Thanks for the update, that tracking website looks like a handy tool; good to see your beta testing it before the contest

Countdown timer to the start. 1 day 11 hours 16 min from this post. https://www.timeanddate.c...ont=sanserif&csz=1The PG PPSE challenge is over so I will start warming up the GPU for some folding. I should fire up the 4P for old times sake, little nostalgia. Lot of money to get 800,000 PPD back in the day.

Realtime monitoring stat added (every 5 or 10 mins): https://ehwfoldingstats.lazypenguin.com/26 for tomorrow's challenge. No fancy graphs, just tabulated cumulative total points since the start of the race. Final team standing will be determined using EOC team stat. Race starts in less than a day per this countdown timer. Please visit [H]ard|OCP challenge thread and post any comments, questions or discussions. Good luck and have fun!

....... it depends on when your Points update after the Start time  Maybe some timed their start / I just kept the peddle down ... updates happen when they happen kerryd

If you really want to know, just look them up https://stats.foldingathome.org/donor Yes, there are those who can out produce my PPD. (that is not news) We have no idea how the others fund their "folding @ home" equipment (own, rent, borrow, use third party's servers) or the associated electric bill; but, we are happy they choose to Fold! Think of it like golf, you're really just competing with yourself .... CoolGTX (World) Rank 16 of 3,011,202 & closing fast on 100 BILLION points earned  ....... I can live with others folding even harder than my budget allows ... "for the Greater Good!"

Well guys, I don't know what's going on. I am "just keep folding" but not in the stats. I have reached out to help find out. I am also folding for one of our fallen teammates, and don't see them on there either. #sad panda is sad. Crank them up if you got them!!

Thanks for the replies. It was probably a timing thing. I agree with your sentiment CoolGTX: "for the greater good".

I was able to crank up my spare log as well. Normally don’t run it because it isn’t very efficient anymore but 1080 ti still has a decent kick.
