Definitely put me down for this, expect Dan’s confirmation to follow once he sorts his PayPal out:

Gaming name: Blue Lightning
Real name: *noted*

Red told me about this today so here I am; dust freshly blown off an account I should never have let go inactive feeling immensely nostalgic towards the single best community I’ve ever come across.  I am so glad you guys are still going strong.

Consider me/us there vacancies willing :thumbsup2:

Nice one! Keep up the good work.

“That’s red thunder isn’t it?”

Well, it’s a joint effort between us, he convinced me to start again and at the moment we have a;

1) Pentium 4 powering two threads running at 3.2Ghz with two gigs of ram running near enough 24/7.
2) The computer I’m on now (Sig)
3) A Dell dimension 8200 @ 2ghz with 512mb ram (rarely left on but ill be changing that )
4) His beast of a PC.

When we get back to school I’m sure Dan will try and rope some more in…  Might even try and get him to borg his uncle again, If I remember correctly he had a lot of crunching power to offer.

I missed the beginner quest (face palms) thats half a mil i just lost... -sulks-

Ohh nice one mate, even opend up on the right page for me

BlueLightning …  Were an imaginative bunch aren’t we?

Was about to completely delete the post as I’ve just seen it for myself    Shame you beat me to it, no worries then, that parts irrelevant.  However the point about the server name remains.

Only being part of Alpha I feel a little out of line pointing this out but if the “public” server is still TCS, what place does the /rank plug-in enabled on the public server play in TCS?  Surely an award system based on how many frags you manage to score is an incentive to bend or push the rules or even totally disregard them for players new to TCS?

I was under the impression that the big stonking label of public in the servers name and the absence of TCS/Z meant exactly what was being implied.  Not trying to drop anyone in it but the other day when I reiterated someone’s point about the rank system I was met with the reply “This isn’t a TCS server though is it.” So this thread was definitely needed, perhaps to make the point stronger the addition of TCZ to publics name might be helpful.

Just my two pennies worth, no offence intended.

(Edited because as of today Homer isnt the public is it.. Doh)

Hi guys just thought i should drop you a message to let you know ive decided to stop my seti attempts and started F@H again.  Ill be setting it up on a couple machines and hopefully borg some friends/family.

Merry Christmas/ Seasons Greetings.

Hmm yeh were NOWHERE near full swing yet...  might take a week or two to co-ordinate properly...

After a few abusive comments and challenges from Dan ( your beloved Red ) he has finally agreed to set up F@h on 3 machines in his household and whack a few spare parts laying about to give another 4cpus to the effort.. But he hasn’t stopped there. He’s borging another 3 pcs from some close friends of his... and a laptop each from two uncles. Sounds brilliant doesn’t it, 9 cpus to the effort...  

But you haven’t heard the best part yet.  His uncle is the previous owner of a computer business and has some extremely heavy duty machines in his household.. Were talking monster servers with duel 4ghz processors… and were not talking just one, he has a dozen of the things.  So that’s another monstrous addition to Dead men Folding.  So add that to the 5.5Ghz wich I will be leaving on 24/7 wich pull in 1,250 + a week and the new combined effort user named RedNBlue will be playing with the big boys in no time. 7,000+ a week? **massive stab in the dark either far less or alot more**  :dribble:

I think we all need to thank Dan massively for this extreme amount of enthusiasm. :blink:

p.s. Going around school and bothering the heck out of m8s.. seeing if we can borge em, were really going at this full flare.
(NB: Blue_Lightning will no longer be my active username as my points will also be a part of this immense effort)

Hyper Threading,  

It works for Seti... it works for prime95… Why isn’t there the ability to run double crunchers for F@H??? I’m sure I’m losing valuable time by not using Intel’s brain child to its full capacity?

:blink: Eh? Ok.... Neways, about this Alias checker?
