Now I'm averaging over 1,000 points per day, for the first time since late april/early may!

I'll be hitting 100K soon, probably by next week!

Broke 1.2K/day (basically making me a dark red color on the EOC stats page), and broke 90K! EOC estimates a week until 100K, I think I'll shorten that a little bit. :)

Passed 50k points a few days back. Approaching 800ppd average now. These bigger WUs really help, now that I've got 5 processors running (technically 4). Another month and I'll have the C2D system finished and hopefully a few more spare machines, and hopefully I'll break into the top 20 producers for the team!

I just hit 100K, finally!

The lab was shut down right as I hit 90K, and between me having a few busy weekends, my home PC's were off as well.

And I don't know what big WU's you're getting Inked, for the past couple weeks all I've gotten were the P77X's, which are all small.. and somewhat annoying.

I'm considering taking off the advmethods switch, since my laptop got a 600pt WU with it off.

I had a run of about a week and a half where I was getting nothing but 230+ WUs. That was preceded by several weeks of nothing but 36, 41 and 120 point WUs. I'm not back on those lower point WUs and my ppd has dropped by almost 300 points. You'll be able to tell if you look at my weekly scores. It's obvious by the number of WUs completed and the scores both.

Looks like I won't be hitting 1k for a while, unless my C2D nets me at least 500ppd.

I've been getting a lot of 600 pointers. My X2 @ 2.6GHz turns in 550ppd on that diet. 8)

Looks like the addiction is kicking in. Just need a few more machines to make the top 20 permanent

now putting that IBM T60 Thinpad Core duo to folding? I wonder if the sotware is optimized for the Yonah core?

Gerbil Jedi Happy Dance! Finally folded > 400,000 points!

\/ maxxcool edit:
Congrats on all your good fortune! I still remember the rush of making it to the first page with all the big dogs, welcome! Best of luck with your return to matrimony. I did better with my second attempt, but killed it with a lack of effective communication.

Congrats.. I got distracted with the vacation thing and let some nodes go down. There are about four that have went awol for some reason. I didn't have time to fix them. Personally I have three nodes down being offset by adding a second C2D.

well i finally hit that magical number. real life is gonna get busy now as grad school is starting up. i don't have as many active core running as i should be but hopefully the number wont be dropping any lower. i still have a few machines that are not assembled yet but i have no access to them til next time i go back home, so unless i can get someone to build them for me they will be sitting in the boxes until next year. here's to the next million!
