Default Re: Folding@Home on the PS3- Join Team AP

Any units folded on that first name will stay on that name- anything done after the name change will appear under your Jay290783 name. The folding on the PS3 itself will still have your total tally.

What? So it will reset back to 1 on the site? Bloody typical
Where was the info about the name thing when I needed it?
I just presumed it would automatically show up as Jay290783 as that was what I registered for my Playstation Network name

It may show as one on the tally under your name but you know the ones marked under the name PS3 are yours too. As I also mentioned, the total in the program itself will reflect all the folding you have done. Besides, the main thing is the greater good the folding can do. Don't stress the stats.

You should know by now what assuming does, btw.

Well I asked the question on the official folding forums and I got an answer practically the same you gave.
Nowt can be done about it, that was the basic gist of it.
Ah well, at least we're making a difference...I guess

Cool Re: Folding@Home on the PS3- Join Team AP

Just thought I'd post a quick reply.
I've just checked, and our Team now sits at 4118 out of 69100 teams
On a more personal note, my current Overall Rank is apparently 241145 out of 740377...whatever that means
Although, can't be bad, to say I only started folding on Monday (just gone) p
Also, I'm er 6th in our teams table Go Me! Go Me!
Still a little bit to go before I catch 5th place (Jim). Be months before I catch 2nd place (MCW) and years before I catch 1st place (Lyn)

Thumbs up Re: Folding@Home on the PS3- Join Team AP

Well, has anyone seen the Team APi League Table recently?
I'm gradually catching up to MCW, he's on 59 and I'm on 32 Work Units completed, so I'm getting there, lol.
Still quite a while behind Lyn though as he's currently on 182

These are the top 5 Folders and the number of Work Units (WUs) they have completed.
  • Username - WUs Completed
  1. lyndonAP - 186
  2. MCWHAMMER - 59
  3. Jay290783 - 32
  4. TwIzTd - 21
  5. RobCoxy - 13
Make sure you keep up the good work people. Let's keep climbing that Team Rank from our current position of 3,647 of 70,632 all the way to number 1, ok?


Jay

You forget, Rob, we're competing against other teams- not each other.

Mike, did you not get things figured out yet with your computer and the folding?

Besides, if we increase the competition between our team members, that will pump up the amount of completed WUs thus in turn shooting us up the team ranks.
It's all worth it in the end

Thumbs up Re: Folding@Home on the PS3- Join Team AP

I realize we are not competing here, a fact that escapes most of our members brains (), but I just wanted to congratulate you Lyndon, on hitting the 200 W.U. mark! Excellent job. You were the first one to start folding on your PS3, while most of us couldn't figure out how to get the thing to work. You've never wavered from your task, so you deserve a thumbs up!

I am pleased with everyone who has signed up to fold with Absolute Playstation, and it is great to see that we are all regularly contributing (aside from poor old Mike_Capozzi, ha ha).

When I purchased my PS3, way before folding@home was released to its owners, I never would have thought I would be doing something constructive and helpful with my PS3. But lookey at me, I'm a great person... see? See!!?
lol

well take a looksy at me. I'm not far behind you now MCW, I'm on 47 and you're on 61. I should TECHNICALLY be on 49 because of the name mixup thingy, but i'll let that slide.
Still gonna take a while to catch Lyn though.

And regardless of what people says, it IS a competition.
By being a competition between our Team, we Fold more (to try to beat eachother) which leads to a greater accumulation of Folds, thus rocket boosting our Team up the Team Ranking.

And anyone who says different I say to you lol

You have a point. I see it as a competiton i must admit.
But the most important thing is that were helping mankind defeat terrible diseases such as cancer and Parkinsons. Remember that.
