Just signed up today, bit late i know but i have only got the PS3 online perminantly in the last day or so. No more lugging it downstairs etc.

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

looks a bit funky with all the lights is that who's on line or just on folding home ?

okay i would start using it more but scared of leaving me ps3 on over night i dont want to come down stais and its on fire or anything like that i would probably cry.

If it catches fire, I will personally buy you a new PS3. That's how confident I am that that would never happen (If your Playstation is properly ventilated, and not wrapped in towels like many people's Xbox 360's).

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.

Molten lump, that's funny.

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!

I hope to get back into the folding soon, havent done a proper WU in quite a long time....... Too many good games out, cant stop gaming.....

It is, if Lyn's PS3 is still running strong, theres no fear of leaving yours on for a night or two i should think.....

Hope to see you on there Matt.....

Well mine still runs 24/7 and it's going strong.

You need to get back into leaving your PS3 on for Folding, ay Rob?
ooh, Burning up the streets with fellow motor heads.
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.....!

Understandable no one's mad at ya.

Got her preordered. Just waiting to pick it up Be fun to race ya. If you're as good a driver as a shooter, we're all in trouble.

It's been a long while since I've played a good racing/driving game, I'm glad that you all will be online with me We'll have to organize some races. I've been holding off on playing the demo too much to avoid spoiling the game. I'd rather wait for it to come out.

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.

Between You and Lyn and MCW's tallys, theres about 1000 WU, is that a record ?????
Well done guys......

Pheww, thats good to know....Lol....

Yeah, will be awesome racing you and Jay and everyone, cant wait. And i havent had as much experience with drivers so i dont think you're in too much trouble.

Exactly....Lol

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:

At least get 2 units done, you're making our team look bad .

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.

sorry mate i looked at the announcement but couldnt see anything to go on to to register just news bullitins though me just being a muppet but thanks mate ill get right on it when i get home. Youve set up something pretty damn good there Mr Lyndon every credit to you mate.

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.

That's awesome. I'm so proud .

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.

i joined the team today. i finished one fold just need to upload it though.

It sometimes does that to me but i just restart the application and tada a new WU is found......

if im playing a game ofline can i have folding home running in the background somehow?
