Award Ceremony - Factual Correction

Well guys,    It seems that due to an error on my part with the datasheet we have managed to omit all who hit the minimum requirements who had less than 1 million points. So, here are the list of the guys who hit the requirements but were omitted due to a simple error in the IF statement. In order to make sure that you guys haven't missed out on any giveaways we are planning to use any unclaimed prizes to be raffled to you guys. I hope this makes things right, as always we will endeavo

Day Thirty - The dirty thirty

With only five days left in the Competition things are heating up and there's some jockeying going on as Folders vie for coveted positions in the top 10 and top 25 for bragging rights and others put in a final push attempting to break into the Top 100 for more chances at the the loot being offered this year.   At 100th with 32 Million points we have @Self_Ignition but will they live up to their handle and burn up under the strain? @Xoggy is close behind but @Szah @shp and @StaffCorpo

Day Twenty-eight - The Battle Rages On

Although the number one position seems to be set, the battle for top 10 and top 100 is raging on.   I just want to give my apologises for the lack-luster updates this year, I'm sure many of the veterans can agree with me that last years were of much higher quality. I really do appreciate you all sticking with us on this and pushing so hard during the event, and I hope to see you all continuing to fold further after the event so we can show the world just what team LTT can do.

Day Twenty-seven - Timeshifting

Well guys, the update is here, please be advised that this is 25 hours due to the changing of clocks from BST to GMT here in Britain. All further updates will be 24 hourly again.    It's seeming like I'm coming down with a cold so the next few days will be fun... not.

Day Twenty-four - The Heat Is On

Well guys,   The heat is on in the race for the top few spots, the truth is there are skirmishes popping up all throughout the leader-board, the top 30 is a particularly dangerous place to be, with the battle for the number one spot the way it is, we have to ask, are they in breach of the Geneva convection?   This is going to be a quick one tonight as I have rater spicy curry and I think I'm going to cry shortly.    top 10 - 30.30%, top 50 - 55.40%, top 100 - 70.01%

Day Twenty-Three - Clash Of The Titans

Well Ladles and Gentlespoons,    The fight for the top spot has gone from standard folding to full on nuclear warfare, With the king bringing in over 36 million points, but @Yggdrasil128 is blowing him outta the water with just over 41 million points, if he was a team of his own he would be 11th in the world. This is very much a real clash of the titans, but who can pull out all the stops and play that organ at full power... only time will tell.    @SynapseBreak is looking to

Well it really has to be said, the guys at the top are pulling off the gloves and are going at it bare-knuckle.   I'm not going to be going through stats and the like as you can see them for yourselves and the truth is I am very much thoroughly drained from yet another night at the hospital, it's good to be home though.

Day Twenty-one - Production Boost

Evening everyone. With the event still going strong we have just over 2 weeks left in the event and an estimate of 2.2 weeks to take the 8th spot on the overall list. But I personally think with a little elbow grease we can get it done before then so all steam ahead. But into the inter team battling:   in now first with a commanding amount of PPD (almost 30 million) is our king @Den-Fi with 361.2 million points. Having taken 2nd place a couple of days ago we now have @Yggdrasil128 with

Well guys, we have seen some mixing up of the top 20 or so over the last few days, I may have been knocked down a couple of spots but that's great. I love the fact you guys have thrown yourselves at this and we are really making a splash. But, please, remember that Folding needs compute power all year round, so even if you are only hitting it up in the winter months, keep on folding after the event guys, we could all be making a difference.    I'm not going to be talking about the top
