We still have quite a few of our top power folders who have not made the switch over.  This is hurting us!

As I predicted though... One of the small camps have big producers now and they already have four points in the first 8 hours of the comp... Going to be tough... Time to sweat...

Well I can tell how this is all going to turn out!  I'll give it a couple more days and if I see this continuing I'll be switching my clients back to my name.
 
Then back to playing BC2!

Yeah if our top ten just decided to stop worrying about themselves for 10 days then I think we would not have the problem we have. If your one of those people and you did switch I'm not talking about you. The rest of you can say all you want to me I don't care. Stop worrying about yourself and join us.

Go easy on our leaders. We'd like the participation, but if They're still cranking the Points.... I'm cool with their decision. I'm not willing to lose EVGA team folders for any color of Monkey
 
If you look at the EOC Stats for Team EVGA there seem to be only a couple of the top 20 missing. 50%  of 3000, is harder that 50% of 100.

NOOOOOOOO, We signed on for the duration. That's what TEAMS DO.
 
WIN As Apes or lose that way. Quiting... NOT an option (please?).

Sorry this handicap is really showing its true colors how its going to effect us.  We would need 6-10 more of our top producers to change the outcome at this point in time.  I was already a bit bitter how we were getting being handicapped so heavily.

True enough, Zero.
 
I'm just saying that the EVGApes should not quit for the CC point system.
 
A loss at 100% is better than aWin at 30%. just saying.

I'm not shutting down yet.  I'll hang in there for a few more days.  I just want those that signed up to commit to the CC.  I'm still seeing according to EOC some members still folding under there name still and not EVGApes. 
 
Its just a bit frustrating.  I keep telling myself that I have to look and the big picture and not the petty things that come with contests like this.

Folding for EVGApes for about 15h, only using the GPU, and won't stop until the contest period is over.
I'll switch the CPU also when the last WU is done.

Gizas! what a mess

Re:Official chimp challenge 2011 thread 2011/05/05 22:06:36 (permalink)
Don't forget the contest isn't mandatory, we would love to see all our top guys switch (I did notice a few did over the last few hours).
[H] when they were the #1 team had a lot of in fighting over the CC. As you see they are no longer in the contest.
We don't want that to happen to us.
The best we can do is give it our all until the very end!
We know that folders from other teams are folding for the little guys just so they can beat us. This is a major flaw of the new contest rules. We can't change it so lets just buck up and fold and show the other teams what were made of.

Rig 1- i7 980x @4.1 EVGA 660ti X58  Rig 2- i7 875K @ 4.02 EVGA 2x 470SC, P55

Maybe they "broke" the -bigadv rule?   Naw, I've got one dropping in 3 hours. many took the "Anti-Priming thing" seriously. Or was that simply another "handicap" of the CC?
 
Regardless, We need to "sport" our true EVGApes constitution.
 
FOLD Hard..... FOLD Large
 
There is no other Team I would wish to "Tank" with....
 
That ain't gonna happen (tanking) anyway.

Re:Official chimp challenge 2011 thread 2011/05/05 22:17:31 (permalink)
Im in it for the duration
there is no quiting (unless you lose hardware- machines are down)
 
I want to keep my head held high and said we tried till the end
rocky didn't quit ..
imagine if we had quit in WWII
Imagine if USA was still a british colony (and there as no revolution).
 
Now get your tails out from between your legs and get your mean face on... we mean business and it's monkey business
 
show them what we are made of and put on a good showing
Have some pride for the Team and make the others fear us
 
Now the problem is we need to get the team up
to get as many as the team involved as possible- that's what teams do.
 
if we can't win it's because we couldn't mobilize our troops and get them folding. The Team needs some cohesion and some leadership.
EVGA could have stepped up and help by contacting those that fold by email (simple to do- no costs). They could have also added incentive to keep the crown (like extra evga bucks for those who join)
 
My take is the CC has to change -
get rid of the common folding name and just base it on the full team production. (just take the team numbers for the week or ten days)
 
simplifies signup (there is none - unless you want it for the local evga prize pool)
everyone folding folds for evga,evga bucks, and the crown, while keeping their stats going
don't need passkeys - you fold with your own account and passkey (no switchover to another account)

I am bringing the pain.  The Maniacs are back with a vengeance, and I'm pulling all the P3's with me this time.  Come hell or high water or exploding components, we will try, and I've got everything I can run burning away.

Let's let the CC know (win or lose) that we still will Rock da Fold, regardless.

To keep things running while 200w PSU's explode, I'm coupling P3's together under one PSU.  Problem is when one crashes, I tied all the power and reset buttons together...  You can see the issue.

I just had one crash and now I have to restart all of 'em.  Means another lost 10 minutes of folding.

Just dropped to fifth place...
 
As long as new folders fold and we gain 100+ that stay because of the contest... Then we still win. Period.
 
Thanks for the effort. I appreciate all that you all do.
