I sent Farthestkris a PM in steam, so he should see that if he doesn't come on the forum. I have Muskie32 on steam as well but he is offline at the moment.

troy8d AzN-SoLjA Lol that 560 in the pool is suppose to be a 660 equivalent upgrade, or in this case a basic 680 I presume. Heck I'd throw in the difference for the SC with backplate just to have it lol and buy the hoodie for XZ. 2/18/12 - DutchForce has generously offered to upgrade two EVGA Ti 560s to 660s if as a community we meet the contest goals.
Unfortunately we did not meet the stated contest goals as DutcchForce indicated. Wasn't the goal 700m? Or was there also a certain number of members to recruit too? I know we bested the 24h average goal easily. The 800m target was added afterwards so i'm assuming that's separate.

We beat 2 of the 3 goals - Over 25 Million points in a single day, over 700 Million points for the month. The one we DIDN'T get was over 1400 active folders at any point during the month.

I just sent Muskie32 a PM on steam about him missing competetive picks. drougnor We beat 2 of the 3 goals - Over 25 Million points in a single day, over 700 Million points for the month. The one we DIDN'T get was over 1400 active folders at any point during the month. I would blame the GTX 680 launch for that last one not making it, people sold off thier older cards to buy them is why it dropped quite a bit.

Ehhh no need to get upset about anything. Main purpose for this was to fold as fast hard and as much as we can! =P We should all be happy that we still have the prizes we have. Still a bunch of awesome prizes IMO.

Oh, I know for sure that if I win the prize I'm trying for, it'll do a lot of good. Would allow me to banish Celeron Crush to an eternity of folding and acting as a print-server.

That CPU and mobo aren't in either the general or competitive prize pools right? I just want to make sure I didn't screw up my selection. Thanks in advance

The CPU and mobo are a random draw as long as you meet the gift requirements.

2/20/12 - An anonymous donor has offered the following gift if we get at least 120 members signed up for the contest:
- A new 8 core FX 8120 CPU with a Asrock 990 FX motherboard shipped to North America
- If the winner is outside North America, $200 by paypal
- Per the donors request, this will be randomly given away to one lucky contestant at the end of the contest. All entrants that meet the gift requirements will be eligible to receive it. This will also be independent of all other gift distribution (i.e. will not inhibit your ability to win something else).
Congratulations to DutchForce, who won this gift in a drawing separate from either gift pool drawing! Both gift pools have been drawn and passed along to Punchy. As soon as he decides to close the selection process, the gift winners will be announced!

I will be able to post the first 7 picks from the General pool, and likely all the picks from the Competitive pool, within a few hours. Then we will be stuck in the quandary of how much longer to wait for the 6 contestants who have not yet entered their choices.

After discussing with troy, we will give the final 7 contestants until tomorrow to make their picks. I have sent PMs again to all of them, but I think it's reasonable to draw the line at waiting a week from the time the picking process became available. This time I had the sense to put read receipt requests on the PMs, and will treat a read PM without picks as a pass. Fortunately, the missing picks do not affect the draw for the competitive pool, since there are only 5 gifts in that pool. Therefore, we can now announce the winners from that pool: - Afterburner gets EVGA GTX560 Ti SC (Standard or DS version - winner's choice) donated by DutchForce
- OLD-SLO-GAMER gets $25 Paypal donated by tanner2
- chris619 gets EVGA - GeForce 210 - Passive Heatsink (512-P3-1213-LR) donated by rjbelans
- nik0888 gets Brink - PC-DVD Game - Code works on Steam too donated by rjbelans
- Hockyman gets L4D2 steam gift donated by AlexisRO
Congratulations to the winners, and a big thank you to the donors!

Whooow... I didn't expect that... THANK YOU anonymous donor!!! And thanks everyone!!! And Congratulations to Afterburner and ALL other winners of the Competitive pool!!! I've also decided to upgrade those GTX560 Ti SC's to GTX680 SC's. We didn't met the goal of 1400 active members, which was the same goal as last years Madness contest, but I didn't realize that we already had much less active members at the beginning of the contest this year... And we exceeded our Monthly Production goal with almost 100Million!!! I will be away this weekend with no (or very limited) internet access, so I will contact the winner of the General pool on monday or tuesday.
