    IronBits makes his move

    /me does the friendly wave to Dyyryath and the obligitory

    /me watches the sparks flying from Dyyryath's dragging muffler in the rear view mirror
    Looks up and sees Guru just ahead and begins to do the friendly wave, all the while, loosening his muffler
    Takes a quick glance down the road at FoBoT and can't see him sitting on the side of the road letting his engine cool off anymore
    Makes note about Condor still being a FORD and prepares to do the friendly wave.
    /me glances over in the toolbox and discovers a new XP1800 and a 1.2AMD sitting there waiting to be installed
    Go TEAM Go!!!

    i am going to get passed by xman today or tomorrow and lose #10 spot overall

    my shorter term goals are to hit 1000 in SETI and 100,000 in RC5 anyway
    Use the right tool for the right job!

    You earned it IB



    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."

    Hey! Can I have my hat back? You blew past me so fast you nocked my hat off.

    Congrats on the new found speed.

    Thanks guys!

    Ars is making another bid for 1st place.
    They have begun recruiting from their other teams
    This protien is FAST, other teams are taking advantage of the high number yield for this week by shifting folks from their other projects/teams to this project, then they go back to what they were doing when this FAST one is over.

    We need more steady help if we plan on keeping this one.

    This week is one of the best I've seen so far to run this client.
    Get yer boxen on this project while it's HOT!

    We are doing an outstanding job to get this far!
    What we need right now is some extra effort during these FAST protein runs like this.
    So if you got em, move yer boxen over to this project.
    I know I know, your tired, don't have any spare time, sick of the client because of the weekly change ups, BUT, dig deep down and give it that extra extra for a week...
    In another month, the project will stop switching every week, so this problem will be pretty much nil.

    You ain't just a-woofin'.

    Looks to me like we need to be doing around 1 million structures/hour, right now, to stay ahead.
    (We're a couple hundred thousand short.)

    However, I am pleased to note that our newest member, Jamyn, is about to pass that crucial first million mark. This is good!

    Amen! With a protein like this one, it's rainin' gold & jewels and we're out here with buckets.

    Don't be caught with your hands in your pockets at a time like this! :sleepy:

    As reported by the most excellent Statsman:

    Team Stir Fry....active members 147......points last week 85 million
    KnightsWSNi!............................ 45 ............................. 99 million
    us............................................. 36 ............................. 82 million

    IB, is there anything we can do to stir up xj10bt (who was doing so well the last couple weeks ),
    Dyyryath, and/or JTrinkle? We need some PHARM POWER!

    ...or maybe recruit 100 new members?

    Dunno, I'm sure xj10bt is burned out on the weekly change ups, can't get no competition...
    your guess is as good as mine.
    Altho, he is right behind DATA in the top ten chart.

    My 3rd RMA'd Tyan Dual S2460 arrived DOA. Bad memory slots again!
    Keep up the battle folks, I'll get it going maybe by next WEEK-END, ugh!

    Well, that RMA'd board arrived DOA.
    Waiting for another return Maybe this Friday...

    I went ahead and re-created my pharm list anyways.

    Everyone except Dyyryath and JTrinkle can look.

    That there is one sweet suite! Guess I should work up a list.
    I'll use your format.

    Too bad about the DOA.

    Just put another Dual on the fire.
    Shiny new ASUS A7M266-D with a couple of 1.2s I had lying around from the previous upgrades.
    The Tyan Dual is on it's way back from RMA hell, and IF it posts, it will be a Dual XP1900

    Rock On IB!!!

    So how do we find other people with your enthusiasm and dedication?
    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."

    As long as I can do 40-45% of IronBit's total output I'm feeling good

    Cheers m8's

    :shocked: :sleepy: :shocked:
    HALF ?
    /me backs up ducking like crazy

    That 4th Dual was never meant to be I guess. (yet)
    That Tyan S2460 arrived DOA 4 times,
    so I called it quits and demanded a refund.

    I'm very happy and pleased with anyone that can do a steady output of any kind.
    And we'll gladly take any points someone wants to just park here permanently to.

    You know, after the 2nd RMA I'd start to wonder if it was something on my end.

    Ya, me to, except I have 2 other Tyan S2460s identical to it that are running.
    I used all them good running parts to test it with just to make sure I wasn't losing my mind.
