From Paul: TeamXFAU, OCAU's leading subteam in the Folding@Home project, is about to hit the 2 million point mark, and to mark the occasion, we've decided to organise a race for all OCAU folders, old or new!!!
It is a time trial race. It will be run over 4 weeks, and whoever can increase their average PPD production the most over this time wins!!! Simple as that, no handicaps, no divisions, nothing - it's all against all!!!!
As prizes, TeamXFAU members will be folding under the winners' username for two weeks. The prize breakdown has yet to be confirmed, but will probably look like this:
1st prize: 24 x P4's (all 3.6 ghz), donated by EH_Holden_1964 on behalf of Sunraysia Institute of TAFE
2nd prize: 4 x P4's (2x 2.8 ghz, 2x 3.0 ghz), donated by me
3rd prize: 1 x A64 4400+, 1 x P4 3ghz, donated by karsa
4th prize: 2 x P4's (2x 2.8 ghz), donated by Pyro
5th prize: 1 x A64 3000+ @ 2.5ghz, 1 x XP-M 2800+, donated by CaeSiuM-X
6th prize: 1 x P4 3 ghz, donated by kitwalker
7th prize: 1x Athlon 64 3500+ w/RAM OC'ed, 1x 2.8Ghz Pentium 4, Donated by FearTec
There's some great prizes there, they are good for current folders, providing a boost in production (good for those of you competing in other races as well), or for inactive folders, as a kickstart to get folding again, or for new folders, as a nice addition to your folding beginnings. If you would like to enter, please enter your folding name in this thread.
Update: I should clarify, the prizes are that those systems will fold under your name for two weeks, boosting your overall Folding score. IE, you don't actually win 4x P4 CPUs to take home. :)
