Thank you for the clarification.

OK so (Please feel free to correct me if I am mistaken) it looks like the date is set and we are a go, minus the details of the scoring correct?

If so we need to get started with our recruiting right away!!! We need to announce CC's return, and date in a separate thread with details to follow...

Please do start that Ab. If I knew what to do I would have already started. We're just waiting on votes on the scoring and the system itself. Since Adak left though I think our vote will be a 3 way, lol. Me, Zodac, and leroy

Id settle for something just to have it
if we don't settle for something soon we might as well wait til fall
 
we can always try to see if 9-1 will fly,if not then Id take the other
we can always tinker with the formula a little next year
 
it's a hell of a lot better than last years

So even though troy, XZ and I have spoken in favor of the 9-1 point system, and even Zodac was okay with it, our team's vote will be for the min-max system?

Ummmmm no, I am voting for the the 90- 10 system.  I think people will be happier with it.

Okay great!  I got confused by your clarification note.  The scoring in post 786 is min-max, the scoring in 787 is 90-10.  The post number is at the bottom which makes things confusing.

I am not looking to be the one to start the CC thread. That is for the Captains to do. They have put forth a LOT of effort and have the privilege to do so. I only asked about it to make sure I was understanding where we are...

I have posted a thread announcing the CC, what else do I need to do as far as that? Remember Im new at this. I dont know what you guys usually do at this point.

what usually happens is we keep telling people about it
(remind remind remind)
 
not everyone come to this part of the forums
so things that must be done
 
post in general discussions..ie a sticky (so people that don't know about it to get involved - and we get new folders as well as other folders that haven't folded in awhile or unaware of the contest)
 
 
post in folding discussions(already have)
post in contest forum (already have)
 
troy has a contest PM list of people to contact for contests
(he usually does some , he has asked me in the past to do some of it occasionally)

I was wondering about doing that texinga but can I make a sticky thread here without being a mod?

You make it, I will sticky it.

Here´s my thread from last year

You can use it as reference/inspiration.
 
You´ll need guys to send pms for recruiting, and a way to distribute the passkey.
I still have the ones we used last year, and they should still be good, so no need to request and prime new ones.

Here's a couple of threads from CC 2011 that should be quite helpful as "templates" for a CC 2012 Official thread.

Thanks guys. Are we having prizes this year? Do you know Xavier?

Umm I can do the Pm's and help distribute the passkey. I just dont who to PM yet... Also can anyone make a graph for me that uses the format and is converted to HTML so I can insert it as a widgit into my website? I think I may have to reopen that project, if I dont hear back from ChrisK soon about HWC's website.

I see you already have a passkey distribution team.
I´ll send them out to them soon. They´re on my home computer and I´m at work...

Theyre the ones that make the most sense. All of us are on all the time or at least enough to be able to handle it.

How do i get ahold of Shane? i cant figure out which admin he is. I need to ask him about the EVGA Bucks immunity for CC.

One of these two ways are usually suggested to contact Shane at EVGA:
 
PM him:
http://forums.evga.com...file.aspx?memid=456633
 
Email him:
webmaster@evga.com

just use your passkey with the EVGApes name and run the usual 10 smp wus.
If you don´t want to do that let us know and you´ll get one of the pre primed passkeys

Whats that Mean?
