Congratulations to all of you!


It has been nothing but a pleasure to sponsor this event for TeAm DF and enjoy all the support each of you have given to me along the way.
I hope everyone will also offer up thanks to muttley and FoBot for their generous prize donations and please, please don't
overlook m0ti for the advise he gave in helping to set up our rules, and his terrific cooperation with posting our race stats and
everything else he does for us! Thank You m0ti!


OK, now for the boreing stuff:

To claim your prizes, you simply provide the donor of your prize the shipping address and method you prefer and we'll take it from there!
Please remember you are responsible for shipping costs (sorry, If I could swing it, I would)

I highly recommend you NOT place personal information in the forums!!!!!!! use PMs. If you are more comfortable, you may provide me an
e-mail address (using a PM) and we can correspond that way.

Trading prizes is allowed. Just make sure the original winner PMs me of his wish for you to receive the prize assigned to him/her and
then treat it as if you won it in the first place.

Finally, if you would prefer to decline your prize, please let me know ASAP so I may (randomly) award it to someone else. If you are donating
your prize to parties not associated with ATWE, please make sure to notify me and have the recipient provide me shipping info. (make sure they know they are paying shipping costs please)

For those receiving prizes donated by muttley or FoBoT, you need to make your arrangments with them.

I love you ALL,

-Sid

 

[Insidious]

oh yeah, those scores are from yesterday night, but that is
what distributedfolding.org was showing at noon today

****************************************************************

edit: For the shipping, I think I can have the shipper collect on delivery.
I'm not comfortable with putting my bank acct. info into paypal.

If worse comes to worse, I'll front it and include a self'd envelope for a money order in your box
and we can settle up that way.

I'll say the same but make it a bold... Special thanks to sid and m0ti for running things too!!!

I'll get back to ya on my award. Need to contact someone as far as where it goes.

 

[Builderz]

Woohoo! *pats self and other ATWE racers on back* Thank you very much, Sid and m0ti, for all of the time and hard work you have put into ATWE and the stats. You are both extremely dedicated.

I didn't think I was going to win anything, but it looks like I got a Thermaltake Dragon Orb Heatsink. I really don't need it (I have at least two decent heatsinks lying around). If anyone else would like it (for yourself, for a friend, or for DC boxen), it is up for grabs.

 

[Freewolf]

Thanks to sid, mOti, FoBoT, muttley, and everyone else for a great and fun race. let all keep folding after all thats what it's all about.
Builderz I will trade you oni for the hs/f if you want. I don't play much games ( slows down the crunching you know )

 

[m0ti]

Thank you, Sid, first of all for coming up with this idea, and for fronting the prizes.

Thanks also to FoBoT, and muttley for making the prize list bigger.

Finally, thanks to all the ATWE racers for making it fun and for causing my fingers to be able to type out ATWE in less than 0.001 seconds after typing it out so many times!

 

[deerslayer]

Congrats to you all!

 

[Zim Hosein]

WOW! that's amazing Insidious :Q

Congrats to everyone who participated

 

[bunker]

I also want to add my thanks to m0ti sid, and Fobot for all their work before and during the race, and to anyone else that donated prizes.

You guys make this stuff fun .

Bunker wins an IStorm PC Air Conditioner (5 1/4" bay front mount)

I got mine (Pro) from Microcenter for $319 when they had a sale a while back. I'm pretty sure you can find one for around that price now without sales.

[joinT]

GREAT Job guys. Over 1 billions folds in 90 days ?!?! :Q That's almost 1.5 million folds PER DAY. F00King insane! brilliant~! I haven't got enough good things to say about this.

Supreme & Ultimate Congrats must go to Sid, for organizing & jump-starting the whole thing.

Thanks to Kevin & Muttley for providing some great consolation stuff.

Thanks as everyday to m0ti for providing us with our stats fix.

Builderz If you're interested in the ata66 raid card, LMK

 

[Builderz]

Freewolf, thanks for the offer, but I already played Oni many moons ago. I've been playing too much Return to Castle Wolfenstein and Command and Conquer Generals as it is.

joinT: I would be interested in the RAID card (could put it to good use), but is a heatsink really a fair trade? LOL.

 

[CrazySaint]

WOOHOO! Great race, guys! And a great big thanks to Sid and m0ti for making it happen!

I've got my eye on that Tachyon by Tyan. I like the idea of the better cooling and hardware monitoring ability built into their tools. The cheapest I've seen it is $346 shipped. I almost hit the "submit order" button a few times but chickened out. Maybe today will be the day?

LOL, which way do you mean ? I've been out of FS/FT for quite a while. If you're saying the raid card is worth more, well I don't care
If you're saying the HSF is worth more - well by all means trade for something else. I don't have much else to add but very small things (tiny heatsinks, rounded cables, etc.) But I just really don't need the raid card. If we don't work something out, I'll probably just donate it to a beowulf project or someone on the DC team who can use it.

Man, did we forget to send you some vital information or something Sid ?









ps. Muttley - i haven't sent you my address since I'm in Canada & I might try to trade the card - or just end up giving it to another DC member (who would hopefully be in the states to save you some shipping costs )

 

[Builderz]

joinT: Sorry, I should have been more clear. I was trying to say, in my opinion, that the RAID card was worth more than the heatsink and I wanted to make sure I wasn't "ripping you off" with the trade. I know the RAID card isn't the latest model/spec, but I've seen them cost over $100 USD while the highest priced heatsink I've seen was about $40 USD. You need a heatsink, I'd like the Promise RAID card, let's make the trade.

Thanks to all who donated prizes, BTW.

 

[joinT]

Builderz YGPM. Muttley - once he PM's me his addy, I'll send it to you.
Sid, did you donate the HSF ? I'm gonna get it sent to my buddy Geoff.

thanks again to those who donated prizes.

 

[Insidious]

yepperz the HSF will be commin' from me.

(I'm going to FedEx in just a couple hours.... If I can get the address in time, I can get it out today!)
