Thanks, I'm in.

[werty316]

Nice stuff.

On another note, I'm still waiting for my sister to ship out the GTX 460 from the last contest so I can get it going. She said she'll do it this weekend so my fingers are crossed.

[swmeek]

I'm in!

[Blacksmith1]

I guess I'm in also since I'm folding anyway..kinda hope i don't win it tho' cause then I'd feel like I had to go get it up and running. :-D

What does 'active' mean? Is there a minimum points or WU?

You just have to actively be folding for the month of november to be in and have at least 5 posts on the forums during november as well.

[Pablo 54]

IN! Weeeee!!!!

Good luck, everyone.

[oasis789]

in that case, count me in to fold!

[swmeek]

Welcome to the team!
We hope you stick around for awhile!

[MtDew]

I'm in. I've finally got two machines back folding today, since I am finally back home from my 3 week training course.

[sifter]

Been meaning to start folding again, this should help with the encouragement.

[ET3D]

I was happy to read that there's no need to get to a particular place, but then I noticed the "US shipping address" part. Actually I could have this shipped to a US address, but I figure it's not worth the hassle, especially since I don't really need a new MB right now.

[Scott]

Well if you would want to pay shipping and customs you could win. Problem is I buy the boards here in the USA and can not afford to send them out of the country.

[onzfeat]

im just start folding about 6h, but my name not existed on teampage 41608. im new in forum also. i want that mobo :grin:

[Blacksmith1]

once you compleate a work unit, and return it to Stanford, it will update. just make sure that you have the right team #, or it will show up somewhere else.

[PP Mguire]

Forgot to say im in. Third cold front hit, lets hope it keeps them temps down. Dont need an X58 board but hey might push me to finally upgrade a little.

[Zenn]

I'm in, I think. I have to clean out of my rig first though as it really needs it.

[Nasdaqkeith]

That Board Sounds Good To Me ....I'm Pretty Happy With My 1st Million Point Month Also...Keith:keepfolding:

[Nasdaqkeith]

How Do I Become A Folding Senior Member ?

[swmeek]

Ask the big bosses for a custom title!

[Blacksmith1]

post more often.... the junior member refers to your post count.:grin:

[oasis789]

nothing like folding to heat up a room :)

[borschtBomber[SS]]

Nice prize for sure Scott. :)

[Cirozorro]

Alright! I just started folding today, and would love to win a motherboard. Thanks for the contest, this is the first of my 5 post.

[PP Mguire]

Actualy thats your 3rd since you joined in november ;)

[Blacksmith1]

no it was his first. his post count was one when i read it the first time.:grin::keepfolding:

[PP Mguire]

Im to lazy to look at dates so ill take your word for it.

[ET3D]

Well if you would want to pay shipping and customs you could win. Problem is I buy the boards here in the USA and can not afford to send them out of the country.
That's fair enough. I won't take advantage of it this time, but it's worth knowing that if there's a prize I really want I can get it for the price of shipping and customers. Might be worth it for some prizes.

[slugbug]

Not sure what I'd do with it if I won. Build another folding rig I guess:)

[Blacksmith1]

just remember that any new rigs you build will not fuction properly unless you put my info in your config..;-)
:keepfolding:

[wand3r3r]

I'd like to join too. I'll get the folding@home clients running, I've just had a fresh OS install.

[dukeman]

count me in

:keepfolding:

Damn, I guess I'll have to rewrite my folding guide then :)

[peti1212]

Damn, I guess I'll have to rewrite my folding guide then :)

haha, that's funny!

[oasis789]

Real chilly today... at least my rig is warm and toasty!

[Nasdaqkeith]

Starting To Get Cold At Night In CT. My Outdoor Rads Are Going To Be Getting Cold ....Good For Folding !:keepfolding:Ive Been Getting Bigadv Work every day now it seems?:grin:

[sifter]

Kinda obvious, but you can count me out for this contest. Card died at the beginning of the month and now Frys is taking 2 weeks before I get the 460 that I ordered last week. The 9500 is too much of a waste of energy running 24/7 for folding. Best of luck to everyone else.

[oasis789]

coming to the end of nov... where's yall at in the race?

pinq

[Blacksmith1]

It's not a race this time.....

[PP Mguire]

Seems alot of us ran into some probs. Electric bill came in and naturally the owner of the house thought it was me because of folding *rolleyes* what an idiot. *le sigh*

[Scott]

Last Day. Some on the Folding Team have not made the 5 post requirements so far this month on the forums.


Winner will be picked and announced tonight. While my GTX480 is cooling off so I can move it to another slot to add my GTX580 to my Folding rig.

[Blacksmith1]

nice! that rig will keep you warm this winter. :)

[swmeek]

Good luck to the winner!

[peti1212]

Good luck to the winner! Exciting times! :)

[slugbug]

One person will have a nice reason to upgrade.

[oasis789]

Best of luck to all and congrats to the winner!

[peti1212]

so was the winner announced or contacted!?

[werty316]

The winner was announced (http://www.bjorn3d.com/forum/showthread.php/35190-And-Novembers-Folding-Contest-Winner-is) and I assume they were contacted.

[Scott]

Yes in a seperate thread? Where have you been? Pablo won.

[gstillman-Stephanie]

Count me in also. Need to get a home machine running again. Lost one system due to another developer needing a quad core box.

[Blacksmith1]

Is this a time machine thing or something like the mailbox where you post from 2010 and we answer from a year later?
