    Unhappy Production down - Position 2 looking good

    Once the dust settled after the recent spate of team jump, we landed back in the #1 spot.

    The problem is our production is well down on Ars Team Stir Fry and KWSN.

    Latest daily production according one of the stats gods (statsman) show the figures as:-

    Ars Team Stir Fry = 9,424,048

    KWSN = 9,321,043

    FreeDC = 7,076,239

    Our main threat is KSWN who are only 1,723,787 structures behind us.

    It does not take a genius to work out how long it will take to overtake us.

    If we are to keep the #1 spot we need to ramp up production quiet a bit, or are we happy to be an also ran.

    When xj10bt comes back, we will be way ahead again. Just add his totals to ours until he does.

    It would be nice if we could at least match their production tho.

    ECCp and DNET are coming to an end, we should be able to rally support from those tired veterans as those events take place.

    Changing protiens every week is a bit much, and surely does not help with getting folks to stick with the project.

    I wish we had a month or two of breathing room...
    I have every box devoted to ECCp and DNET because they are ending soon, and I'm helping to bring them projects to a close quicker

    IronBits, Looking forward to the arrival of the troops

    It must be me, but I have never counted on anything until it arrives. You never know xj10bt might find the seating more comfortable over at NM

    I will do my bit to help keep the Knights from taking over our castle. Should have another 2.7Gb of power to bring on line within the next fews days.

    Lets see if we can add a few more boxen,. Just enough to match their production

    Lets say Ni! to the Knights.

    Nah, I'll be back soon. I think I'm gonna stop DC for a while, but I'll park my stuff back home (up on blocks in the front yard)

    That'll be cool. There's our breathing room!

    Now all we gotta do is get our production up, so the Ni-sayers and the stir-fryers don't mow us down while xj10bt's on vacay.

    WTF!!!! I leave for a week and what happens? :bs:

    I knew DATA wouldn't stay... but I never thought we would lose xj...oh well.

    At least my boxes updated correctly for the last protein. And I've got another box borged as well. It's not mu,ch but I be keeping up my end.

    Glad to be back though...I missed my apartment and my boxes I couldn't sleep without the whine of fans in the background

    So how be everyone?

    All Team Members

    Can we get all of you that have more than one boxen,
    to toss at least one back on to DF for a short period of time?
    Except Paratima and Dyyryath of course

    guru buddy, we would be extremely pleased if you would toss just 10 boxen on this project.
    Even if it borks now and again, it wouldn't be too hard to maintain? please...

    Good to see extra firepower from Supp. IronBits and Dyy, plus glad to see China get his fleet back up and running.

    I will be adding about 3Ghz to my tally in the near future.

    Not bad between 5 peeps we have well over 20Ghz of additional folding power (not sure how much Dyy is adding)

    I'm gonna go out on a limb here and gestimate we need about 20 1.4 GHz AMD type boxen to match the output of our competitors.
    I'll be adding an additional 1.2 GHz and 1.53 GHz, when FedEx shows up this morning with my shiney new XP1800+.
    Keep up the good work guys, we can do this!

    As it happens, IB, all my hardware is already on DF right now.

    HOWEVER, since I know it's so important to you, I'll just go out and find a couple more logs to throw on the fire, anyway.

    See you soon, if you get my meaning...

    Great news

    Should have 1.8XP up and running by weekend, a Celeron 400 during the week (hey, we need all we can get ) and I will see what the finances are like for this month and maybe get another 1.8XP in the next couple of weeks.

    Because of the fussy security auditors kicking up a fuss not only have my plans for borging a heavy lab gone down the drain I can't even use my workstation anymore until they finish their stupid audit . Fortunately my boss is pretty cool and will probably ok some light borging after this silly audit business is finished.

    Don't get too comfortable Angus, with the extra boost I had from work I managed to get the lead for a while. If you start slacking off I might just take it back.
    Not to mention Chinasaur, Mashrinx and dibldabl who seem to be gunning for both of us.

    We are still #4 in daily production.

    Statsman has a meeting of KWSN and our total production for sometime in the middle of september.

    We need to increase our output by about 1,500,000 structures per day, just to stay even with KSWN. Thats a lot of fire power.

    JTrinkle is on vactaion...
    FoBoT is taking a short breather...
    guru, well, he's around someplace...
    beth133 is keeping an eye on things...
    Condor has a sign on his desk that says "gone fishing"...
    Alot of the other folks appear to be wandering around...
    This last Server outage screwed up alot of things...
    /me stands on street corner waving sign -
    Then there is a
    1.4 GHz AMD XP that will be back in a week.
    1.6 GHz AMD XP that my brother just bought
    I have room for 2 more 1.6 GHz AMD XP Duals
    (Shhh! Don't tell Dyyryath or Paratima.)
