Well it happened to me a week or two ago...I think and just got to thinking how much it hurts!!! I will remember the name Elsie1999 forever!

Now anytime someone pops up on my threats list I let my machines run 24/7...dont tell my girlfriend I let them run the whole weekend! Right now only -bigadv is running but I might turn on my gtx260 24/7 for a few days.

I laugh at this now.....I'm sure it will happen to me in the future.
 
I'll post pics of my response to that later... something to the tune of 25k more PPD...

I've still got 2 names on my threat list, not acceptable, and I just got my rack case for the GPU rig so I'll throw that up here, not to mention I've already got 2 hits on Skynet and a bid on a pair of 5530's :)

In the spirit of the [H]orde, bring it on!

This made me smile. :)

You and me both. Though for different reasons.

Sorry for mowing you, the blades were nice and sharp though. It was a clean cut.

My current F@H armament includes
Computer 1
3.6ghz Core i7 860 /w 8gigs of RAM
1x 260 gtx Core 216 @700 mhz core (shaders scaled the same amount)

Computer 2
3.8ghz Core i7 920 /w 12 gigs of RAM
2x 275 gtx OC'ed

I might add more D if I feel threatened. I have three double slotted expansion x16 slots open. I expect to mow everyone not within the top 20 :D. Good luck everyone.
 
Strange, your not one of 2 names on my threat list, guess you might want to get the D ordered soon!
 
What's a threat list???? :D:D:D:D:D


I feel for you guys. Been there done that.
 
Getting mowed is just one of the time honored traditions we all must endure here in the [H]orde. Don't let it get you down though...it builds character and makes us STRONGER!!! :D

GK, Right now, you're the only one on my threat list (today, at least :) )
 
that was directed at the guy mowing for the top 20, youll need some more D just to catch 85 lol

And Nitro.... you're a bad man...

5 days until my checks clear and I get those 5530's, then I just wait for EVGA to get off it's ass and we'll tag team the next 40 something spots, hows that sound?

Steamrollers are fun, but what's better than 2 of them on NOS charging thru the ranks?

what? it's good to have high goals. unfortunately i need a new car before i add more D
 
new car, nah

More D , hell ya!

Get enough D and you can have a self powered Hot Air Balloon, and do you know how many chicks you could get with a hot air balloon? It's not like everyone's got one

"I can show you the world... "
 
When I replace these 2x 5870s with GTX480's the pain begins.
 
Ah they do say you'll always remember your first. :D

And nitro, that's just nasty. :eek: wowsers

Eh at least we all share one common goal of keeping EVGA in #2 :p
and fighting the nasties too of course :)

Fine, you asked for it, I'll bring it!!!

HOT TAMALES! I GOT YER HOT TAMALES RIGHT HERE! :D

Unfortunately, that's all Uncle Sam'll let me bring right now... But at least this top 200 folder knows his place... (Somebody pass me a beer?) A good week for me these days is not getting passed more than I get mowed, and at 8K ppd, that's getting harder and harder.

i wouldnt buy anything till the 6core chips come out that will bump every other chip down a notch in price. the 970 extreme is already down to $800 at the micro
 
*watches on as Elsie1999 mowes her over as well*

Ah well, you get used to the feeling of mower blades in your back after a while :p
 
It's been a while since I got mowed. Only been mowed once in the last 6 months by Axdrenalin. Musky (16 years) & Kanakis (2 years) are on my threatlist, but I obviously have a little time to figure out a solution to that.

I've got parts ready, but just haven't had the time to build. I still need a MoBo & RAM for the spare i7. They have been ready for a while, but with the hours I've bee keeping, it just isn't going to happen.

After I write the sizable check to Uncle Sam, then I will be free to add. I am looking at getting the spare i7 up and running, but am also contemplating going Dual Xeon with the eVGA Board. My workstation (sig rig) is nearly 2 years old and is due for a refresh. I will not likely refresh the GPUs as there isn't anything out there that has pushed it yet. I can spend the money on MoBo & CPUs.
 
It's been a while since I haven't been mowed. :( :D

Hopefully I can fix that this year if things turn around financially.
 
With my rig issues, Musky and Elsie1999 are gaining quite rapidly. It was all offline for 2 days and now I am without the GTS 250. Hopefully the GTX 295 will come back at 100% in a week or two as well!
 
I haven't checked my mirrors for a while but Musky and a bunch of people popped up in my threat list. Now that I am just about back up to full power (still breaking in the AS5 on my H50 cooler) I might be able to shake a few off my list.
 
Ugh,
I just had to shut of my card folding rig because I had to pull a memory stick for RMA. Should I not even bother checking my stats for the next few days? That way if I were mowed down again I would know! :p
 
Ya, you'll get that, but keep checking, you'll need the names as targets lol

This.....

There are a few people that mowed me that I'm gunning for above me (the 18 people that are, and no tiger isn't one of them)

Evil on the other hand has painted a target on me. We tend to go back and forth every year or so.... it's my turn :eek:
 
If I have ever mowed anyone down, I guess I'm sorry....

Ha, as of right now I highly doubt I have mowed anyone here down.....but if the time comes......................................................................

I'll never aplogize for mowing anybody and if I'm mowed I'll consider the blade marks and face full of grass as a badge of honor. :D

Okay, what you building? :p
 
Good luck with the new build. Any points added to the [H]orde, is good news in my book. :)
 
I forsee a few more 100k guys about 2 weeks after SR-2

I'm going to get my lawn chair and a bag of chips. This is going to be good.

Hey now, I don't want a target on my back! I was just making up for when you guys plowed over *me* the time before! :D I still have to try and catch up to Sunin one day...and that looks like it'll be a long time from now.

Hmmm....No Hard feelings with me using Origami to mow you over... right? :D

I may have to get one of those SR-2's to keep YOU at bay and go after Ax :D :D

If you use Origami to mow over me, then I won't have any hard feelings either. I sold that BadAxe2 MB to him back when he first built that setup. :cool: You *do* have a little bit of catching up to do though, so get busy my friend! :D

EDIT: I love that motivational poster Heretic. Wasn't that Kendrak's origianl creation?
