Spread the Fox by Folding with Flare!

The coolest Ff folder competition

And my vote goes to:

Lucutious

Because he has 90 WU, and no (=zero) points.

Whats up with that?

weird

This is actually quite weird. I'm going to ask the Folding@Home staff what could be wrong.

BTW, any idea of who it is (emailaddress or so)?

Eh no

He/She is one of the last ones on the list, and I guess has been there for a while. Also not very active. But I just wanted to vote for the coolest folder ever, and this one seemed a good candidate. We should however add the WU to our total, and our points.

Solved

Folks at folding community have explained this. It seems that his PC was downloading WUs, calculating them with junk data really fast, and returning them again. He'll then not receive any points, causing situations like this. He had 0.1 point though.

Ahh overclocker

He probably just overclocked w/o setting proper spread-spectrum and w/o ECC ram.

IF YOU OVERCLOCK AND RUN FAH USE ECC RAM!!! Don't want to spend $75 extra on your RAM? Put that money into a new processor and cheaper coolant system.

What???

What are you talking about? you should OC with non-ecc RAM, provided that you know your machine. If anything, ECC RAM is slower, and can only be used on specific platforms. It makes no sense to OC an ECC machine, unless you're talking about a 940 based FX.
This is true for any app, FAH included.

He might actually be yes. I o

He might actually be yes. I only overclock my graphics card (by 25%).
