didn't evga throw in some gaming or folding shirts at the last CC? I thought they did if I remember right

Not if I remember correctly. I believe that one or two team members had purchased a few ahead of time and sent them to the winners.
 
 
 
 
I had sent an e-mail to Shane asking about any kind of donation that EVGA could possibly make for this. The answer is that EVGA, as a company wide policy, does not donate to community driven initiatives. When you think about it, EVGA does a LOT of giveaways on their own (EVGA Bucks for folding, EVGA Bucks for BRs, EVGA Bucks for Affiliate Code, Affiliate giveaway monthly, MODS RIGS sponsorship, 10th anniversary, 11th anniversary, when we hit #1, other various giveaways every couple of months). It adds up after a while. I can't wait until we pass Default and see what they might have up their sleeves.

They owe us nothing I could go to any other forums and fold for them.  Do they do anything special for their team half the time? NO!  Are they close knit as us?  NO!  I fold for the goodness of which it stands.  I love EVGA they have nothing to be ashamed of.  They promote folding sure but we choose to do so.  They are not forcing to you to fold for them.  Hell I hate to be blunt and mean but if you think it is wrong just fold under your name and give your self a pat on the back.  Bottom line is EVGA and other teams alike have nothing to be ashamed of. What make EVGA's Folding team so grand is the people in it.  You will never find the kind of individuals all in one place like this.  You know how lucky you are to even know half these guys?

Ninja's ALL The Way brother "A". It's nice to have an opportunity for "STUFF" while folding, I guess. But it "IS" Family here first..... and Science.

+1KJ. That being said, I have never believed (in my short tenure here) that anything other than our Family Atmosphere was keeping anyone here. I can do 350K in 10 days. I'm just having HW problems that keep me splitting My PPD over 3 teams. NOT for the CC though.

So it is agreed EVGA will donate one million dollars Australian to the top one hundred prize winners.  Right?  Back me up here Shane. :P

Dead Horse?  Beaten. 
Contest? Right around the corner.
Dusting off pc's to get house ready for folding this weekend?  Absolutely!
 
But, I REALLY do echo patchesanook here, if you HONESTLY believe there needs to be more on the prizes list?  Put something there!!

Really I can win a dead horse!?!?!?
SWEET!!!

While I agree with the facts that they do participate in a lot of giveaways on their own, and Folding @ EVGA is community created/driven, they Could Choose to Participate, such as they did when hitting #1 or further with offering some hardware or swag. I will fold whether or not I get a cookie, in the end for me its all about the work.
I just think it is a shame that they cannot match the generosity of Dutchforce, Barbarossa, yourself, or any of the donors in the list making it happen for that matter.
 
  Ok, Horse=Dead+Beaten, my $.02 input, moving on........

you know if anyone feels the prize pool is not good enough,the easy way to fix it is just get off your but and donate something.

Nothing fancy, but I use the hell out this thing with my monthly cleanings. I figured folders running their systems hard can get a lot of use out of it too and not need to buy canned air. 

Metro Vacuum ED500 DataVac 500-Watt, 0.75-HP Electric Duster

Awesome, I didn't know such a thing suggested.

Fold on!!!!

 
I have one of those exact same units for my systems, they really work great too

When I sign up I the folding name right? And when do we post screen shots everyday or at the end? Also should I donate a psu?
 
Also should I put a low number for the PPD and then maybe over do it? Sorry only been folding for a year or so.

What is a good number?
 

hey rbh this says your avg. is 11,943   http://folding.extremeove...bsp;    and that prize you put up would look sweet in my case
