WTG guys and gals. You gave it a hard push and did very well. If you would have asked anyone over here three weeks ago if they would ever be on the losing end of any folding contest, you would hear snickers and boos. The chimp challenge is no walk in the park. You have to really be prepared...
I wholeheartedly agree with what Marty says. I don't go near the FCF forums because of his crappy attitude. He's just not mod material. He is knowledgeable and puts much time into it, but his attitude and style just leave a sour taste in your mouth.
Yup, he's an asshat....I'm really surprised he's stayed a mod over there with his crappy attitude
I say we do a collective top 4 teams teabag on him :)
I've been hearing conversation of some other team where there is supposedly a recruiting thread. I have not recruited outside of our team although one of our members said he had some friends from pcpitstop that were going to help. It's also only a few boxes from what I'm told. Having outside...
You mean you guys DON'T use led's and the cool lights? :confused:
A little history lesson here....the first year MPC was quite organized and ready to take on the bigger team...we really put it to OCF the first year and a lot of people over there were surprised....the second year we rested on...
You are failing to beat your competition by even 1% LOL
If you can't find your [H]DC shirt, it's prolly because we were using it to clean up some of the poo that got flung. Wash it a few times before wearing it again. We apologize for the smell. :p
We still have some heavy hitters switching over....time for second gear to really pull away from the [H]orde.
You guys are getting really tiny in the rear view mirror.
Sorry for breaking the tables. Yes, some of them had trouble typing in the correct team number-prolly leftovers from last year.
I think the numbers from stanford are accurate-I have no reason to believe they are not. Sorry for any of the confusion.
Now, LET'S GET IT ON!
There is a slight discrepancy in the starting point for OCF. The screenies I posted were of the TOTAL points. This is OK for three of the four teams because all of their points are under the correct teams. Some of the dolts at OCF, team 32, entered the team number incorrectly (in this case...

Hey King, I sent screenies to all the participating teams that had the starting points. The stats system was down at 12pm sharp when I tried to collect them. It came back up around 12:40pm, Pacific Daylight Time. Hope this doesn't create any confusion. Thanks!
Here are the screenies taken shortly after 12pm noon Pacific Daylight Time. The stats were down at 12pm, they were taken as soon as the system came back up. They will serve as the official starting points:
I'm a self proclaimed stats junkie and I approve this message. Me likes!
May I put this url out to the other teams?
Also, seadave77 from overclockers.com will also have a stats page. The url is:

The graph will be reset when the challenge...
pffft, the smack talk has been more like pillow talk compared to the past two years....i wanna see some blood and gore dammit (preferably yours of course)
seadave77 from the OC team has done our stats the past two years. He usually does a knock down job of the stats and graphing, etc. He's going to be doing stats as well this year.
there's no official stance...the short deadlines with the smp client really negates this strategy anyway plus the management overhead for the guys with many many nodes scattered everywhere would make it a major PITA...personally, i wouldn't do anything to jeopardize the science
who knows, it...
contest STARTS on May 5th, 12pm, pacific time hehe
contest ends when we have the winners and losers
we're still in discussion about the amount of points it'll take to win
We don't have a central place for discussion. If we have issues we pm each other and discuss them amongst ourselves. Since this is the third iteration of the contest, we pretty much have the rules nailed down. The only things really needing to be resolved are the number of points needed for...
