Just a thought.
When I joined KWSN a few months ago (Sept-2009), we were ranked #86...but we're slipping (currently #92 at the time of this post). I assume this is not a cause-and-effect thing!
I hope for the sake of our traditional "prestige" (as such), we can stay in the top 100!
Click here for our current team stats
Can some other Knights swing some of their shrubbers back to F@H to get us some much needed points?
This would prevent us from slipping into the ignominious "no-longer-in-the-top-100-teams" abyss.
I am currently the top 'heavy-lifter' for KWSN at F@H (as far as points/day), but I know some others have seriously more powerful shrubbers than I do.
Please help! It would be GREATLY appreciated, even if just for a few days or weeks!

I'll trow a core on it for a little while. My problem is that I'm getting addicted to boinc and these darn POTMs keep sucking me in. I try to do some F@H wus every once in awhile, but after a few I get some that error out or won't upload or whatever and I find myself looking back to other projects.
But, I'll give it a shot for a little while anyway.

I just reached a Million points in Collatz in the last 9 days well, actually 8.98 days
Edit: actually, that really is amazing when you consider that it took me 7 years to reach 1 Million

Sorry, but I don't have any good GPU-card, and running FaH on CPU is just a big waste of time.
I do agree that it would be pretty embarrassing for the team to slip out of the top 100 though.
If I ever upgrade to a decent gaming card I might throw it in there.

- I agree that CPU folding doesn't give much of a "worthwhile" points-per-day value, but some projects cannot run on a GPU.
- Thanks for the acknowledgment of the potential embarrassment of falling out of the top 100.
- Here's a thought (about decent card) - Wait for Nvidia to launch their Fermi cards (GF100 series)
...and watch for ATI to significantly drop their prices on almost every high-end card they have
...might be able to pick-up a 5870 (or maybe even a 5970) for almost 1/2 of their current price.

I've noticed that you already have over 4.5 million points on F@H - WOW!!!.
I hope you reach your goal/milestone at Seti, and can throw some considerable shrubberization towards F@H for a while.
