Take it easy, people!  Wait 24 hours before flooding anyone with PM's - I want to be sure there aren't any errors (like giving away more of a prize than existed) before the PM's start.

Its been a fun night and congrats to everyone that won something.  Onward to 3 Billion!

i won a t shirt and lanyard :)

Lets not count 3 billion as a foregone conclusion...we'll see a bit of decline in PPD in the coming days as bucks folders are dropping hard now and as the contest has ended some people are shutting down for maintenance or cost reasons.  Can we do it? Absolutely! But its not guaranteed if we dont keep the our foot on the gas!  Fold on!

GUNS! send me that address.

For everyone that won the shirt+lanyard or mouse combo, please message me so I can get your information and forward it to EVGA. Things I need, your mailing address and if you could send your shirt size, and I will work on getting you your prizes set up asap.

Only if you throw in some of that GPU steroid!!

Huge thank you to everyone involved in setting up and running the TZC yet again and to all the prize donors for donating so many great prizes

My feelings and sentiments exactly!

I can almost taste that 3 billion points now . . . Just imagine the levels we're going to be climbing to after the Pascal boards from nVidia hit the market? Gives me a warm and fuzzy in the cockles of my heart!

Awesome contest. Thanks everyone, and especially Punchy for putting all this together.
 
 

Exactly what species said. Big Thank you!

troy8d and Punchy, congrats on a well run competition.
Congrats to all the winners, unfortunately, I was not one of them this year. Fingerscrossed for next year..
 
It was a bumpy road for some of us with the Core 21 problems, equipment failures,
or just not being able to sit in front of your own computer to see what is going on, but it certainly made it interesting, frustrating but a LOT of FUN... See you all next year for the next TZC.
 
Looking forward to the 3 Billion, Fold on everyone, this will be a record that will be held for some time.....

Are you picking on me.

It was definitely an interesting challenge.

He may not be but I am now that the Eastern Team has dropped to -6% on their PPD.

Nice, looks like I got the FX-8150.  
It probably won't be used for folding though (maybe crunching) since it's power/performance ratio isn't the best compared to my Xeons. But I may end up getting a Crosshair V Formula-Z and see what it can do at subzero temps. 
 
Thanks, Troy8d, Punchy, Drougnor & everyone else for putting together and participating in such a great competition like always.
I'll be chugging along towards the 3 Billion with everyone else with just my 7950 now, these 780 Ti's eat too much power.

• I've gotten the word from Punchy that the prize winner's list has been double checked and is considered final - feel free to start the prize distribution!
• Its up to donors and winners to coordinate getting the prize into the winner's hands, though I am here to assist if any issues come up.
• Despite a few bumps along the way that are completely out of our control, its been a great Time Zone Challenge this year!   
• A HUGE thank you to drougnor, DutchForce, NotFordman, and Punchy for helping organize things; to all those who donated something to make this contest one of the funnest we've had in a while (including EVGA via Scarlet-Tech!); and to every person who took the time and effort to participate in the contest this year!!  
• Maybe we'll do it again next year...
• Onward to 3 Billion!!

tucker147,
I have some other older Xeon's here also,
 
2x E5345's
1x E5504
1x E5530 
 
Any use to anyone??

Depends, just the cpu or is there more?  Power I can spare.  I could use them for crunching, probably not folding due to lack of Video Cards. At least until my EVGA bucks grow fatter.
