B is for Bob, right?

We are gonna kick some alien arse.

Let's get this thing going, where are the new team naming threads?



Thansk for setting up the teams, smokeball, they are amazingly well balanced.

Darn...and I had some good names picked out for "E" :)

That's some mind-boggling statistics manipulation you've done there! Let me guess, English major? :)

Let's get those engines started!

I actually just looked to see who was on what team myself. I see immediate grounds for a protest! :Q

ConfusedBW and TeAm Smokeball are on the same team. I can hear the screams and shouts already.....FIXED, FIXED!

Edit: Disregard. :)

I'm not sure if I will be outputting any WUs after tomorrow. It's looking like starting KLinux on the Wildnet computers once a day or so may be wearing out their floppy drives. I already knew it wore out the floppy disks, but the drives get ~1/8 the use.

Nothing is definitive yet. I'll try to have this cleared up by sometime tomorrow. But you might want to consider what the race would look like without me. :(

For everybodys information:

5.9 ??? Team Anandtech@CU Boulder ??? Ken_g6

Ken, you are on my team and I say we will go on with the race whatever your circumstance.

Floppy drives are very cheap. I see them listed on PriceWatch for only $3 each + shipping. If that is the only way you have to run SETI, you might want to just buy a 1/2 dozen and change 'em out when they burn out. But no worries, just do the best you can. That is all that can be expected of anyone. ;)

Good Luck!

:)

Now I know it is fixed!

OhioDude, and Smokeball!

The two stats generating guru's on the same team!

If HellBurner and Orange Kid were playing I bet they would be on Team C too! ;)


Poor Soni left out again..... :(

<Cardassian fatalism>Why bother racing? We already know Team B is going to win, as networkman has always been on the winning team.</Cardassian fatalism>

:D

We will race because there is still a chance for the other teams to beat on each other!

I see that the Empire will have to make an unholy alliance with the Federation...so be it! The threat from the other teams makes it necessary.

:D

Good job to all those putting this together!

<< Poor Soni left out again..... >>


Thanks Grant :p

I guess I will have to depend on "the Empire will have to make an unholy alliance with the Federation" :D

This time Networkman will not be allowed to win:)

Never thought my beloved Federation would have to make an alliance with the Cardassian Empire. :D

But, while we're at it: Gul Dukat, let's show those who don't believe in us what we are capable of. :cool:

Who knows where our dance will lead to. :)

Oh really.. I have it on good authority from an as-yet-unnamed source that he will. :Q ;)
