[Shuxclams]

First thing I did was check to see if Grant was trying to do anything funny but that appears not to be the case.

Wonder what is though....off to find out.

 

[Baldy18]

Actually it looks like this

702) Bandai @ Malaysia 23768 22.170 years 8 hr 10 min 15.1 sec

member joined them making him their new top producer. He also shortened his name to just "Bandai".

 

[samburgers]

Hehe...I see that you guys noticed!!

Look at this!! http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,1392121;root=seti;mode=flat

OUR TOP SETI@Home user too!!!

WOOHOO!

 

[Dingas]

Hmmm, well this is wack 23k units, I think unless we can get a member like that too join, only one we can pull this back in our hands is if we get some help from the other DC projects, Kinda like this:

If someone runs seti under my email until the race is over, I will run rc5 under there email for the same amount of time....
Im on a 1.33 tbird at 1.5 btw, if anyone with a similar machine will take me up on this..

 

[Baldy18]

Thats exactly the thread I got my info from.

Looks like this is really getting interesting. Maybe we should have raced you guys sooner.

 

[Corsairpro]

I was gonna shut off my comp for the night.... not now!!! Damn this thing makes my room warm!!!!!

 

[Wiz]

/off to find ameesh

 

[Fardringle]

Hehe! Yeah, that would definitely shorten up the ETA on this race! Good luck, Wiz!

 

[Baldy18]

Whats up with the graph? [edit] seems to be back the way it was now.

I can't possibly go to bed now.

 

[RichieZ]

good lord!

Did that guy join w/ more wu's than we had in the race?

 

[bunker]

<< /off to find ameesh >>


He he, I pm'ed him about it too!

 

[Baldy18]

Did that guy join w/ more wu's than we had in the race?

Appeares that he joined with ~23,800wu and we currently have ~18,800wu, so yes he joined with ~5,000wu more than we have produced so far in the race.:Q

 

[Wiz]

So where did that guy come from? Is some other team down by 23K units now?

 

[n0cmonkey]

Ok, please dont make me go out and buy a new computer... Im happy right now... And broke, and Im saving for clawhammers. Someone get this situation fixed... Please, for my wallet

 

[IBhacknU]

Not a big deal really. I mean, if they want to play that way, we can just find someone to 'join for the day', push us over the top, and we claim victory.

 

[Baldy18]

IBhacknU- Not sure I understand what you are getting at but I think that we should be congratulating DSLR on their great assimilation and looking for noble way of countering. If you are suggesting that this is some type of foul play then I don't see where you are coming from because I don't see any evidence that either team is using unfair means to up their production. This simply an assimilation of enormous magnitude and they should, as I said before, be congratulated on having such good fortune.

 

[FrontlineWarrior]

that's so lame. if this race is going to end up being just a recruiting race for people who ALREADY have lots of WU's, then I wonder, what's the point of having a race at all? What's the point of me cranking out my puny 3 WU's a day if we're just going to be recruiting people to change teams? That's ridiculous.

 

[Baldy18]

Is it rediculous that as a result of this race Team Anandtech have averaged ~4750wu/day since the race has started?

New assimilations mean more potential for higher output. Both teams will be made stronger by this race.

I know, I know.... Frontline Warrior makes a good point. Personally I'm in this race to maximize production (without getting fired). I applaud the efforts of all teams. Please don't take my comments the wrong way.

 

[ElFenix]

mmmm... maximized production...
would still like to find a few 5 or 6k users to even things back up.

 

[Wiz]

Well I'll be upping my personal production buy 2 or 3 units a day as soon as my new cpu arrives!
Not much but every little bit helps!!!

 

[IBhacknU]

Well, if every active member could bring on another 3 WU's per day, we'd be looking at what..... 750 more WU's per day.
