    Enjoyed my first LTT F@H event! I actually did better than I thought I would at 76th, going to shoot for top 50 next event!
     
    Thanks to all those who make this event happen! Pretty cool that a bunch of you dedicate a ton of your free time into this.

    "In first place we have @Den-Fi, taking his throne for the second time. ALL HAIL THE KING! Sitting in what can only be called a very comfortable seat with 2,342,017,007 points he never really looked like loosing. Our previous best point total for any event was 886,386,763 points set during the last folding month. The most interesting point to make of his astounding victory is the fact that ran all of his hardware himself and didn't sport a single mercenary during the event. "
     
    Want to shout out to the top guys for a few different reasons, each of them important and truly awesome.
     
    Can we all give Den-fi a huge F'n round of applause, I mean the dude folds on hardware.  I dont know if he has to pay all of the electric himself, but man just owning, building, maintaining that hardware yourself is an awesome contribution (read: addiction) and I really honestly cant fathom having that much PC hardware and finding a place for it, electric, maintenance, etc.  To do this without mercenaries is truly insane.  It really merits the highest of recognition.
     
    All that said.  To those of you who use mercenaries.  Good on you folks.  I cheered on @Macaw2000 when he won the Covid month, and continue to appreciate those contributions.  Does he use mercenaries?  Yes he does.  Do the resources he uses and farms out contribute in a MASSIVE way to protein folding for good medical purposes.  Hell yes.  The people on here that farm it out, while they may get occasional sh*t in good humor, have contributed a ton of resources in some way, shape, or form and are hugely appreciated.  And they have contributed a lot more than myself and so many others.
     
    Humbled by all of you with your massive point totals.  Good on all of you!

    Everyone and their dog has already thanked you @GOTSpectrum and the whole team behind this event (@leadeater  @marknd59  @cbigfoot @ssmmdd @j1philli and anyone else I might have forgotten), but I thank you again!

    I am here with only one question regarding folding badge thresholds change.
     
    For those that have achieved a certain rank but will not be hitting the new thresholds for the same rank before January 1, 2021 will they be downgraded to lower badge or will the badge achieved persist?
     
    EDIT: I forgot to thank everyone who donated prices and of course everyone who folded (and keeps folding).
    EDITEDIT: Oh, I won the second award, that's a first one. Thank you for providing that one to the pool @RollinLower!

    Out of curiosity, why the disqualification if you sign up under two ident----ohhhhhhh, took me way too long.  Double your chances of getting a prize.  Got it!  Carry on.  I'm so focused on getting the most points that I forget doing so doesn't actually get you a prize

    @miker07 Congrats bud. You squeaked by a little under 2 million points ahead of me. I tried to get the kids to fold for me using the RX5700xts I gave them for their gaming rigs but no joy. This will be brought up next time they whine their computers are too slow.
     
    @Den-Fi Awesome finish!
