Gotta say, hitting 800th out of 8144 ain't too shabby considering the plethora of hardware I'm up against.  Granted, with two days left (right?) I prolly won't make it past 700th.  

 

Still a good run in my mind.

broke the top 200 today. It's my first time folding since 2015 when I was folding with a i5-3570k and a GTX 770. took about 700 WU to get to my goal of 1 mil points. I got almost 2 mil points today alone. I don't think ill make it to the top 150 but I can dream

It's crazy competitive at that level. Be lucky not to lose spots, let alone pull ahead. Gotta be a time when you hit your hardware peak.

The top 100 gets exponentially harder to gain a position...

I see folding like body building... You can only go so far all natural before having to hit the roids...  i.e. before using the cloud VMs with Tesla GPUs

I am bedridden... I see it more like... not that... at all. The example made me tired.

Yup... been in the top 50 for more than a week with nothing special, but too many people pulling out the big guns with the cloud hardware now... will be happy if I'm not booted off the top 100

Appreciated... I was only being silly though, not meaning to be a jerk or make you uncofomfortable. Hey, sat upright for the first time in months yesterday... woot!

Could you elaborate please?

 

Do you add these values in the "extra slot options (expert only)"?

Do you fill out the first string in "name" and the second in "value"?

 

What does this do exactly?

All good, I didn't take any offence from your comments

I thought about doing the same when I saw the posts on how to do it however will just keep to my 4 folding rigs in my garage.  Already spending too much time managing them atm...  Luckily for me I am forced to work from home so am monitoring them constantly (when I am not asleep).

Yes "extra slot options (expert only)"

name - client-type    

value - advanced

 

Lets you get advanced WU that are late stage beta

Well...the big line of storms was kind enough to leave me without power since 3AM. Hopefully the work computer is still on for the few points it is worth. Maybe I wont drop too many spots.

I'm one of 'em.   Still gives me approximately 30,000 PPD

Final credit estimate, 1433.00 points - that's more than I was expecting from an Intel(R) Pentium(R) 3805U @ 1.90GHz.

I tried an old Core2Duo earlier but it seemed a huge waste of electricity for how pathetic it was doing.

So annoying I still have an i3 2120 and Pentium G3258 sat doing nothing, as I don't have any motherboards to put them in.

I'm taking my 2009-ish Dell Latitude with a Celeron out of the loop today.  Usually takes 14-20 hours for one WU.  Simply not worth the effort.  However, haven't had any hiccups with it at all this whole time.
