- SB: These are fighting words!

[Crazee]

Heck . . .TA is still in shock after we (Ars Technica Team Prime Rib: SOB) took back our rightful #1 position in Seventeen or Bust, lol. They are hiding somewhere. They are cool folks but their SoB team is weak, so expect them to be hiding for quite awhile.

Taken from linky The person making the statement is a BBR Seti participant but an ARS SOB member.

Thanks to MgKnight for showing BBR's class by distancing himself and the rest of BBR from the remarks.

As for the words above - PREPARE TO EAT YOUR WORDS :evil:

"I fear all we have done is to awaken a sleeping giant and fill him with a terrible resolve."

ROAR

A post like this means you just can't help but smile. Hiding, eh? Well, I guess we can show them what the TeAm has been hiding

"No pardon needed . . .each to their own opinion in this case, and in regards to Seventeen or Bust, TA got busted and knocked down a notch and put in their place for even attempting to violate Team Prime Ribs stomping ground (you do know about stomps don't you?).

As far as the stats go, which is important for it is the number of tests crunched that count when racing against another team, TPR:SOB is once again #1!"

From the same person

/me imagines a bunch of geeks in a bitch-slapping virtual hoedown...

well based on those words it seems to be one loose cannon spouting off at the mouth. the TPR team is kicking major ass and ill give them credit where credit is due! they are really producting and are a great challenge. in the end, we'll just do the "talking" with our numbers and leave it at that!

:evil: He'll eat his words, you don't challenge TA and liv to talk about it!

I hope that you guys will not take the words of one member to be representative of Ars SoB team Especially when those words were not even posted on our forum.

At the end of the day, all of us just want to have fun while doing our bit for science. There may be friendly taunts but anything that is mean spirited is generally not tolerated.

I disagree with Jamilla when she says that Anandtech's SoB team is weak. If your team was weak, we woukd never have lost 1st place to you to begin with and we would definately not have taken so long to regain it. Fact is that it took an orchestrated effort to take back first from you...and we are trying our best to keep it this time

I am sure that one day, we will lose 1st again...but then...half the fun is in the chase

I take it that the other half of the fun is being chased?

Its always fun to fun to have competition between teams. In the end its the project that benefits by having additional computers working on it. Hopefully it'll help sb find the last 11 primes quicker.

 

[Allio]

Don't worry, Kenlow. I don't think Jamilla's comments were representative of TPR-SOB or even Jamilla herself. It's all in good fun

 

[RemyCanad]

Hmmm maybe I should give the good capin a call.

 

[Actaeon]

I'm giving all i've got towards the project, but it isn't much .
