| Welcome aboard, Don- good to see someone new in the folding. Well past time for a stats update- we are now sitting at 1319 out of 97,344 teams! Looking at one of the alternate sites they give now when updating their stats, we should be able to jump another 9 ranks in about a day with steady folding! |

| Talking about the site, they've updated it havent they, the Folding@Home official page that is.......Looks good..... |

| I haven't looked at their main page for some time now, really- just used the menu link to get to the stats page. I must say they have improved it quite a bit with the menu links along the top and linking to the different version of the site along the left. The yellow dots on the globe are PS3s that are folding- gives a bit of an idea as to where the majority of people on the project are from. Blue dots are just to show other areas with some population. |

| If there was a possibility of that happening mine would be a molten lump by now- it's on 24/7 doing the folding when I'm not gaming on it. There's no fear of it overheating on you. |

I run mine for about half a day at a time, and have never run into any overheating problems. My PS3 is sitting vertically, on top of my other electronic devices. Quote:
Also, some other websites (Not in English) have done tests to try and kill PS3's by putting them in extreme heat conditions, where surely they'd break, but even if your house was 100+ degrees, the thing will survive. Fans kick in, they built a tank of a system after they saw what happened with the 360. No way could Sony blow even more money than they already had. Sorry I haven't been around as much guys, After Christmas, got some games, and have also been folding as always, I'm sure you've noticed. So, you can always send me a message on PSN (Name: mcw1011). Getting Burnout: Paradise when it comes out, hope to drive around and crash into some of you guys and gals on there! |

You need to get back into leaving your PS3 on for Folding, ay Rob? Quote:
I'm really going to enjoy Paradise City. Especially smashing so many wonderful people into teeny tiny piles of metal. Slightly used second hand car parts anyone? A few people here won't be needing them that's for sure Let's burn rubber.....! |

Be fun to race ya. If you're as good a driver as a shooter, we're all in trouble.Quote:
The hard part will be resisting ramming some of you into walls (J/K)! No, I'll race clean, so long as you guys do. I can't predict traffic patterns though, ya never know what'll happen. Oh, and just to stay on the thread topic... um... Folding@Home. |

| Another stats update for everyone- we now sit at 1300 out of 99,476 teams! However, I've noticed we seem to be slowly losing folders instead of gaining. According to the stats page, we have 11 active folders in the last 50 days yet we have 19 names on the team list. ![]() Don, I've noticed your name isn't there even though you did say you signed up. Did you leave your ID as PS3? Did you put the team number in the Identity section? |

| I have two names there... Buni_Bogopa and shaddow |

| The one's that bother me are the ones who are active on the forum, and have PS3's, but only have 1 unit done. It's not that hard to do really. I'm calling you out: shootemhigh At least get 2 units done, you're making our team look bad Mike_Capozzi Christhegit . |

| I would be careful of pointing fingers energy prices in the uk have risen by just over a third so it would be very expensive to leave my console on over night i'll join your team though i'll leave it on while at work can you please give me instructions on how to do this. |
|
#168

| Full instructions are at the front of the thread Sam- complete with pictures. Before leaving the Identity menu you may want to change the Donor to your PSN name- that's done in the first choice of the Identity menu. |

| Anyone having problems with PS3 Folding lately? I have been unable to download a new work unit, having just finished one the other day. This has been going on for about 3 days now for me. It keeps failing, and retrying. Over on the Stanford website a couple of days ago, they made a news post that their "PS3 Servers were getting hit hard", and they're working to fix the issues. Has anyone else been stuck between work units or anything? I'm sure it'll start working for me soon, just curious about you guys' situation. |

| I did have one spot where the system was having trouble geting a work unit sent back and was retrying. Seems to be working ok now however. Stats update again- we are currently 1,284 out of 101,464 teams. |

Of course, as soon as I posted above that I was having problems, ten minutes later it was finally able to deliver the work unit and start a new one. So, everything is back to normal now. |
