Hooters News Service In a startling turn of events, the Dutch Power Cows (DPCs) have systematically, and dramatically knocked Team AnandTech out of their rightful spot at the top of the daily rankings for the RC5-64 encryption project.
Insiders say that this disaster appears to be a combination of aggressive recruiting efforts by the DPCs at a time when the horsepower of the TA membership has been spread thin over a multitude of projects. It?s sad, but true, that even with a forum membership base over 30,0000 in number, Team AnandTech has only been able to muster approximately 600 daily participants in RC5.
Those close to the project have speculated that this low participation number is due to the mis-conception that cracking RC5 actually involves a high degree of effort. The facts say otherwise. In this reporters mind, it is clearly a very simple, and painless installation. In the words of one member, ?Hell, if Paulson can do it, anybody can.?
All the while, the DPC crew has been invading the AnandTech Distributed Computing Forum with their on-going taunts and bragging; thumbing their noses at the once proud and mighty Team AnandTech RC5 effort. To quote one member of the DPC?s ?Neener, neener, we?re number one, and you can?t do anything about it!?
In the words of one of the more vocal, and frustrated members of Team AnandTech, ?How can we let this happen? We have the largest most active forums on the web! We NEED MORE MEMBERS! And, it is so easy to get started! This is an outrage!!!!!!?
Damn, people, this is all over the news wires. We have been embarrassed. Will you stand for this, or will you stand up and show these interlopers who the real boss is? Let?s get a couple hundred more people on board, and get back on top where we belong! We have the power here among the membership, let?s fire it up, and SHOW the DPCs what a REAL smackdown is like.
It?s easy to get started, and works automatically once it?s installed. Everything you ever wanted to know, but were afraid to ask is at http://www.anandtech.com/rc5.html. If that isn?t enough, we have a forum full of the most active, helpful people you?d ever want to meet: http://forums.anandtech.com/categories.cfm?catid=39.
This is so easy, what are you waiting for?
