Good lord, you guys and gals (Yeah, I know there aren't many vocal female members of our little folding family, but they have been here in the past and I refuse to discount their quiet presence in the now) make me SO freaking proud!
I walked in here with a gauntlet, not an overly modest challenge, set it in the middle of the floor and stepped away. I made some noise, did a little dance and shone a light upon the gauntlet.
And EACH and EVERY SINGLE ONE of you GLORIOUS Funky Folders picked that gauntlet up and smashed me across the jaw!
I've just managed to sit down for decompression time after returning home and found out that 100% for sure, we're going to beat the 3 billion points monthly goal, but we're going to do it with a little extra on the side, JUST to put some stank on it!
I love each and every single one of you!!

116,409,959 points away @ 11 PM CST, one update for day left. The team has been folding in the upper 90 million PPD. One of the things that has me impressed is we never really lost any steam around mid-month. Way to fold EVERYONE!  I'm way over due for a bit of gaming...having withdrawal's. :)

Each and every time I hear someone denigrate our power as "Those are just the 'bux folders'!", you sick mother-funkers step up and smack the non-believers down! When we put our will to it, time and time again, we've proven that the DEDICATED EVGA FOLDERS are a MONSTER to contend with!

It's all good as long as you don't expect this kind of output every month from now on in, right?

3 billion points!  An incredible accomplishment that represents increasing our folding points more than 20% over the prior month (in a month with one less day!). Even more impressive is that more than 1 billion of those points came from just over 70 contest participants (and many of the top top 20 folders did not participate in the contest). I am always amazed by what this team can accomplish when it puts in a collective effort. What a way to end the month that started with what may have been the best TZC ever - certainly the most competitive and most enjoyable TZC I have been participated in. Thanks to everyone who folded this month, whether your contribution was big or small you helped make this milestone possible! PS: I've been toying with the idea of bringing back the Folding M@Dness contest in the spring...nothing has been decided yet but at the moment I am inclined to take a bit of a break (it takes a surprising amount of time and effort to get these contests together) and focus a bit on increasing my own individual production.

Well, my electric bill just arrived and it didn't hurt as much as I thought it would. Only $77.53 is 550 Kw which is below my monthly average but higher than last year's usage.

I turned my heater off, and the pc kept upstairs warm, so I am interested to see my bill.

I'm game for an early spring contest when it's still cool outside. It gets way too hot in here for Spring and Summer Folding. Heck, I hardly even game in the hot months.

Ok, ladies and germs, last stats related update for the TZC 2015!
As of the end of the month update that just happened, 11:00pm EST, the participants of the TZC folding an amazing 1,128,072,138!
This was accomplished by 78 out of 584 currently active folders. That's a little less than 13.5% of the team producing OVER a full 1/3 of the points for the month for our team! This goes to prove the power of our in house folding contests!
And, for those of you keeping track at home, my stats show our monthly total for November (From 00:00 on the 1st of Nov, EST to 23:00 on the 30th of Nov, EST) to be 3,070,409,254 points!
And this is where I lock down my stats records, shut down the recording activities and let you all know the raw data is out there for anyone to check on at any time - Just give me a nudge if/when you want to see it, and I can provide a link.
And as far as future contests go, as I've said many times, if someone has an idea, and my humble stats can be of service, let me know. I'm game to pimp numbers for any reason!
