Count on my CPU squad.
My GPU is not good enough for HCC so I will be CPU only.
Which CPU project might yield the best results?

Hm, looks like my cards are supported. I wonder why I didn't know about this before?

Do they not have a Linux GPU client?

Myself and my army are in! We don't have to individually join, correct? As for GPU crunching, I believe it's Windows only at the moment.

AFAIK only the TeAm has to join ... 
You are on the TeAm, you are in!

I assume we will need to be at max point production by the time the race starts?

Yes... Only the team has to join and all of your members are "automatically in".... :-)
It's a team challenge, so all credits of your members will be in the teamstats, when they get granted in the challenge time!

Looks like I'm peaking at 45K ppd. The TeAm ppd seems to be going down the last 3-days. Pre-race jitters or lack of enthusiasm for the race? 
I'm all in.

Well, hopefully someone was caching CPU-results to make a dump after race-start, but personally hadn't the time for this since took part in a race in Einstein@home.
Have aborted the remaining Einstein-work so should be fully WCG for the race.

All my heavy hitters are in the race. Including my 3 Radeons and the GTX 580.

Gah, 2600k was still running Correlizer - should be moving over in the next hour or two after it clears its short queue of the WU's.
Bringing up the ol' 6700 w/a 6770 for the duration of the race for little extra oomph. 2k8R2 is installed, just has ~253MB of updates to download and apply Should be crunching away in a couple hours.
Interesting note - my GT240 GPU can do HCC, but the GTS250 cannot. Must have been some small tweak to that G92 derivative that allowed for newer CUDA code.
GPU's in - 5850, 6770, GT240. Thinking about firing up the 6570 - sure, why not?

Nice little graph of all of the calculations done for each project over the years. Looks like our big push there helped in some part of the 142,770 years of computations.
