Just noticed some Pimpage on the frontpage of the [H]ardOCP site. See if our numbers go up.

According to the Extreme Overclocking site we have 936 active members, one under the Overclockers Australia team. Hopefully the pimpage will up our output a little.

Pimpage usually = coolness :D

What we need is major pimpage. Any of you folks got a great presentation? I wanna see team 33 being pimped at doom9. If enough of us contact him, maybe get some major exposure. Best video encoding site on earth. Huge potential, basically untapped. I've only managed 3 new recruits at Divx.com, though one is seriously impressive in firepower, already passed my silly ass on the team. We gotta think "outside the box", and go for sheer numbers of recruits. Borging rigs, can only get you so far. Need thousands of willing members.
 
not sure but i think many ppl at doom9 are on a team already

i'm working on a powerpoint (being made in OpenOffice, of course :p) presentation. Should be done in 2 weeks.
 
the pimpage brought more foldage......greetings and salutations all...this is theboss.....lol

folding [H]ard on just a 2500+ for the time being...but will be bringing a cluster online in the very near future.
So from Colorado......Fold on people!
 
We realistically need 5K new members to this team, to restore it to it's former glory. There are billions of rigs waiting for a reason, time we give it to em.In every forum you belong to, beg for new members.Yes I feel cheap, but also managed to get an extra 40GHz folding for the team. Hundreds of millions of GHz wait for a reason to fold . We gotta give it to em.

If any of you folks are really good at video production. We need a great presentation for the world. Something that says, wow, why ain't I helpin. For me to carry this out, I'd have to use so much copyrighted material, I'd be jail in under an hour of release. Surely we have a Director wannabe or 2 on the team? If you have the camera, use mom and dad, little sis, grandpa, whomever it takes. A strong message is needed.

i wish we could just purge hardfolding.com of all the skulls :(
 
even better, get all the skulls going again with a few boxen each. that'd put us on top, most likely:D so... how to go about it?

we could put a 'borgp' cookie on the [H] frontpage which asks if you want to be borged, and installs FAH under a random username (or just relic's:p) as a service. it'd have to do a 'detect folding' thing first tho... easy to find on linux, but not as easy on windows... that'd be really cool tho.

wonder if it would work?

that would be sweet, but the skulls probably don't even visit hardfolding.com anyways :rolleyes:

and those who do are probably already folding :(
 
nonono... i meant the [H]OCP frontpage:D

we'd probably get a lot more people that way.
 
I'm sure it fluctuates a little between updates, but we now have 945 Active Members. Up 9 since this morning.

wootage
 
Most likely the skulls don't even remember the team.They have moved on to LIFE problems. Mortgages, braces, and college educations for the kids. I bow to god nightly, thanking him for the strength to have no children. At 43, I should be free and clear of that danger.

I'll gladly pay to keep a dozen computers, over a single child. Got a clingy cat, and 2 silly dogs, and that's enough. If you have an orphan server board or 2, I can give them a good home . If it's spare kids , I'm definitely not interested. Hopefully I'm not the only twisted one here, but I'm delighted with my blessed solitude.

ooooooh...yeah, that'd be cool...but there'd be those assholes who are all like "i deserve to not have it forced on me! if i don't want it, i don't have to see it all the time" etc. etc...
 
Yeah, but it would be cool to have a button like:

Click Here to [H]elp [H]umanity by clicking this one button to join the [H]ardOCP folding team.

That would be a one click install setup to fold for team 33. Many people like things that are easy and simple that require little thought, and don't want to go through the trouble of going to stanford, downloading the client, looking up a team name, installing the software, setting up the options ... ect ect ect.

Must be careful not to violate the EULA, but I think a button like that with an installer would dramatically increase people who would fold.

yeah, so do i...it's a good idea, but 10:1 odds says Kyle will veto it...
 
Kyle has to worry about his business and how he want to present his trademarked name. He may agree to it as long as it is on the [H]ard Folding site, who knows. Someone with clout would have to ask him, and convince that it is a worthwhile project. As I said before, I do not know if it would be a violation of the Stanford EULA though... probably not considering the google toolbar....

WOW :eek: :eek: :eek:

We now have 1001 active members. I think the pimpage definitely helped. Overclockers Australia has 942.

We now have 65 active members since Sunday!!!! Pimpage definitely seemed to help.

On a unrelated note, I just entered top 500 for the team!!! Yippee.

On another unrelated note, I have a supprise brewing and hopefully my production will increase greatly in the next week! :D

But that would require each person to power down a machine or two to transport both ways. Just think of all the lost cycles then. :p

damn...how many colorado ppl we got here now....lol

a friend of mine (el_bob on the [H]orde) hooked up an old dell dimension into his car somehow with all kinds of cool stuff, mp3 playe etc. i think we should all learn from this example and fold on the go when you cant at home :cool:

wireless? at a lan? wired gives better ping times.

still, this makes me wish i was in colorado (especially near you - i could mooch off of your upload rates - me has 160k up)

it has been a while since any FPP though... i'd say we need some more.

The word of the day is: Carputer. :D
 
Well, I would probably go, if it was near Boulder somewhere. I have a few friends up here that like to LAN every now and then too. Might actually be able to get something of decent size going, actually. Maybe use somewhere at CU if we have to. :)

I can't say I game much though. But, sure, why the hell not. :)
