    I have set my goal and that is to try to catch Chinasaur!

    I am currently #41 on the team and Chinasaur is currently #40. I know that he has more boxes working than I do, but trying to catch him will keep me busy.

    Question

    OK Dy . . .there must be something askew here! Is Chinasaur even running DF any longer? Is "anybody" still running DF for that matter?

    I believe the problem was on the official DF stats. It was borked and hence it looked like nobody was producing anything at all.

    But rest assured, they are folding.

    I have changed my goal and that is to reach 300,000 and then go for 400,000!

    I find DF quite easy and fun! My next goals are to sweep past starkebn, Richard Clyne, and rus6 and then glide into 400,000. As I posted before, it really seems like there is not much activity below the top 15 members.

    Correct me if I am wrong . . .Dy's stats pretty much give me the same stats as the official DF website, albeit a bit behind them at times.

    I guess I need to refer to Dy's site to see the actual activity though. Since it is hot here in San Diego, I find myself having to turn off one and often two of my boxes after 3 pm in the afternoon and not restart them until after 11 pm (my home office's big window faces the street and even though it has grey tinted glass, the room still gets warm, and since my aprtment faces the street and the west I get all of the negative benefits of the setting sun, i.e HEAT!).

    So . . .in about a month and a half I see myself up at #35.

    /me checks in rear view mirror, and sees Jammy approaching at a fair speed.

    Time for me to pull a rabbit out the hat or stand aside.

    Thumbs up

    Nice meeting you Thor! I only run one box at night (high electricity here in California) but I run all three during the day. Kinda a lop-sided race, huh?

    Welcome aboard Thor. Good to see someone else from my part of the woods.

    I am sure it will not be long before you are climbing up the rankings.

    Hamburg to Scotland is a quick dip and stroll compared to where most other Free-DC'ers live.

    Don't worry about production figures. All are welcome, and treated the same. Of course there is no harm in adding a few boxen here and there. Thats how most start off.

    Sorry to disappoint you Jammy. I have on XP1800 running DF
    Agent Smith was right!: "I hate this place. This zoo. This prison. This reality, whatever you want to call it, I can't stand it any longer. It's the smell! If there is such a thing. I feel saturated by it. I can taste your stink and every time I do, I fear that I've somehow been infected by it."
