Sorry, I have to call it quits.

hey guys,
Our electricity prices have been going through the roof down here and it's just costing too much to keep folding.

Sorry to let the team down.

Sorry to hear that. Thanks for your contributions. If things change in the future we'll be here.
and remember, you are always welcome here at the forums folding or not.

Thanks for all your contributions Johnno!

I know what you are saying. It has cooled off enough here that the decreased AC usage has matched with the folding.

I myself am shutting of my PS3 folding to compensate with the increased costs. My GPU outputs more WU's so my army of hamsters will continue to power my computer until further notice.

PS3's are only 1000 PPD as I understand it. Not worth the cost if you have a better folder.

come back to folding soon we all need you

Winter arriving now, so time to spin up the hex core box with a GTX470 room heater. Now if I could just get back into the computer room.

LOL! just use it as an excuse to warm up the snow shovel.

Thanks for all you have contributed Johnno.

He's still going at a reduced rate.

Solution: Turn off the heating, turn up the folding.

I doubt he uses much heating this time of the year in Australia.

Yea. Right now they are starting to go into summer months so the AC is probably costing him due to increased heat. I don't fold anymore for the same reason as it's always an ongoing battle to keep rooms cool even through the winter.
