Serious question about Team AnandTech

[TheyCallMeSAK]

Since it's been so long since I've been here, this needs to be brought up.


Are the chicks and hot tubs still in place? (hopefully fresh new babes too).


Thanks.

I haven't seen any since my old seti days about 3 years ago.....

Yeah, the hot tub is still there, the beer too and there are abunch of new babes around ...
We have now a castle with a moat and our own power plant and quite a few inhabitants - just take a look here:

ok, I'm still laughing at that pic of raysun...that's the funniest facial expression ever.


What is this "Belt Winner" stuff?


Is it me or is there a copper coldplate on that belt Must be some kinda OCing award

TAS (TeAm AnandTech Sentinels - one of the mini-teams within TA) helps TA by crunching a different project each month and often helps the team to rise in the ranks or to avoid being passed. TAS has created two trophies (belts): one for the winner of a challenge, an other one for the cruncher who has crunched best (=most credits). The winners are supposed to take a pic of themselves and post it ...
Look for more info here: http://www.teamanandtech.net/forums/index.php?act=idx and in the monthly TAS-member thread in this forum.
All to stimulate crunchers to crunch more, to invest more money into new computers, to use more electricity to help humanity.

Edit: Oh yeah, the belts are part of heat sinks, polished and engraved.

When did they change the babes? The old ones had been there for so long that they had started to look like the golden girls.

Must be his turn to dress up as the babe this week



On another curious note. It's quite clear that the pond: http://www.digitalportfolios.o...ges/Fort-DC-713187.jpg

features a yellow mote. I guess you guys REALLY want to keep others out. On a more positive note, there must be plenty of beer inside the castle

Fullmetal Chocobo is quite fond of making home made lemon cello... hence the yellow moat.

The mote? It is filled with lime (or sometimes lemon) cello. In that viscous liquid there are horned trout swimming sluggishly ...
Keep people out? No, we are trying to keep all the computers in!
Can you imagine how attractive a set of computers with a capacity to crunch 150 000 - 250 000 BOINC-credits in a month is? Even the computerized burglar alarm crunches WUs in it's spare time (which - due to the horned trout and limone cello - is approximately is 99% of the time).

Lets not talk about the beer - since there are two breweries in there. Hmmm? you did not know about that? Well, I just found them in the cellar, together with some really nice port!
Ahhhhh, hot tub, babes and a glass of old port.

 

[Assimilator1]

Ahhh I love a glass or 2 of Port
