BBR Link Here

As some of you who lurk in our forums may already know, Bandai has to cease production for a while. While this is bad news for us at BBR and for the SETI community at large, it means that you have a more comfortable lead on us than you originally thought. Looks like we're gonna have to hunt you down and pass you the old fashion way. Oh, well. It was fun while it lasted!

I am sorry to hear that, It's much more fun to complete against a team at full strength then a weaken team but your team is still a very powerful one and we will not take you lightly.

Just updated the Top 25 Team Report

Without Bandai our two teams are almost dead even in strength which has been the case for a very long time. ;)

As you may or may not know, Bandai uses the computing resources for the "entity" that he works for. I don't think he has ever come out and said who he works for, but it is obviously a large company or agency with all those computers.

As projects come along, or resources need to be shifted, he is forced to disable his crunchers so that their work may take priority (those bastards!!!:)). Well, whatever his employer is doing now is going to be incompatible with him running SETI for the time being.

Hopefully, he won't be gone for too long. We love those massive daily dumps.

But, as smokeball said, without him our teams are pretty even. Unless something drastic happens, we won't be passing you guys any time soon.

Hope he gets his fleet up and munchin' again, I don't mind being passed if the other team earns it. ;)
