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 Four - placeholder

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. The reining champion, Brigadier General @Den-Fi is close behind at 51.6million and again has out-p

Day Three - Placeholder

With our fearless leader @GOTSpectrumindisposed I'll try to fill in with Today's stat's update ...   Team LTT has produced almost a billion points in the first three days of the event and since today are posting the most points per day of all Folding@Home teams with 423MPPD versus CureCoin's 392MPPD today.   A fierce battle is still raging for the lead but @miker07 remains in 1st place at 39 Miliion points and is slowly increasing their lead over @Gorgon at 38 million. @Den-F

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

Day One - In The Beginning

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. If you see anything not quite right feel free to drop any of us a DM.   any users that have not produc

Verset

Well guys, it is my pleasure to once again welcome people from all social echelons of the LTT forum to the second official Linus Tech Tips FOLDING MONTH!   We welcome folding titans such as @Den-Fi who is the sitting champion, @Gorgon who will be eyeing up the top spot this year with the intention of dethroning the king and @_Rlocke who has promised to give us a good show with more hardware to throw around this year. LMG staff such as @jakkuh_t will hopefully be joining us along with m
