That's a lot of it...make sure your team is off to a good start (as we saw in the TZC there are always a few folders that forget to turn their rig on day 1 and need a gentle PM to remind them), and keep an eye on your team (in the past each team made a thread to motivate, strategize, and trash talk the other teams) - occasionally there is someone that has catastrophic hardware failure or signs up but never folds in the contest.  Just let me know if that happens so we can make adjustments if necessary so your team does not have an uncompetitive disadvantage.
 

The hardest part is coming up with the team name...
 
If you decide you wanna do it, I'm cool with whatever name you choose (as long as its not inappropriate).  Also, I linked a previous contest in the first post with teams people have if you need inspiration or want to adopt one of the previous teams name, banner, etc.

I'm game. Any volunteers for co-captain, if we're doing that, haha.

For a team name, how about "The Going-All-In Folders" (which may not be the best poker advice)

Is that you volunteering as captain?

Yup - I historically have had to lean on my co-captains a LOT because of work/fighting with the stats, but it's really not a LOT of focused work. 
 
Speaking of, has anyone SEEN or heard from Klaas (DutchForce) lately?

checked their profile, last log in was July 22, 2020, so chances of them showing up if no one has a way to contact them seems slim.
 
As for being a Captain/co-captain, I might be willing to give it a try. not sure what all it involves, checking the stat server to see if some team members haven't started, then PMing them a reminder to start?

That's what I'm gathering.
And some trash talk in a thread I guess, haha.

"COOL" er PIMPS you mean ....
 
yeah Folding dragons/Crunching Tigers will be there in some form I think

I was going to use that name, crunching tigers and all. 
But we decided to go with "EVGA DC Strike Force".  
Like the badge far left in my BOINC signature.
 

Nice choice bill, I like it.

+1 but
will be taking a leave for a bit due to current situations.

Hope everything is OK! 

Not interested in being Captain...
"Han Shot First"
might be a good name for a team..
You are welcome to use it..
I know I can relate to that group

I'm all for a contest.
But let the record show that Han shot Greedo. Not first, the only shot. There was no second shot.

Am I not captaining any more?

I don't know if I could/should captain, but I'm down to fold for any team that'll have me

You can and should captain a team!  Got any ideas for your team name? 

Idk man, got so much going on at work, but if nobody else will, how about The Unforgiven Folders?
What is it I need to do, just motivate folks on the team that aren't folding?

The Unforgiven Folders!
Or Unforgiving Folders

Im thinking Unforgiving Folders. Yea, that one has a better ring to it.

Sorry for the confusion earlier, I wasn't sure if you had decided you wanted to go ahead and do it or not.  Added the Unforgiven Folders captained by un4givn85 to the contest! 

EVGA DC Strike Force...where the DC = Distributed Computing.

and its Crunching Tigers/Folding Dragons (crouching tiger/hidden dragon was the movie)
