Day Eleven - More To Come

Well guys, it looks like the team is clawing back some lost production as we are seeing a slight bump today, that half billion day is still elusive to us though, but it will happen.   In first place we see @Gorgon hanging on by the skin of his teeth with 164.66 million points, he looks like the king is poised to strike and take his lead over the next day or so, it will be interesting to see if he has anything to respond with or if he will need to concede to @Den-Fi who has ramped up pr

Day Ten - Production Slumps

Well guys, we have hit the double digits, and it seems the pressure is starting to hit our participants. The download bug is back and we can see some users folding under the heat.   In first place we see @Gorgon holding on with 148.83 million points, many have asked hows hes managed to stay up with the king breathing down his neck, the answer is sandbagging unforeseen circumstances on the part of @Den-Fi who is in second with 146.98 million points, Its hard to gauge if he really is str

Day Nine - Placeholder

Nine days into the competition and things are starting to settle in.   The Download bug is still hitting Team members though it seems to be better and folks are bemoaning certain WUs that won't let their big iron shine.   Still in the lead by the narrowest of margins is @Gorgon at 132.5 million with @Den-Fihot on his heels at 132.3 million and gaining. But wait, could there be a dark horse galloping on the horizon? 3rd place @miker07 at 115.8 million has @Yggdrasil128 at 86.8

Day Eight - Production Soars For Week Two

Well guys, here we are, the first day of the second week and my oh my have we been busy bees, that 500m day is still elusive but we are creepy ever closer.   In first place we have @Gorgon with a massive 116.56 million points, he really has expanded his fleet since last folding month and finds himself in first, but that lead is slipping away as @Den-Fi is hot on his tail with 115.66 million, and seeing as the advancing royalists are outpacing the the rebel leader it's only a matter of

Day Six - It's A Trap

Well guys,    This will have to be a quick one, if I have time I may come back and edit this later on, I'm not sure yet.   @Gorgon is still holding onto first place, @Den-Fi the king has rallied the troops and is marking on number one, @miker07 Seems to be enjoying himself sitting in third, @catawalks is in a dangerous position with a number of people below him out producing him, @_Rlocke seems to have found the wind and has given the order to make full sail, @Yggdrasil128 ha

Day Five - firing On All Cylinders

Well, I'm back guys, you just can't keep me away for long can you.   ***DISCLAIMER***   Due to an unusual error in Stanfords database we have had to make a correction to one users stats, @leadeater will be awarded 786,241 points, this number was worked out by analysing his previous production data along with carefully reviewing log file submitted to us. We are confident that this value should be close enough, with 100k likely to be the maximum error. as the final ranks are wo

Day 4 in the trenches.   Were still stuck in the trenches of the Western Front up to our arses in mud and it is raining slow WUs on the troops. Despite this bad weather Major General @miker07 is still our leader at 54.2Milion points but Brigidier General @Gorgonhasn't given up yet and may have brought up reinforcements for his divisions and is hot on his tail at 53.6 Million in 2nd place.

Day Two - So Early, So Impressive

In these early days we start to see the initial ranks coming out, much can, and will change over the next 33 days, but for now we can get a small idea of generally where many of us will find ourselves, will we be comfortably finding ourselves fighting for a respectable top 100, maybe even top 10, or are we in for the misery of finding ourselves fighting to stay afloat in the middle. These numbers are interesting if nothing else and may be an indicator of what is to come, but one is is sure, that

Well guys, we had a hick up for the day one stats and blog, posting in the wrong blog... Total error on my part.   We go through a rigorous validation procedure, most of it is automated, but the final validation is done by hand, which means there is a chance for human error. In this case one value was missed in the sheet of 1754 records, we record both point and WU data too.

Kailh Box Jade - The Best Clicky Switch to Ever Exist

The Kailh Box Jade is one of the most famous clicky switches in the mechanical keyboard scene, boasting a thick click bar, MX stem with a box, and moderate afforadability at around $0.34 at any major mechanical keyboard switch retailer. I have owned and use Kailh Box Jades for a month on my main keyboard and have experienced great joy from using these particular switches, they have a consistent click and actuation, and the sound of them is crisp and full, compared to that of the Cherry Blue

Cisco DNA - CLI Templating

If you've ever used Cisco Prime Infrastructure's CLI Templating, you'll find that Cisco DNA's (Digital Network Architecture) CLI templating is an enhanced version found within Cisco Prime. Of course, there are many other features within DNA but this is just a quick example while I have 15 minutes of free time to demonstrate CLI templating and how it can be used to effectively deploy unified templates to a Cisco infrastructure instead of using other methods such as: Python + CLI scraping, Ansible

Tealios V2 - The Smoothest Switch Around

The Tealios V2 are a boutique linear switch offered by ZealPC which features a 67g spring, Gateron-made housing, and a smooth, linear stem in Tiffany & Co. blue, no I'm not joking, the pantone for the stem is inspired by Tiffany & Co, and it's adorable. It sets itself apart from color from Zeal's popular purple Zealios, Hermes orange Healios, and pink Sakurios and Rosélios switches.     I bought a 68 pack of Tealios V2 from KBDfans, for $1 a switch, which is expensiv

Graviton Lance in 2019 - Bonus Weekend Post

Recently got the catalyst for Graviton Lance, been essentially maining it in PvE and PvP as a result.   Today, I'd like to talk a bit about this weapon. In the event of somebody not knowing Graviton Lance, I'll start by doing a quick run-down: Graviton Lance is an exotic Void pulse rifle. It fires a two-round burst, and features the Black Hole perk(second round does more damage, has no range falloff, and has more recoil), and the Cosmology trait: kills with

NovelKeys Creams - Contender For Best Stock Switch

The NovelKeys Creams are a linear switch made by NovelKeys in partnership with Kailh. This switch is the first of its for Kailh as it features a traditional MX stem and MX-style latching for the housing, and I'd say Kailh have done fairy well. These switches are made using an al-POM housing - that's DuPont POM Plastics - and also for the stem. POM has been used in this switch as it is often referred to as self-lubricating, which due to the nature of lubing, means that it will naturally be s

We're Back With Another Destiny 2 PvP Build

Let's talk about Liar's Handshake some more. This is easily one of my favorite exotics to run in PvP. It pairs excellently with top tree Arcstrider, Way of The Warrior.   Before I get into all of that however, let's talk about Swashbuckler. Fallout Plays did a very good job of explaining it in his video along with some damage numbers, but I'll give you a basic rundown if you don't want to watch it. Swashbuckler is a damage increasing perk like Rampage. Unlike Rampage however,

Zealios V2 - How a Tactile Switch Should Be

The Zealios V2 are a well-regarded switch made by ZealPC in partnership with Gateron, which has come to rival the famous Holy Panda switches. This particular Zealio in my hands is a 62g weighted one, which is the lightest out of the four Zealios weights, those being 62g, 65g, 67g, and a hefty 78g version. These Zealio switches feature a purple stem which with each weight, has a darker colored stem with the heavier weights sporting the deeper purples.     I bought my Zea

Discussing Myths: GeForce RTX. The Whole Thing

On this entry, GeForce RTX! And not just one thing but the whole thing. Or at least as much as possibly can remember. As with the Discussing Myth series, it's more about taking assertions or claims that people have said and poking at it, presenting an argument against the assertion or claim.   RTX is only about ray tracing Perhaps the "RT" in "RTX" makes it confusing, but RTX is a technology feature set that encompasses what Turing can do. In addition to hardware accelerated ray t
