanuts section has been slow here lately, so I thought it best I supply a nice one.
Your Aqua spot is in danger.
The "No Tax" man commeth
You 790,635
Me 533,804
I should be passing the king of sofa tomorrow.. and as long as I don't stop for a nap - Or the Shrubbries of Aqua are not all shrubbed before 5 moons have come and gone, I should have passed you.

Wow. My first personal tanut from outside KWSN. I'm truly honoured, good Sir; I'd noticed "www.endthefed.us" rapidly getting larger in my rear-view mirror, but hadn't realised it was your own good self.
But as, firing on all cylinders, I can only churn out about ¼ of your current output, I must respecfully decline your invitation to mortal combat in his particular arena.
I was chasing Merlyn for the UK #1 spot, but he's gone and diskappeared off into the distance, so I'll have to content myself with (eventually) nipping past your very own Doctor Dan.
BTW, your timings are a bit pessimistic - you're already past the Couch Potato, and you'll probably squish me tomorrow.
Have fun in your stroll to the top.

Very well then sir, what are you chicken
However, I will keep Dr Dan looking the other way until you can sneak by him.
Yes I was not expecting my new toys to perform as they do. (even if they are only on loan). So might have been a bit pessimistic.
Never had me a V8 7xxx series before, and I might say, I am very much falling in like with them. If I were a rich man...... I feel a song coming on. _________________ Most Milestone Stats

Very impressive, but with an RAC of 10x my peak (and probably still rising), a lop-sided contest with you would only serve to distract me from the important goal -
WORLD DOMINATION FOR KWSN
But, on the other hand, there is one project where I may manage to nip past you in the next 3 or 4 weeks - I'll leave you to work out which one that is.

Ohh Damn, I have some homework! I hate it when that happens, the entire reason I dropped out of 3rd grade! _________________ Most Milestone Stats

That's disgraceful. 3rd grade was the best 6 years of my life! _________________

Well the there are a couple - SHA and Ralf - But I am assuming SHA -
Since you have already beaten me bloody in Poem and Yoyo
I have not done many SHA shrubs for a long time. I was not happy with the way the project decides to download 4 million WU's at a time and then sticks them on high priority..
Oh and congrats on a 10,000,000 milestone!!!

Yes, you're right, it's SHA; I'm aiming to just pass the ¼ million mark, and happened to notice that you're parked there. And SHA still acts the same; I just let BOINC Manager sort it out.
At the moment, I'm trying to move a few projects past landmarks to push myself up Free-DC's "most nnnn" lists.
And thanks for noticing the 10 mil.

Ahhh you do the most nnnn's --
The nnnn's that concerns me the most is the most #1's - and most 1m and most 10m
I got to get me another 10m - Steve-just tied me a few days ago for the #1 spot. wondering if Aqua is a good one for that.
And I am trying to keep my #1 spot with the most 1M's but that darn Paul is looking like a strong competitor for a tie, and in AQUA - go figure!
Aqua seems to heat up my shrubbers more than others... I don't like to see the poor bastards running at 90c _________________ Most Milestone Stats

Well, Aqua should give you another 1M in 3 or 4 days at your current rate, and it would take you about <whirr, whirr, clack, clunk> 80 days for a 10M, so it would seem a fairly good bet. Cosmo might be closer for a 10M, but I've rather gone off them.
Don't worry about the heat - just think what you're saving on heating bills.
My own ambitions are a bit more modest - a top 10 in ¼M, 100K & 25K (already there in 50K). With only two 1M projects I don't even make that list.
Best of luck in your endeavours; but above all, have fun.
Sir Al
