I joined the team!
I won't lie, during my search for gold ribbons I seen a post/article/something.. that said EVGA gave away $60,000 worth of EVGA bucks to folders. So I had to figure out what the heck folding was so I could get my share. :P
The more I read and learned the more I realized what a great cause it is. I could care less about the EVGA bucks now. My rig sits idle a good portion of the day, so this is great use of my hardware while I'm at school/work!
Couple quick questions I had if someone doesn't mind:
1. Do my folding points show up under my user name (like where your post count, location, ribbons, etc are) here on the forums automatically or is there something i need to do on my end?
2. My first WU said it was worth 500-ish points, and after completing I checked my profile online and I was awarded 90-ish points. I noticed there's a preferred deadline, and a final deadline. Should I be aiming to complete the WU in between these deadlines for max points? or am I missing something here? (Edit: After the Stanford site updated my points look more like what I expected. 8 WUs complete @ ~6000 points (7 @ ~500 + 1 @ ~2500 = ~6000).
Thanks in advance!
