Show off! 😛 I better watch my back for you... with a telescope! Then I might see you in the distance 😀 Can't wait for a good battle for a spot, now where was that pompous *ss that was gonna overtake me and wants to remove me from the top 40...

I'm hanging out about 145 days behind you about a week from breaking into the top 100. Changed my sig until I get a bit closer.
 
I see you.... and over 145 days, I'm in the low thirties, so it won't matter if you overtake me or not! BTW, last night I added a machine, so bring it on! 😀

Bwahahahaha! Only 98 days as of 9:08 CST this morining, will probably chenge at noon but for now I am less than 100 days behind you.

I guess I need to start taunting mc68k now, I'm 4178 days behind him. See you in 2016 mc68k, watch your back (but you'll need a good high powered telescope 😀)
 
Ladies & Gentlemen,

I'm glad to report that the storm has gone down, the (s)Tinker storm is over and production is getting back to normal! WHOEHOEEEEE!
 
2 weeks of starting over from scratch, I've made into the top 25 percentile of all folders. At my present rate, I should crack the top 10 within another month.

Congratulations!

I'm sorry it looks like I am due to pass you in the next day or two (a necessary evil in my quest for Dreadnought) but thankfully it looks like I probably won't push you down since you will overtake proteus_G5 soon.

135 days and counting, Dreadnought. Now that I've broken the top 100 you don't need to flip screens to watch me coming.
 
It's about time you are catching up. You have a mega output and still it takes you another 130 days... I still have the aftereffects from the Tinkerstorm, so my production takes a couple of days before it's back to it's normal output. So my prediction for the end of this day will be: it will take you longer then 130 days! ( I know, I have two big ones that will be finished today!) 😀

Hey, I've been hit by the Tinkers too, although it has been letting up.

It'll be less than 130 days. By the end of April I'll have brought an additional P4 3.0 GHz machine online, still not sure if I'll use it as a dual or just disable HT either way it'll be a good boost.

As of the 9:00 update I'm only 118 behind and tomorrow looks promising for me. I'm happy that I have now made my first goal of making the top 100. Now comes the icing.
 
I wasn't sure about my status until recently. With an apostrophe in my user name I had to contact Stanford and ask to get upgraded.
I joined folding in April of 2004 and have left my lowly G3-400 running 24/7 ever since. I've been bombarded with so many Tinkers I can't count, but right now I'm sitting at #336 and I'm crunching another Tinker that has 11 days left to finish.

Folding runs, I ignore it, and it runs more. I look maybe once or twice a month to see where I'm at and I like it 😀

6 months ago I put a Sonnet G4-500 CPU in this box and I really like it. I've still only got 640 mb of RAM but it does what I need it to. 😉
 
Yes! finaly on top of sparkleytone again! Thankyou lord jesus, I can't believe it, you must have shut down a computer, cause it has been hard eating your dust for so long. I know it won't last, but I will sleep good tonight my worthy adversary! 😛

edit: I knew it wouldn't last long, it was sweet while it did though. 🙁

🙂 You had a nice run while I was down. I wish I had caught that machine earlier.

I guess I can't complain tho...right now I have p247, p638, p1408, and p1411 all on deck for the next few days. Thats about a grand right there 🙂 I need some more machines.
 
Owh no! I lost a position, I'm back at the #39 spot. Could it be... Has Atszyman found a couple folders to get me out of the top 40... I'm getting scared! Still another 221 days before you finally have overtaken me Atszyman! BRING IT ON! 😛
 
Looks like BlackAdder is making a run for it.

Should overtake RowerCPU in 30 days and about 2 1/2 months against the leaderboard Khaldei.

You're safe for now, my production has leveled off and I don't appear to be a threat to you any more. I had evidently gotten off of a good couple of days there and was getting good output. Now I seem to be shaking off the tinkers. Still getting them on my PowerBook and my main Work PC.
