Getting there - new elements to the contest this year make updating the site take much longer than usual.  The pages for individual team stats should be done (hopefully).

How often do you plan on updating the stats?

Time to blow the dust out of these cards by cranking them UP! The Kraken? Is about to be PIMP slapped on it's way out the door! With a bit of STANK on it, so Zeus knows just what he's released!

That wonderful magic happens every hour around 25 to 35 minutes past the hour, as long as Stanford's end is holding up. I don't mess around on my stats. I want those numbers I push to be as minty fresh as possible! d

WOW! I would think that every 4 ours would be enough.

*chuckles* If Stanford released it more often than that, I'd also be doing the same. I got into the stats because back in 2010, Zerran2001 was publishing hourly updates manually for the chimp challenge - Literally coping and pasting the points every hour as they were pushed - Which ate up a bit of time and required someone to be willing to be available 24/7 because of the nature of the contest, 3 hours between updates wasn't enough.
So, I kept that philosophy. Let's get the points as fresh as possible to ensure if we have a 'photo finish' we're able to break it down as narrowly as possible.

Should be all set with most of the stats now. Drougnor will kick them to zero after the midnight update and game on!

And this means that you're going to be under a microscope if your points don't start moving soon . . . ;-) No pressure, y'all, but GET FOLDING!

Unless of course you're in the Central Time Zone - in which case you might want to rest up those rigs for a few days...

Hopefully things will work properly when d flips the switch back to zero tonight - if things are off don't panic (again unless you're in CTZ in which case you should panic and unplug your computer regardless). I've got an early morning so I won't be awake at the start this year, but I'll be around as soon as possible to work out any kinks.

I have my systems running. They should reset just before midnight eastern, so points will not count toward Nov 1, central time.
I have all rocket boots engaged, one 1070 and 2 980ti's running. My electric bill will panic here in the near future. Let's destroy another record this year... Mmkayyyyy?

1070 Folding, Check
switched Image output on iGPU, Check
720p Screen to make iGPU bearable, Check
Win 7 Update service disabled, Check.
Decided to go Full Power and Fully Isolate my 1070 from the PC to get as much points instead of it being Taxed by the system, GL to Everyone!

Also, on the off chance the Google sheets don't update right, I'm keeping local copies of data so I'll update and kick what needs kicking when I wake, but we should be 100% automatic at this point.

How can you be 2 hours late when we have only been going for 44 minutes?
